Now, I had fish in a bowl that I was thawing for dinner. Huey came up and wanted water. Did he drink from his cup? No. I dumped it out and refilled...I guess it was just to stale for him to drink. I filled it that morning. Did he drink out of the cup? No. I stepped away from the sink for a dish and there he was, drinking the fish water!
When watching tv, I usually have a big Mardi Gras cup with ice water near me. This cat goes out of his way to try to drink from MY cup! He comes up and I move it, but he just follows. I'll even give him his OWN ice water. Does he drink that? NO! What is up with that?!! Maybe it's the forbidden fruit thing...or the grass is greener thing.
