Is it normal that my cat loves fires?

I have a very loyal cat. In the winter, I have a fire in my fireplace every Friday night. My cat jumps up on the sofa with me and is just mesmerized by the flames, the crackling wood, the warmth, and the slight smoky smell. She thinks she is in heaven. Is this normal for cats?

  • Does she ask you for a nice 12 year old scotch during these events?

    • Nope. She doesn't like alcohol. That leaves more for me.

    Of course, my cats and dog love the fireplace. My oldest cat will only go outside in the summer so she can bask in the sun.

    Keep your cat away from matches. It'll burn down your house.

    • My kitty doesn't associate matches with fire because I light the fire with a propane torch.
