    I read somewhere that cats love shoes because they not only smell like us but like our feet, the bodypart that is usually closest to them and thus the most familiar. I have no source or evidence for this claim but it seems plausible.

    I once caught my cat sitting with her head stuck fully into one of my shoes. Unfortunately my laugh startled her and she ran off.

    Noki is so cute!

    We refer to our boy, Noodle, as a foot gremlin. He’s always hanging around peoples’ feet and shoes. Sometimes he’ll just sit on my foot while I’m standing around.

    Zoey, my cat loves shoes. Mine, guests. She loves all the new smells everytime we have people come over or we come back from outside.

    I find that my cat also likes my jacket when it is off. To the point I will throw my jacket across a room and the cat will run after it and lay next to it
