It's been a little quiet in here and I thought I would post something. My   
   ability to post runs in streaks. For only Cat fans, this pertains to my   
   dogs though.   
      
   Being winter up here in NY, drying of skin and lips is common. Well lips   
   being a bit chapped, I decided to grab one of those supermaket specials as   
   You are checking out, I grabbed a small tube of Carmex for 99cents and last   
   night before going to bed, I put some of this cherry flavored Carmex on my   
   lips. Right after I put it on, the circus started. My two pugs started   
   jumping up on the bed and going right for the smell of that cherry carmex.   
   It was crazy. It was like I had rubbed a prime rib with bacon all over my   
   lips. It was actually bizarre, I could not keep them away. Ducked under the   
   pillow and they still tried to attack me. For some reason they just love   
   whatever the fragrance is in that stuff. Who would have thought. It was   
   like having two pugs glued to my face unless I hid. When I got up, Lo-Ci   
   went right at me again. It was funny I will have to admit, but I have never   
   seen them so wild for anything, even food. When they were attacking me,   
   Jumping back and forth over my head trying to get at me. I was laughing more   
   like I was being tickled than being attacked. 8)   
      
   Does anyone else have animals that are attracted to certain smells? Had a   
   Siamese once, who as soon as You brought out a piece of Ham. You were   
   taking Your life in your hands. Another one as a kid, loved turkey. Not   
   nice to say, but my father would literally throw the cat down cellar when   
   it was thanksgiving. And by the time he shut the door, the cat was already   
   up the stairs and in the kitchen sniffin out the Bird  It was always   
   funny to watch Dad do battle with the cat on any Holiday we had Turkey....   
      
   Have a Good One!
