Whose that drinking out of my faucet??!! by: Earle Atterton
My black Bombay was taught to drink water out of the purified faucet on the kitchen sink. Since then, he won't drink any other way. He turns his head upside down/sideways and consumes much more water than he ever did out of a bowl. Water is good for a cat's kidneys, so he's got the right idea. His name is Radio because he never stops talking. He loves to travel by car or airplane, which seems to confuse many air travelers at the airport.

Saphire the kitten by: Anonymous
I have an eight week old kitten (Saphire) that does the same thing. She always has fresh water, but she insists on drinking out of the glass or water bottle im drinking from. I guess she thinks if I'm drinking out of it it must be ok.

About wet paws by: Zoe
Hi Toni: I would love to see your cat do this drinking with the paw thing (way cute). I have never seen a cat do that! Maybe if you got one of those new fangled electric cat drinking fountains your cat would change his way of drinking the water?

My cats wet paws by: Toni
Speaking of cats drinking habits. My cat, Tuxedo, insists on dipping his paw in the water bowl and drinking the water from his paw. I tried changing water bowls. It's cute but I worry that he's not getting enough water. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Once you get a cat started drinking out of a particular vessel, I guess that they just keep using that vessel.

A cats drinking problem by: Amanda
Hi Janelle: What a touching story. It's nice to here that there is a happy ending to it. You are a good mother! My cat refuses to drink anything but fresh water. After the first drink its all over. When he returns to the water bowl latter in the day he smacks it across the tile floor to notify us that its time to refill it for another drink.
