I was just wondering this weekend how he was going. Poor thing is in the wars a lot isn't he? I think I mentioned bleach and cleaners etc as I recently discovered that my cat has a bleach "addiction", she goes crazy over it. Perhaps Han might have got it splashed on him if he has similar, my cat nearly knocked me over trying to get to the bleach when I used it that one time (and then tried to lick the bottle!!! ) so that could be a reason. It is hard to keep an eye on cleaners, they all like to use bleach etc because of the ease of using it.

Yes I read up on cats and bleach after you mentioned it, PP, and it seems a common addiction. Probably why ours used to go crazy if we'd been in the pool, nibbling our feet, and also rolled around on our Sg cleaner's flip-flops!

That's so weird. I've had a couple of cats who would freak out over Vicks Vap-o-rub, or anything camphor/eucalyptus/Tiger Balmy, but never bleach. I remember one night I had a chest cold, slathered myself with Vicks and fell asleep propped up on pillows, and when I woke up a cat was wrapped around my neck like a scarf. One whiff of the stuff and she was like a junky.
A woman walked into a pub and asked the barman for a double entendre. So he gave it to her.

Wow Lili really? Vaporub? Every cat I've ever known hates the stuff, we used to use it as a deterrent. Strange little creatures aren't they.

I've been known to put Tiger Balm on the door of the Tibetan Cabinet to stop Han licking it!
