This is a morning ritual and it cracks me up..

How Caramella drinks water.. I been trying to get this video for a week, since I first saw her doing it. This was this morning while I was trying to make my coffee!

Brushing my teeth is a lot of fun with her at the faucet trying to do this...

OMG, that is too funny! My Jax is the exact same way! We had been gone for 4 1/2 days and when we got home the first time I went into the bathroom he ran in jumped on the counter and started screaming at me to turn the water on. Then last night he was in the kitchen sink licking at that faucet. But I don't want to get him started on that so we went to the bathroom so he could play in the water.
And they say cats don't like water! Jax also lets the water go all over his head and face like that. He also bats at it with his paws.

Caramella, you are so darn cute. And it amazes me to see how bonded she is with you Laura. Not that it surprises me though, since you've been her only mommy since she was just days old. It's just so neat to see it. :)

Absolutely love it! None of my cats do this, but my brother's cat does.

I have to say that you are an awesome kitty mom for letting her do this. Just think how fresh the water must seem to her coming out of the faucet as compared to sitting in a bowl.

Miss Caramella is a beautiful girl by the way. :love:

Wow! She sure was thirsty. My Luke is too big to jump that high ... but he is very slowly losing weight but I dont think he'll ever drink water that way. Anyway your Caramella is a lovely girl and sure does like to drink running water. I enjoyed the video. Kay in NC

I love it. Our Timmy likes the Vanity in the bathroom, so we now have a small bowl in the sink. If you go in for any reason you have to run the water. At that point you will have Timmy, then Lucky. Timmy drinking the running water and and puting his head under the stream. He likes it to run down his forhead. all this time Lucky has his left paw in the bowl, drinking off his arm.

I love at about 0:40 when she sort of realizes you're there and that, if she wants to get to you, she'll have to go through the sink! And at the very end, the "Mom, I'm done" look - precious! Caramella, you are such a funny kitty girl!

Caramella is just one of those pets that, EVERYTHING she does is ADORABLE! LOL

My Crystal loves running water, we use the bathroom sink. Every time I go in there, even if I am just putting towels away, she charges in, hops on the toilet, onto the vanity and meows for the water to come on, lol. She doesn't like her head wet like Caramella, though!

I had a few chuckles watching:
Water must be filtered through cheek fur!

Just because I can do this, don't think you can give me a bath!

And Laura, we all know she imitates you SO much -- so, do YOU drink from the faucet too? :D

I lwatched this video again today and noticed at 1:06 where she pulls her head out from under the water and then looks up at the camera... as lvpets2002 said - how come I'm wet?! Caramella, you are just so adorable!

Maybe it's a Calico thing. My RB Puddy would do that, too, and she used her paw to try to pull the stream of water to her. Caramella, you're just too darned cute!

This is exactly how Filou used to drink :)

And Caramella gets a washed neck too ;)
Kisses to your sweet baby.

I watched her this morning and she was really putting that head waaay up under that faucet, over and over... reminding me of someone washing their hair! She had at least half her head wet when she was done...

Meowmie, do you and Caramella still have this morning ritual? I just watched it again via Facebook and it still makes me c huckle! Caramella, you are just so adorable! I hope you got to go outdoors in your stroller today if it was nice. (it's snowing in Chicago tonight)

Caramella, you are just too darn adorable for your own good. My Chipper & Lindy Lou drink from the faucet also, but would never let the water run down their neck like you do. I just loved the video and I'm glad this was brought back up because I missed it the first time.

Laura, does Caramella sit on the sink and scream at you to come and turn the water on like my Chipper does?

rg_girlca- Not yet so don't give her any ideas! But anytime she hears water running, she comes flying and does this. Rather it is in the bathroom sink, bathtub, or kitchen sink. Last night while I was taking my bath, she was standing on the floor with her paws on the tub, watching the water swirl all around as I bathed.. like she was frozen there.. from the minute I got in until I got out.

It's so sweet how she drinks from that faucet and it looks like she is putting her head under it on purpose. LOL!

You got a great video there!

Caramella and Eve must have a common gene:love: Eve does the same thing at the kitchen sink and my bathroom sink.

She sits on the edge of the sink and stares at you until you open the faucet ... "Mom hurry up, I'm thirsty!":)
