My kitty cat had the opposite reaction to bleach: he acted like it was catnip. He would roll around and purr if I happened to be cleaning with it or using it some way -- wanted me to rub his head with the bleach smell! On the other hand, he was completely indifferent to actual catnip. Go figure. But, I think this cat was actually possessed. Defecating all over the place? Not the soul of a real cat.
Your cat is not normal either if bleach=catnip. LOL
He didnt die for at least five minutes ..."
I agree.
I once had a cat that loved licking the powder off the top of a Comet can. Couldn't get enough of it.
Ya know...now that I think about it...
I had scrubbed one area of the floor with bleach the other day, and last night I caught Tam rolling all around that spot, just purring his fool head off. I couldn't remember dropping any catnip or anything there, and in any case, he's not all THAT excited by catnip.
I think you've solved my mystery...
