mephitic \muh-FIT-ik\, adjective:
1. Offensive to the smell; as, mephitic odors.
2. Poisonous; noxious.

Mephitic is the adjective form of mephitis, "a foul-smelling or noxious exhalation from the earth; a stench from any source," from the Latin.

Newton's litter box had quite a mephitic quality this morning...I think it was all the salmon-treats from last night.

He's still got enough feline in him that he'd just freak if he saw one.

oh no, that'd be just mean....Newt doesn't have an environment in which "natural things" can happen except for the occasional bug.

I think a Robo-mouse is the answer.
