    As far as I know, cats and dogs can see heat to a certain extent, so this could look really interesting to a cat.

    I had a cat that loved this too. I’m pretty sure he could hear the tiny little trapped bubbles “sizzle” as the cube melted.

    My cats also loves ice cubes. It’s a bit of a tradition at this point, any time I get a beverage I have to give one in their bowl.

    They don’t do much with it but an occasional lick and watch it melt but they’ll purr and stay put until it’s gone. I like it, I think it lets them feel included.

      My cat too! Ever since he was a kitten. We call it the “ice tax”. Whenever anyone in my house uses ice for any reason my cat will run up and meow at the person and basically demand a cube. They then have to take an ice cube and throw it into the bath tub while the cat gleefully chases after it and bats it around in the bath tub.

    Everytime I have an iced drink, my cat Stuart wants to put his paw in it. It is a deep, burning desire that does not abate until the glass is empty. I have to cover my drink with my hand and keep moving it around to keep it away from him.
