Why is my cat suddenly sniffing my bed so much? Is it mating?

Question

My cat has been sniffing my bed for almost an hour, he has never shown such behavior before. He is sniffing my bed crazily, I tried to find something like an insect or a mouse could be hidden in pillows but there was none. Is he doing all this to show that he wants to mate because the weather here is cold and he is single? Please explain this behavior!! Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | 2.7 lbs

Your cat just smells something that you can't and has for one reason or another taken a liking or curiosity to it. I don't think there is any reason to believe it is a mating behavior or because of the weather. Cats can detect small differences in the microenvironment that you and I can't even begin to appreciate. This is why both cats and dog do things that often amaze us.
