Cats don't like still water
Cats know instinctively like og the caveman that still water is dangerous.
Yellow fin knows this and to protect himself he will:
Drink from toilets - clearly a safer and more convenient source of running water
Use his paw to move the water in a drinking bowl
He doesn’t seem to be worried that it’s the same paw he uses in his litter box
Anyways I got the cats two of these - they love them! I have one upstairs in my office and another one on the ground floor. They need to be refilled about once every 3-4 days. It’s got running water and it looks exactly like a toilet bowl - what more could you ask for! Well actually see: This is better than a water fountain which looks like a toilet bowl
Puff has lost weight and I the cats aren’t drinking from the toilets lately and I appreciate that it’s easier for me since I don’t have to fill their water bowl every time I feed them.
