Thirsty Thursday

Our very favourite place to drink is from this big dish. It is really a spare litterbox that doesn't get used. It stays outdoors and catches all the rainwater, and since this photo was taken, the water is now only an inch from the top.

I like to stand with my front feet in the water when I drink and sometimes have all four feet in the water. It is something I have done ever since I was a little kitten.

    We would like a watering place like that since two or three of us really like to get our feet in the water. We love it when there are puddles around. Hope you have a super day.

    Rainwater tastes good, doesn't it? I don't think I'd want my feet in it, though.

    That is a lot of rain you have been getting. Would you still stand in water so deep? You are a funny guy!

    Scouty would LOVE to drink there...he's a watercat too! He scoops it up with his paw and flings it all over. You two could have water wars!

    That looks so fun! Jack says he would love such a thing. (His mom may consider it. It is a good idea.)

    Oh Eric! You are a great jungle cat at your watering hole! So handsome and strong!
    Fresh water from the sky must be delicious. We rarely see rain and on the rare occasions we do , the water is full of dirt. Love to all.

    Smokey loves to drink out of the bird bath when he is outside. He'll just drink and drink like there's no tomorrow. It must be good!

    We're also wondering if you stand in it when it's full, Eric??????? Isn't rain water delish??????

    Our Mama has a little one gallon bucket on our balcony that she catches rainwater in, and Sammy loves to drink out of it.

    Love to y'all.

    Why do you like to get your feet wet Eric? Some of us scoop at water, but we don't stand in it. Because it is wet.

    I'll bet that water tastes extra good! Do you stand in the water even when it is filled to the top?

    Eric, you are crazy! We never stand in our water when we drink it! We may dip our paws in the water and lick it off, or we may dip our paws in the water and tip over the glass, but we don't stand in our drinking water!
