Woah almost missed this one! Ummm I'm growing Top 44 right now (check out my grow journal for oodles of pics and talking-ness). The plant stunk during veg - which I didn't expect. I live in a house in a basement, as as soon as people walked downstairs they would comment on it. But it was always explained away like "Oh yeah, we just smoked a bowl"...
A week or so into the flowering cycle, the smell stopped. Even when I really try hard to pull a sniff out of my buds it's a very faint odor. I've been told that in a few weeks, as it gets closer to harvest, the buds will really start to smell. But so far (I'm 3 weeks away from harvest) little smell during flowering. Heavy scent (like plant smell and bud) during veg.
Your cat is cool!
Good luck
