The shelter's 24lb cat was adopted! It was a family with the man in a wheelchair. He wanted a cat that would lie down a lot. I hope he keeps her on her diet.

WHat a lovely piece of news Wren. Years ago I used to do holiday cover in a Vets and Cattery. There was one very fat cat came in, fed on a really rich meat diet (not cat food, but butcher-bought meat) and although I knew it was not healthy for her to be so big I must admit I found her extra cuddliness very attractive!

TomBoy! I saw your lovely Autumn photo of a little gazebo shelter in Central Park over on the artists thread!!
Did the black cat stick around?

(waves hello from a noob to this list) I'm not quite sure where else to ask this: New Boy Cat (recently acquired sibling of Established Girl Cat) has discovered the joys of playing with and drinking from a dripping faucet. Any suggestions for an equivalent that doesn't require leaving a faucet dripping?

Hi Queenmomcat,
The Brown Cat has also recently discovered this joy. He always used to follow me into the bathroom, but now he does so with a purpose. I turn it on for him while I am in there and turn it off when I leave. So I limit his access. If this bothers you, you could try getting your kitty a Drinkwell fountain. I got one for the other two cats before the Brown Cat, but they did not like it.

Hi Queenmomcat someone posted earlier on this thread that the automatic step-on drinking bowl was a big success with her cat. You should find it if you go backwards on the thread, there was a picture.
Our cat was a stray before he came to us and he occasionally shows his "street cat" side by drinking from somewhere WORSE (toilet bowl) we have had to become vigilant about putting the lid down.

FF, I have a photo of Squeakers drinking out of the toilet when he was a foster cat. He loved to drink from a dripping faucet. When he was returned and we adopted him, we pretended we've never heard of a cat drinking from a faucet and didn't start again.
Our foster cat went to the vet today to be sedated for x-rays so he couldn't have food. You could tell from the look on his face when we took the food dishes out of his crate that it was the worst thing he could even imagine.

Wren - laughed out loud visualising the betrayed look on the face of the poor hungry cat. I know that look well.

For the time being, I may just let Pete the Paw think that the faucet drips only at mama's behest. But I'll look into the foofty water supplies.

Stuttering
; A teacher's story about stuttering.
A teacher is explaining biology to her 4th grade students.
"Human beings are the only animals that stutter,' she says.
A little girl raises her hand. 'I had a kitty-cat who stuttered.'
The teacher, knowing how precious some of these stories could become, asked the girl to describe the incident.
"Well," she began, 'I was in our back yard with my Kitty and the Rottweiler that lives next door got a run up and he jumped right over the fence into our yard!'
'That must've been scary,' said the teacher.
'It sure was,' said the little girl.
'My Kitty raised her back, went "Ffffff!, Ffffff!, FfffffF," but before she could say 'Fuck-off ', the Rottweiler ate her!
The teacher had to leave the room.0 -
Pete the Paw. Love it.

Teka love the picture of your drawer kitty. My cats won't have anything to do with dripping faucets but our BCE (Best Cat Ever- so named by our vet) Percy drinks water off his paw. He won't just drink from the bowl. He dips his paw in and licks the water off his dripping wet paw. He's done this since he was a kitten. Never have seen a cat drink like that.

rose, I have one cat that only eats and drinks from her paw. She's very messy! And right handed

She's beautiful Blondie! And so are you! Dunesleeper asked about you on another thread and I told her you were posting here and on another thread. She sends her best!

Blondie Congratulations on Great Granddaughter.
RoseValley I had a paw drinking cat - only one I ever had in all my cat years. I had never encountered another so VERY interested to hear of your BCE Percy and Smaartys paw eater and drinker.
Beastie drank with the paw, but ate face in the bowl like the others.
Her paw drinking reminded me so much of David Attenborough in Tanzania narrating Lions in the Serengeti or some such - you could really see the ancestors in her.
Beastie. RIP sweet girl. She died at 18 in Dec 2011. She was purring as she passed away.

Beautiful Beastie.

We had a cat who drank normally, but would pick out 1 kibble at a time and put it in her mouth. She could also do that from the open bag (after opening it).
