It's nice when the apartment smells like oranges or tangerines. It gives you a feeling of freshness and improves your mood.

Fluffy animals hate the smell of citrus fruits. And the pet owner should take this into account.

Do not allow the following aromas to appear in your apartment, otherwise you will make the life of your four-legged friend unbearable.

Not all people know that cats can't stand the smell of citrus fruits. We are talking about oranges, tangerines, lemons, grapefruits, pomelo, etc.

Try not to eat these fruits when you are in the same room with your pet. Also, do not use the corresponding essential oils.

Coffee

Many people love this invigorating and pleasant smelling drink.

But cats don't like the aroma of coffee. The fact is that caffeine is a compound that poses a serious danger to fluffy creatures.

Nature has made it so that cats try to avoid places where coffee beans are located.

Vinegar

This liquid is often used in everyday life. But you just need to remember that cats hate the smell of vinegar.

Chili pepper

If you often use this pepper, keep in mind that its smell is very unpleasant for cats.

Also, do not forget that the compounds contained in the product are dangerous for furry four-legged friends. First of all, we are talking about capsaicin, which should not get into the pet's eyes under any circumstances.

Lavender

The plant smells very nice. But only for people.

It is not a good idea to grow lavender in an apartment where a cat lives.
