Thread: Double Dipping

    Double Dipping

    aka...monkey see, monkey do

    Edwina has always liked to drink the water in the reservoir of the humidifier we use in the winter. At first she would wait for one of us to take off the tank to refill it. Then, she began sitting next to it with an urgent and insistent look on her face.

    Eddie, seeing Edwina enjoying the water decided he wanted some too. (Never mind that they have a perfectly fine and expensive drinking fountain!)

    Fortunately, the humidifier has two tanks....

    That has got to be one of the biggest kitty drinking fountains that I have ever seen. I thought it was bad when Tigger would jump into the bath tub and wait for the water to be turned on....or if she was really desperate, she would lick the water off the walls of the shower

    If one REALLY thought about it...just who is the Monkey here, Sara? The two EEs that drink from the double fountain, or the silly hooman that removes the reserviours for them?

    Miss Edwina must have been a teacher in her former life. She really brings Eddie up to speed.

    LOL!!!! I think the two E's are just too smart!!!!! Don't they always want to drink from some unconventional water supply? Mimi will actually sit in our bathroom, waiting for me to fill up a cup of water for her!!! LOL!!!

    Eddie says "Hmmm....this is obviously water fit for a queen. Must be pretty good. I'll have to give it a try."

    Edwina says "Good, he's drinking the water fit for a queen. Maybe now he'll get a little more refined and lose some of that street cat attitude."

    So that is what your humidifier looks like! Very efficient indeed - for several purposes. Aren't the E's lucky - they can choose whatever they want to drink from. And even together! That's the best part!

    Fister often calls me to come out in the bathroom and turn the tap on, so the water runs across the floor - and recently he has taught me to give it full blast (VERY exiting!) and then when I turn it off, he starts drinking.

    That is so funny!
    It reminds me of my rb cat, Lucy. She always pawed the floor beside her water dish before she would drink. Luke, saw her do that when I adopted him, so he started it. Now, Chester, after seeing Luke do it, does it too. Lucy had been at the rb since 1999 and never met Chester, but I smile every time I see Luke or Chester drink. Her legacy lives on!

    At first I thought, gee I need a pet fountian like that. Then I got to the part about it beign a humidifier.

    How often do they demand that you let them drink from it.

    I thought the same thing Bryan did! Must be nice. Grover makes me keep the water running in the tub, just slightly though.

    That's funny. I imagine that humidifier would be extremely popular around here too.
