Water Bowls


Hello everyone,

Sorry i've not been on for a while.
All babies are fine.

OK now the question
Can anyone please tell me why my benson likes water bowls!!
He knocks then over, tipped one down the stairs, sat in it, and tried to killed me with one!!
Now i do love my benny so much and i am a good mummy to him but i dont get why he tries to kill me

Does anyone have a cat that loves water???

Re: Water Bowls


I never have, but apparently it isn't uncommon. Tink just posted a pic of Solomon sleeping with one paw in the water dish! Sure others will follow with stories......

Re: Water Bowls


My Pip loves water - he likes to drink from the tap, sit in the sink and go out in the rain. He comes in soaking wet and doesn't seem to mind. He's never tried manslaughter with a water bowl though! I would recommend a stainless steel one with a rubber base so that it can't be moved about quite so easily!
