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!

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

  7. 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).

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

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

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