"Curiously, infected men found cat urine odor more pleasant than uninfected men; in women, the opposite occurred."
I read somewhere that they sometimes put this odor in perfumes (such as Chanel 5), I find it interesting to see this process must make it less attractive to women and more to to men, I wonder if they also put it in men's perfumes.
- deeviant 12y agoI've had cats for all my life and I would assume to be "infected" by this point, but I can say, without reservation, I have never enjoyed the smell of cat urine.

- viggity 12y agoIIRC, the infection rate in the US is relatively low, but other countries (Brazil) are extremely high.
- aaronem 12y agoIf you’ve never had or lived around outdoor cats, you’re almost certainly not infected.
