Why force it......?

Both Monty and Freddie prefer to drink directly from the tap (Faucet, US. Force it; geddit?).

Monty outside (thank goodness), and Freddie inside. I've tried to explain to them that it's exactly the same water as I put in their bowls, but they insist!

    They are the same the world over. Our cats do that when given the chance.

    They are adorable and like you said, why force it? I've definitely started my day off with a smile. Merci.

    my grand-cat Hank plays this same game...stalking the kitchen tap until you turn it on, then jumping away when she has convinced you she needed a drink but doesn't...only to return the second the water is turned off...repeat, repeat, repeat...(and I do...sigh).

    Doesn't everyone have grand cats, we have two - consolation prize for no grand kids!

    I don't think of Hanky-pants (or my grand-puppy Daisy) as consolations at all Rabby...babysitting is a lot easier!

    They all do it. It's SO much fresher straight from the tap.
