Enjoy.


I love this. I think he just likes the water.


Hah! Certainly not dumb (what a ridiculous notion). But peculiar -
yes.

The water was on much too hard for a cat to try lapping it directly
with a tongue - that technique works for gently flowing water. This
cat found one way to slow the water down, and clearly didn't seem to
mind the stream hitting his head.

He seemed to like the way it felt on his ears.

Seems more like he was trying to cool
off on a hot day and the drinking was a
side benefit
