Dear Fellow Bloggers,
I'm not lying when I say that I have a nicotine / smoking addicted cat. Under NO circumstances, did my family or I try to encourage our cats nasty habit. Believe me, she did this by herself... let me tell you how.
Both my Nanna and my Poppa (granddad) are very heavy smokers, and would often leave their ash-tray (unguarded) on the coffee table or the kitchen top. After a nice cup of tea or a general chit chat, someone would go to clean the ashy-tray out, only to discover that it was already empty. Not a spot of ash in sight, the tray looked like it had already been washed. That is until we found my cat Saphie! When Saphie says "Going to powder my nose" I didn't think it would be literally!!!
I would find Saphie the cat with the smokey-powdered ash on her whiskers and fur. That was when we discovered that my cat had a nicotine problem. My Nanna then made the stupid mistake leaving her cigarettes (again... unguarded) on the coffee table or in the kitchen, and when we returned, Saphie had clawed her way through the cigarette packet and eaten all of the 'fags'. It's absolutely disgusting!
So we threw the ash-tray away, made all of our visitors smoke outside and made Saphie sit in another room when smokers wanted to smoke in the garden. But whenever we had a 'smoking' guest round our house, Saphie would meow constantly, and roll across the floor as if she were a dog. And when someone would go to stroke her, she would leap onto their smoking hand and lick their smoking fingers (the fingers that they would use to smoke with).
We can't exactly go to the vets and say "May cat has a smoking problem" or "Is there a kitty rehab?". There is just no use! We have tried to get her to stop, and to not invite someone who smokes until she has forgotten the taste. But I don't think it'll ever work. It's Amy Winehouse turned into a cat.
Thanks, Clover Clark.
