This is Charlie drinking water. She doesn’t always do it this way. Sometimes she just does a “test dip”: dip paw, lick off water, then drink water like normal. I’ve never seen Kennedy drink water like this, so I was just curious if anyone else’s cat does this?
Kennedy walked by at the end of the video, which is what Charlie’s looking at as she turns her head :)

LOL! No, mine don’t do that. It’s awfully cute, though. :-)

So cute! What a silly girl. I can’t imagine that she ingests much water that way…but I’m sure she’s having fun!

A friend of mine has a cat that does exactly that. She has to leave a couple of glasses of water around for the cat to dip into. If the water level gets too low, the cat complains, so it is easier to have several around.

Taffy does that occasionally. Purrcy, on the other hand, goes through phases where he “plays” in the water bowl and splashes out all of the contents all over the kitchen floor. Seriously – I will walk by the kitchen and he will be sitting with his front feet IN the empty water bowl, surrounded by a huge puddle.

So my blog about my cats told me I might be interested in this particular post. And it’s true. I am. Because my cat does the same thing sometimes. Not all the time, but sometimes, and I had just posted about it when I clicked over to this video.
The end, from a random drive-by commenter.
