I spent some time with my sister-in-law's cat and #PicaTheCat has been *studying* my pants and bag with extreme intensity since I came home. It's the next day and she's *still* at it. Her whole body is focused. Like she's reading directions on a tax form.

How much information is she getting? I can't even smell anything there but she is deeply interested in the smell of the "other cat"

I don't think she's being jealous.

@futurebird Pica is getting a report from your sis-in-laws cat on how well your training is going. It's like a 3rd party audit on your proficiency

It's like when I was a teen and my mom would start quizzing me about my friends "where do they live? what kind of shoes do they have? where does their mom work? on and on..."

Only it's just Pica reading the smells of this other cat. Now and then she will look up with her mouth open ... I think to huff the smells more deeply in some cat way.

I tried petting her but she ignored me and kept *smelling*
