Why water

by William Comfort
(St.Catharines,Ontario Canada)

I have a male white cat that insists that he has to play in the water first.He'll splash it all over the place then put both front paws in the water then take a drink.To me it's almost like he can't see the water in the bowl.WHY does he do this.

Well I think this is impossible to answer really. Either like you say your cat has eyesight problems or he may just like playing with water. Over the years I have seen some very strange habits coming from cats and perhaps this is one of them.

I fhowever you are concerned about your cats eyesight then it may be worth having him checked out by a vet. At least that way you may be able to understand some of his behaviors.

Best wishes Kate
