RICE. The name Rice in Ireland is derived from the native Gaelic O'Maolchraoibhe Sept of Counties Down and Armagh. This Sept name was also anglicized as Mulcreevy. The Rices of Munster Province are usually of Welsh origin, the name being taken from settlers named Ap Rhys. The name Rhys is also used.
Ear Mites. Your cat's ears are the perfect place for a tiny ear mite to settle down and raise a family, or a few dozen of them. These parasites feed on the wax and oils in your cat's ears, creating a brownish, coffee-ground-like discharge that can give off a foul odor.
Halitosis is the most common cause of bad cat smell. Halitosis could be the result of dental decay, oral cancer or even kidney disease. Your cat's bad smell could be the result of systemic illness, especially if accompanied by feline symptoms such as sneezing. Systemic illness often causes severe halitosis.
