    If you have to leave the water running a little, could you try to catch some of it in a pan or something and then use that water for something else later on? I sure hope MsPuddy will cooperate with the efforts you are going through to help her.

    I leave it running at such a tiny trickle and if I try to catch it in something, I'm not sure how there will be room for Pud.

    here's a thought. maybe she likes her water cold, not room temperature? when it's really hot, i put a couple ice cubes in sig's water because i feel so bad knowing his water is all warm. he likes to lick the condensation off my water bottle too.

    Tried that already. She looked up at me as if to say "Silly human".

    Mary,
    I think she's messing with your head 'cause she can!
    I'm afraid I don't have any advice to give but the mental picture of you on all fours "teaching" Puddy how to drink from a gerbil bottle made me ROFL! The things we do for our furkids!

    I think you're right. She has such expressive eyes and she looks at me sometimes as if to say "Stick a needle in me every day, will ya?" I'm glad no one was around w/a camera when I was teaching her how to drink from the gerbil bottle. Talk about blackmail!
    Blessings,
    Mary
