    Give your cats some water! Geeze. Cats will go into kidney failure from a lack of water in like a single day. They wouldn’t be doing this if they had access to fresh water.

      It may also be they aren’t trying to get water and they are trying to get at the mineral deposits left behind from the water that covers the inside of pipes and faucets, just like sometimes you may get a craving for something salty.

    If I had a cat and caught it doing that, I’d absolutely turn the faucet on.

    Stop trying to deepthroat the water delivery system, dumbass.

      Why?
      Is it unhealthy or in what way do they hurt themselves trying to gather fresh water?

      Maybe just put an attractive alternative somewhere, like a cat water fountain?

        I’d be worried about my cat chipping a tooth again, but she’s also a bit of a dumbass.

          Ah yeah, guess that could be a problem

          Strangely mine was obsessed with buckets of water. Now he got his own tiny bucket and he is happy with that ;⁠-⁠)

        They’ll turn into water balloons and then I can have a water balloon fight.

        Edit: I also kinda prefer my water without toxoplasmosis gondii.

          Well, I guess, then don’t have cats at home
          I’m pretty sure, that this single thing won’t save you

          And I’m not sure how often you drink it off the bathtub, but you do you…

          Edit: because I’m a bit slow today:
          How do you think cats clean themselves? Do you think they take a shower?
          As they’re licking themselves clean, you have absolutely no chance to not get contracted, because as soon as you pet them, you have it on your hands - disregard all the furniture they’re lying on

                Bruh, I literally said I’d have a water balloon fight using waterlogged cats, and you took that seriously? I wouldn’t really want toxoplasmosis inside of me, but I wouldn’t actually turn a cat into a water balloon.

      If you want them to stop, don’t encourage them! Only turn it on when the tip is in.
