| Bring it on, Woman! This betta be your A-game. |
I’m famous for never drinking water but I do sneak some in a most unusual way. Forget Mr. Drinkwell and his 360s. No offense Keith Davitt but your handmade ceramic fountains are no match for my own human drinking fountain. It’s taken TW about a hunnert years to finally document it on video.
This all started 4 or 5 years ago. TW had just brushed those pathetic excuses humans call teeth. She was rinsing her mouth out when I jumped on the counter to watch her. Not only was I watching her, but I was trying to bat the water as she spat it out. She laughed so hard she practically sprayed water all over the bathroom. From then on, no matter what I’m doing or how deeply I’m sleeping, when I hear TW brushing her teeth, I run into the bathroom. TW thought the original game wasn’t very hygienic, so she started pouring fresh water into the tub for me. Check out my form! This should be an Olympic event cos I’d bring home the Gold.
She’s been promising for years she was going to get a video of our game but didn’t know if she could throw the water and film it at the same time. TW will do anything to make me drink H2O; now she's my human water fountain. She pours the water and I bat it into my mouth. Aren’t I talented? See for yourself.
Do you like to play in the tub or with water?
You know, you are VERREH lucky she has good aim and restraint; just sayin'. Not all peeps are nice like that...Mommy.
ReplyDeleteBut Holy Cod, you have trained TW to a level we though was impossible in peeps...you are a GENIUS.
You are a talented kitteh
ReplyDeleteHow funny, CK - you're batting at the water like it's a toy! I'd run away from it.
ReplyDeleteYikes me no like water particularly the stuff in the bath. You are one brave kitty. Have a marvellous Monday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
None of us like water like that but we know other cats do. Pretty cool

You're a very talented kitty, and good job training your human like that. Ours is a little slow to learn new tricks...
ReplyDeleteThat's very talented! And you're very brave, CK. We are afraid of vertical water like that.
ReplyDeleteIzzy drinks from the tub faucet itself. He cries at the bathroom door or from on top of the toilet seat and i come and turn the water on as a light stream or a slightly heavy drip. This is his main way to drink water. Only very seldom will he drink out of the water bowl.
ReplyDeleteCats don't like their water next to their food because they consider that unsanitary since they bury their food in the wild and it may go bad and pollute the water. Also cats originated in the desert and don't need a lot of water if they are eating canned or fresh food. They get there water there. But if they only get dry food they will need plenty of water.
You are definitely talented, CK! And what a great human water fountain you've got :-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun game! Sadly, we do not have a tub but I do enjoy playing with water. If Mommy doesn't turn on the tap for me, I'll play with the water in the water bowls (and make a huge mess. Hahaha), much to Mommy's annoyance.
ReplyDelete...Tutu
OMC, CK! You are just SO adorable and unique! What a hoot!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a fun game! I hope you make her play it over and over and over.. hee hee
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun ! I love to play with water too. Purrs Zorro
ReplyDeleteGo CK go! I din't really like the water that much, but I do like a good game of tub hockey!
ReplyDeleteWOW!!!!!
ReplyDeleteCK, you're turned drinking water into an olympic sport! I may have to try that with Waffles. ...after I tie his paws behind his back.
heh, heh
; ) Katie
....boy, if anyone who reads this comment doesn't really "know" us.... yikes! ;)
OMC -= CK you are sooooooooo funny. We're laughing ourselves silly over here! The One and Only Stunning Cathy Keisha!
ReplyDeleteLove Glogirly's comment too!
That is a really pawsome trick; though, we didn't notice any water actually going into your mouth. Would it not work just as well turning on the faucet in the tub or the sink? Did you ever try to bat the water streams from your Drinkwell 360? We haven't, but some of us will use them to wet a paw and then lick the water off our paw. Enjoy your fun game. You have trained TW very well. Have a great week. Purrs and paw-pats, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
ReplyDeleteDrinking water the CK way!! TW obviously hasn't a clue you're playing her like a strad!!
ReplyDeleteCK, that's IMPRESSIVE!
ReplyDeleteYou are too darned funny!!!!!!!! Maybe you should patent that? MOL
ReplyDeleteMOL! You really made us laugh. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteVery clever of you to train your human that way, CK! We have ours trained to turn on the faucet at the bathroom sink, and we reward her by using the 360 she's so proud of.
ReplyDeleteLove playing in the water! I do the water bit while mum brushes her tooths (no spitting on me allowed).
ReplyDeletePlus after mum is done in the hot rain room, I check out the water on the bottom.

What can mes say!?! CK me is gob smacked!! That is even more cool/weird than Jo-Jo sitting on Mommy's tummy when she is laying on her back reading a book in the bathtub!
ReplyDeleteKisses

That's pawsome, CK! Moosey likes to play with water, too. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for all the purrs and prayers, and for starting that #pawcircle! It is all helping -- Moosey is home, and now we are just waiting for the test results so we can make some decisions.
Woo-hoo! I LOVE videos of you, my darling! I do like to play in the tub, but NOT with any water around, thank you very much!
ReplyDeleteYou know what? A friend of the Human's used to have a big ole boy cat that sat on the sink when her friend (a guy) used the toilet, and the kitty liked to play with (NOT drink!) that stream!!!
Well done CK! You seem to truly enjoy that water game....I've never been near the dreaded tub but then again I do like to play in my water bowl so I am to some extent at least INTERESTED in water!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sammy
That's a fun way to drink water, CK! Jewel likes to stick her paw in the fountain and then lick the water off her paw, so she's kind of unique, too.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for reading my blog and leaving a comment. It is so very appreciated.

ReplyDeleteSilver Cat
Yes, disagreeableness *does* agree wif me--too bad Grumpy Cat already stole that name--it should have been mine!
ReplyDeleteYou've got a very interesting way of drinking water, CK! Glad your mom switched from tooth paste to water! :)
