Animals are funny people
Riley and I have a new bedtime ritual. I take my allergy pills, then he hops up on the vanity and I pour him a glass of water, which he drinks while I'm brushing my teeth. He hops down when he's done, I empty out the glass, and we all go to bed.
I know a lot of cats like fresh water, but he has no interest--whatsoever--in the running faucet. He wants a glass of fresh water. It's pretty amusing, although I think Jen finds it funnier that I will actually indulge him. ;)
Gremlin will only drink tap water out of a bowl in the sink or by batting the running water coming from the tap. No problem with puddles though, just water from the cat bowl isn't good enough I guess. :)
