Little stinky here has his name for a reason  :sick:

Every so often he comes over sits on me with an odour of poo. He has a covered tray and I swear the odour just swirls all around it and settles on him causing him to smell. With a bit of airing his pong vanishes and so does the pong in the tray.

I have a couple of "proudly present's" here!  :sick: :rofl: :hug:

Sign of a need to claim their territory more dominantly. Apparently, if a cat covers its mess it is actually more secure than if it doesn't. (So I've read in all the feline psych books anyway.....)

Yep its the naughty love to hate relationship that Gizzy and Yagga have!  :sneaky:  :sick:

He must regularly stomp his way through his mess when covering it then, the little stinker! He was meeping at me this morning because Mog went out and "he wanted to as well!" *stamps tiny paw and looks huffy*

I guess maybe the little guy was taken from his Mum too young and wasn't taught "the basics" particularly well?

Nah! He just stood in some poo!  :evillaugh: :hug:

Some cats cover their poop slightly over, some dig to Oz and some just leave it for all to see! Depend's more on the cats character methinks!  ;)

It's a gross subject but I had to ask, because I don't remember any of my others smelling like this. I guess maybe the little guy was taken from his Mum too young and wasn't taught "the basics" particularly well?

Oh yummy! I just love that anal gland subject!  :sick: :evillaugh: :hug:

I too go with Trigger's poo on paw theory!  ;)

I remember when my Yagga was ever so small, he used to come into bed every night for a cuddle and nap...Then one night he smelt of sh.te!  :evillaugh: Not! He had accompanied cling ons!  :sick: :rofl: :hug:

anal glands maybe?

Can't see any swelling or obvious signs of discomfort. (Sadly, yes I did look..... :sick: I helped in a grooming parlour very briefly on a Christmas build up and got taught to squeeze the dogs glands before bathing. That hasn't gone on my CV oddly enough..... :sick:)

Tiffany has a poo smell sometimes, and I suspect it comes from her paws, after burying without looking where she's treading :sick:

Despite managing to fall into my bath today while I was in it, I've noticed a bit of a smell on Darwin of well, cat poo. Is this common in kittens? He eats and toilets normally, and doesn't have anything on him. (I checked, much to his annoyance.)

Thought I'd ask. I'm not worried because as I said, his "functions" appear to work fine. Just wondering really.
