Just like with flowers, some fruit may smell appealing to your cat while other fruits will make them turn up their noses. Peaches, watermelon, and strawberry all appear to be scents that attract felines. Many cats will avoid the sharp scents of citrus. If they show interest in particular fruit, check with your vet to see if it’s okay to let your cat try them out. -- https://www.hepper.com/smells-that-attract-cats/

My cat always loved to sleep in a freshly made bed. I always assumed he wanted the bed to smell like him again, but maybe he liked the fruity smell of my detergent. :)

One of my cat likes flowers. Whenever we bring home flowers he will come by to smell them and then hang out around them.

We always check every single flower & plant we bring home. We're very careful about this.

Millions of 🍑, 🍑 for me.

[–] ZeroCool@feddit.ch 13 points 1 year ago

Lol. The best part about this comment is that band also wrote a song called "kitty" and it's about wanting to pet a cat.

*ninjas emerge from the peach orchard.

[–] lowleveldata@programming.dev 31 points 1 year ago

where can I subscribe to regular cat & peach photos

[–] rosymind@leminal.space 16 points 1 year ago

Maybe the peaches (small and furry) are close enough to kittens, so instinct kicked in and they're like "idk why but I need to protect and cuddle these things"

[–] Piecemakers3Dprints@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Please, tell me they renamed her Peaches? 🤗🥹

[–] Rolando@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No way, they should call the cat Mario.

[–] Piecemakers3Dprints@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

To be fair, Bowser loves Peaches more demonstrably, but they're both infatuated with the icon of her rather than her actual self. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[–] Speiser0@feddit.de 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For Mario, I totally agree. But Bowser is a king himself, so why would he fall in love with a princess just because she's a princess? I think his plans to marry her are rather for geopolitical reasons: A marriage would lead to a merge of both kingdoms, and the first born Bowser Jr. (who doesn't have Peach in his blood line) would eventually inherit this bigger kingdom.

[–] Piecemakers3Dprints@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Neither loves Peach for who she is, but rather who they envision her to be.

Gurl, mario needs to save himself from bowsers castle before he can learn to save someone else.

Mario needs to save himself from the pointless questing at endless castles. Bowser needs to save himself from his own tacked-on pomp & patriarchy so he can love the tiny koopa inside his overlarge shell. The both of them have some work to do. Meanwhile, Luigi & Toad could use a fuckin' buddy movie. Just sayin'.

Why is it always on a news paper?

[–] instamat@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

The cat and the peaches like to stay informed

[–] Rockyrikoko@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago

Yeah... I think this cat, like most, enjoys laying on random pieces of paper. Peaches just happen to get placed there also

[–] Etterra@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

My guess, probably just likes his they smell and/or feel. Bonus points for laying on paper that's not your tax returns.
