Drink The Water - Movie Monday

This movie is all about water!


Our new water fountain arrived on Friday. This is the second one we've had, the first one was about 6 years ago, so most of us never used one before. Maya has spent many a hour behind the fountain trying to find out the inner workings. He spilled so much water on the floor, by the end of the night the lady had to put a towel down. Maggie May is one of the few who actually drank from the fountain, but then she tried to cover it with the towel. Maizy Grace stuck her paws in and that's about it. Then there's Cal.........Cal is old school, he still insists on drinking from the kitchen sink. Go figure!
We hope you enjoy our feature presentation!

That was fun to watch! Mom won't get us a fountain cuz she thinks we would just play in the water and make a big mess...she's probably right!

(thanks for the Who today!)

Cal-thanks for the vote!-Orion

Cat Street Boyz said...

We have a drinkwell platinum and LOVE it! It's like a little waterfall. They just came out with a new fountain where the water comes out all around so more kitties can drink at one time! All you videos are cool...thanks for the entertainment.....our Mommy has to learn that stuff now=^Y^=the Cat Street Boyz

That was a great video. Mom and Dad want to get us one of those fountains. I think you are missing a great opportunity to chew on the power cord, though. It's just hanging there asking for it. Go for the bundle. That part tastes the best.

Cool video. Our fountain is black but otherwise identical. Cliff still prefers the sink too.

Sunny's Mommy said...

Hahaha! That's a great video :-D

Daisy said...

Harley was thrilled watching other cats go wild with water, too!

Tuck said...

I'm not sure I would trust that fountain either! Hey, I wonder if water tastes better in a stream like that one in the sink? Maybe my mom will leave it on for me so I can try it...

Hi gang! Our friend Jasper told us you have a fountain video so we came to see it! We have a post up about our water fountain too. Scout was too young last year and just wanted to play waterpark with it, but now that he's older (age 3) he's doing ok with it. We love our fountain! Come visit if you can sometime! We are 3 cats in Minnesota.

That was fun watching all of you with the water. We would have liked to join in.

Noir the Texas Tabby said...

WOW! I wonder if we should bug Tommy to get one! I like you're movie! I want us to move to the creek!

The Monkeys said...

That looks like a lot of fun!

Quill and Greyson said...

I like the faucet best!

Sweet Purrfections said...

I want one of those but mom says she is afraid I won't use it.

Cory said...

That's awesome. My mom had one of those fountains before I was born, but there were so many kitties and so much floof that it kept getting clogged up! Now we just have to use the drippy faucets.

that's very fun to watch, and reminded me when we had the fountain!

We want one, but Carbon would go fishy fishy in it and splash all over. He does anyway in our water bowl. Try getting one of the litter mats with the fabric on one side (it's got pawprints on it, and either grey or brown fabric). They're great for sopping up splashes and they don't flop into the bowl when someone puts them over the top. They're machine washable, too.

Piggy and Grover said...

That looks like a lot of fun for you! Our mom had one of these but she was afraid we'd electrocute ourselves or something. Silly mom.

Laila and Angel Minchie said...

Great movie! Mom refuses to get us one because it would cause a big flood in our house she claims.

Thoughts said...

Nomi said...

My miewmie bought me one once but I ignored it. Perhaps I should have tinkered around at the back of it. Maybe thats the secret.

Wow, we just have bowls to drink from -- you guys have something to play in too!

JB's Big and Small Worlds said...

That's a great video, sort of a how to video...hee hee. I don't have one of those fountains yet.

Lux said...

That was a cool movie - wow! Mom wants to get us one of those, but she's not sure we'd drink from it.

We keep asking Santa Paws for a Drinkwell, but we still have a bowl of plain old water.

Whimpurr said...

LOL! Loved it!!! They'll get used to it! *purrs*

Cory said...

Hi, we're purring that Cal is ok and hope he likes the Natural Balance. Jonesie still has trouble and we're having trouble tapering her off her prednisone. Such a sensitive girl.

Kaltsas Kats said...

I thought it was so funny Maya wanted to know how the fountain worked. We have one and Nemo would drink the water right as it comes out. We love the way Maggie May tried to bury it. Patches buries everything she can.

The water fountain looks a bit like a bidet ot bedpan! No wonder you prefer the tap. But once you get used to it - it should be fun!

I wanna come play, too. Mostly I get water in my old bowl but sometimes I can play in MMs bathroom sink. A couple of times they caught me playing in their potty, but now they keep it closed. No fair!
