Drinking using their paw
February 19, 2016

Does your little cat like to dip their paw in the water and lick it off? It might seem to be a laborious way of drinking, but there are a couple of simple reasons why they might prefer it.
Sometimes their whiskers can brush against the side of the bowl which can be uncomfortable for them. So try a wider bowl and make sure it’s as full with water as it can be.
Or, if you live in a multi-cat house, they might just prefer to keep their head up to make sure another cat doesn’t sneak up on them!
