Cats can overstimulate their olfactory senses, causes them to have the same effect as when you get pepper in your nose, this is their physical response to that feeling.
Edit: I love when people downvote objectively true information. I never said it was the only cause or the main cause, but it is a cause. I know this from my own 35 years of personal experience dealing with cats.
Sorry, but it’s not “objectively true information” if you have no evidence to share. You think it’s true, and it might be, but how can you be sure? How do you know it’s olfactory overload, not just something your cat likes to do in response to smells? You deserve the downvotes.
I’m not doing that. I’m not claiming anything. All I’m saying is that your lived experience doesn’t equal objective truth. You understand that, right? That you could always be wrong?
I could always be right, and frankly I’ll take my lived experience including my literal decades of experience including interactions with both hundreds of career professionals and even more cats, none of which I can “prove”, yet I’ll take that over the non experience of some belligerent wannabe intellectual on the Internet.
Just stop for one second, calm down, and realise: I’ve never claimed you are wrong. You’re getting worked up because people don’t immediately believe every word you say. Is that such a hard thing for you to accept?
Being an anecdote doesn’t disprove anything, if anything it’s one point of data towards the opposite. And I have tens of the same anecdotes that have been backed up by veterinary professionals, that makes it objectively factual data even if you don’t want to believe it. That’s the beauty about reality, you don’t have to believe it to be true.

Care to share any evidence towards the kicks being triggered by olfactory overload?

This is the literal definition of an anecdote.
Being an anecdote doesn’t disprove anything, if anything it’s one point of data towards the opposite.

You just say this every time anyone asks you for evidence, don’t you? Well, I’m glad you found more people to scream at.
It’s like you can’t even read, I get that you might be struggling given your obvious inadequacies but 99% of reading is comprehension and yours sucks.
I’m shocked you’re not from hexbear.
Yeah, sorry you’ll have to log in over here instead of on your main account to follow me.
You took that to mean I’m a hexbear user? No, I’m saying you act like all of them.
