Many fridges have a child lock on it.
Works on cats too, I imagine.
That’s a violation of the cat’s human rights
Just tell them it’s temporarily broken. Edit- that also works on kids.
You can’t lie to a cat, this shit is serious.
Good attitude. Many cats don’t drink enough water, so anything that helps is good for their kidney health.
Cats want fresh, running water, which is why those fountain things are so effective for cats.
That still doesn’t explain why my cat will drink some cloudy fucking street puddle water though.
The puddle has an interesting flavor.
The biggest joke I’ve heard from r/cats: “we got 3 fountains and my cat keeps drinking puddle water outside like it’s the tastiest thing in the world”
Yes, my cats have loved fountains. You can make one for cheap. Large glass jar, aquarium filter pump, rubber band or something to hold the pump against the jar, and some decorative glass rocks in the bottom to keep it in place
Our cats wouldn’t touch them. At all. 😟
I’ve never been able to get my cats to pay any attention to those things. Have tried a few.
PSA: Apparently cats don’t like water next to their food because evolution. So put the water bowl away from the food.
While this is true for most cats, my sweet weirdos like it right by their food so they can get some between bites. Test it out and see where they drink the most water
I keep one by the food and a separate water dish in another room not far from their cat tree. When it’s hot out, typically a third one finds its way near their favorite patio door they like to look out and sun by.
That’s a great idea. You are treating those cats right
Hey at least he’s drinking water. It’s a pain in the ass to get cats to do that sometimes.
We almost didn’t get our youngest off of formula. She was dumped in the highway at a very young age so we were having to feed her. She started eating whole solid food with out us softening it, but still wanted her formula. We had to dilute it over time until she was drinking just water
Cats hate self care almost as much as people do
I hate that fridge
And you are suddenly turned on to bottled water?
