perfume or some type of smell that pleases you and me, but not necessarily to kitty.
A cats' sense of smell is much more sensitive than a human's. Cat litter that is drenched in a pleasant (for humans) scent may be very offensive to your cat. If her sense of smell is overwhelmed, she'll avoid the cat litter box.
If you suspect your cat doesn't like her cat litter, this can be an easy problem to fix. For example, if you faithfully supplied her with a brand she liked, but you decided to switch brands, she'll

to get kitty's approval:
Set up two litter boxes. Each box should have a different cat litter brand. Leave the boxes down for a few days. At the end of your test period, see which box accumulated the most deposits. If one box was preferred over the other, you have your winner. You may need to repeat this test a few times before your cat decides you got it right.
