Cats are like little children—lively and active, and they can do things that annoy us. For example, they might be constantly jumping around the house, breaking things, or secretly eating their owner's food or drinking their water—they can be incredibly mischievous. Just like this pet owner's cat, which usually seems quite well-behaved, it would do things behind its owner's back. One night, the owner got up to get a drink of water and only then realized what its feline overlord had done.
The pet owner owns a silver shaded cat, a breed known for its gentle and mild temperament, rarely showing anger. This cat is no exception; besides its good nature, it's very affectionate, always sticking close to its owner. As soon as the owner comes home, it starts cuddling and showering them with attention. The owner initially thought their cat was a well-behaved child, but after witnessing its antics, they realized that appearances can be deceiving, and the same applies to cats.
That night, the pet owner woke up feeling very thirsty. They got up, turned on the light, and prepared to drink the water they had left on the bedside table. However, upon turning on the light, they saw their cat sitting where they had left the water glass. At first, the pet owner was puzzled, wondering what the cat was doing there. But after seeing the cat's actions, the pet owner burst out laughing instantly, completely losing their sleepiness.
The cat skillfully dipped its paw into the water glass, then licked it with its tongue, dipped it again, and repeated the action. It seemed the cat was drinking water, but not in a normal way—dipping its paw in the water to drink. What kind of habit is that?
After laughing, the owner realized the cat was drinking water from their cup and felt a little uncomfortable. Judging from the cat's behavior, this probably wasn't the first time. If it had done this before, then the owner was drinking "paw water"—water from the cat's paws! And cats' paws do everything—walking, burying their poop—they're very dirty. Remembering how the owner always felt there was hair in the water when the cat drank, and seeing the cat's actions, it all made sense.
Owner: No wonder there was hair in the water.
Has your cat ever secretly drunk your water?
