My cat hates water except to drink and that is a delicate operation for him, he sneakes up on the water very carefully. Maybe your car is part raccoon.

Is he washing his feet or is that how he is getting his water? One of my cats used to drink from glasses, no matter how full, by sticking his paw in them and then licking his paw.

Hi Mah. Yes, the cat that I have now does many strange things. I'll probably get reamed to death for this, but when I take a bubble bath, this guy comes right up to the tub and dips his paws to pop the bubbles. lol. I said to my hubby, I aint never seen anything like this one in my life! He also likes ritz crackers and hot chocolate. Guess they all have their own personalities.

kraft are you a veterinarian?
Its certainly not the norm for kittens to use their paws to drink.

When my cat was a kitten she loved water and she always had her little paws in it and she would drop all her toys in her water dish and swirl them around. My friends leave the faucet dripping in one of the bathrooms and their cat always drinks from it and plays in the sink and licks her paws and she's about 3 years old now. Bengal kitties also really love water and use their paws to drink.

This cat is a Minx but looks a lot like a bobcat. I would put him up against any horse in Kentucky for a race. I have a fit trying to catch him. Now he tries to get in the commode if we don't close the bathroom door. He also like hot Burritos, he doesn't meow in spanish though.

My cat drags its ass around on the carpet, and pulls itself forward with its front two paws. It also lands on its feet, no matter how far I throw it. Is this normal?

Leave the cat alone and find someone your own size.
I knew this would be the next Issue after the same sex marriage thing.
or:
Feed it hairball gel weekly and make sure it doesn't have worms.
Quit throwing the cat. Perv.

I used to have a pair of Manx cats.They were brothers and loved the water. No glass was safe when left unattended.
They also learned that could "find" a human when I was out of the house. They found the 911 button on the desk phone and liked to listen to the nicevoice that spoke to them when they pushed it. Needless to say, I had to hide that phone.
I usually found found Linc and Jinx playing the bathroom. One would be in the sink trying to get his nose in the faucet and the other would be in the tub with his paws up the spout.
Since they loved the water so much, I tried to toilet train them. I used that special seat you can buy where you slowly cut out the center.
Eveything was going well until the last week of training. Most of the seat had been cut out. Linc was chasing Jinx and Jinx decided he needed a bathroom break. He ran into the bathroom a little too fast, jumped on to the seat and slid into the toilet.
Neither of them would go near the toilet after that.
