Anyone else with a tuxedo cat notice that they have a particular smell to their fur - almost like baby powder? Both Tilda and our new kitten Tucker, have this faint smell. Cassie, our other kitten doesn't.

Veronica, it's not the hair color that you're smelling. Probably that particular line of kitties has less (or more?) body odor than others you know of.
I have a cat right now that smells like a sunny day or fresh mowed hay;
I have had other cats who actually had body odor (not bad, but obvious).
My boy Rocky always smells kind of dusty, but then he spends alot of time digging for moles or voles or whatever is out in the yard.
You know that is funny. My cat Bo who is a bit of a tux cat smells so good! Kinda sweet as well. But now it could be where they hang out too. Maybe picking up laundry smells, the cat litter?
I love to bury my head in their fur when they first come in from outside when it has been cold. they smell so fresh.....sigh!
Yes, Brandi, exactly. That's what my tortie is like. a scent of fresh air.
I have a tuxedo cat but have not noticed that he smells any different than the other three. All are indoor cats. I'll have to do a smell test when I get home tonight!
My gray tuxedo usually smells very bad actually - can you say anal glands? ;) But I love him desperately and now that he is dying of cancer, I can't imagine not having old stinky butt around.

(Not to mention, she was the first cat that I wasn't allergic to at all. :) )
Miss Kitty isn't a tux and she smells good. Except when she has catfood breath.
My cat Aki right now (the one in my avatar) Kind smells like a little bit of advantage,lavender, and dirt. Fleas are here bit early due to a warm snap we had last week. they came in one day with fleas attached to their ears. Yuck!
My angel Tuxedo kitty, Kazootie, smelled like wild strawberries. I loved to bury my nose in her fur. She was an indoor only cat.
That's exactly how Trixie, my formally dressed beloved smells. Julio, my other cat, smells like feet (but not in a bad way ;)).Quote:

Maybe my smeller's malfunctioning.
