I sprained a wrist last week and have been doing various things to treat it, including putting "Icy Hot" or "Traumeel" on it while wearing a brace. 2 of our cats have reacted rather oddly to these ointments, scratching at my brace/arm and even once trying to bite my arm. A handkerchief with the smell of the ointment lay on my quilt for a little while and after that my cat went after that part of the quilt, pulling at it with her claws. She got very agitated when I made her stop.
Of course, I am NOT letting the cats lick any of either ointment but I did not see anything on either list of ingredients that obviously would be of interest to a cat, so I'm a bit puzzled. Anyone else ever experienced this or know what it is they might be after?
