How cute!

Your meowmie called you a DORK!!!

Shame on her!
Some of mine do that too. I kind of came to the conclusion that they do it so the water ripples and they can tell where the water level is. Although Ms. Peanut I don't think it is necessary to go completely to the bottom of the bowl!!!

Mine usually paw the bowl or tap the top of the water. Since I got the freshflow fountain they don't do it anymore. Except for Pepper Jack who like to stand on the fountain and attack it!!

For whatever reason Peanut you have got to be the most beautiful dork I have ever seen!!

You just can't be too careful, Miss Peanut! You had probably read about those icebergs that AmberLee put in her cats' water and were just checking that nothing could bump your precious nosie!

That is sooo cute.

Tell your mom that you are not a dork, you just need to make sure that it is water.

I have seen Bob eat dry food with his paw, but never water. Loved the video, thanks!

That is Funny,and The Library Cat Club loved it as well! The Found Cats do that too,and I am suprised that after all this time,that they dont know that it is water!

Everyone knows that quality control is very important.

Aww Princess Peanut! You are definitely too pretty to be a dork! You're just testing the waters .... SO CUTE!

Debbie, she paws at the floor like she's a bull with a red flag in front of her. She does this every time she takes a drink. Usually she will stick her paw in next, but I have seen, on the rare occassion, where she does her bull imitation and then just drinks....if you can believe it.

Although Ms. Peanut I don't think it is necessary to go completely to the bottom of the bowl!!!

I saw her heading for the bowl and I just happened to have camera in hand from taking Tubby pics so I followed her. Never did I guess she would "perform" so well. I had to control my giggling so I could continue to film.

Hmmm...I wonder if there is something to this long haired theory? Does anybody have a short haired cat that does this?

Thanks everybody. She's my adorable, sweet little dorky princess.

Oh, and one last thing. Here's another video I posted awhile back that Debbie may not have seen. This shows Peanut pretending to be a little bull.

Peanut is so cute with her little water ritual!

I loved the videos!

**csanchezveloso** · 07-29-2004, 12:06 PM

**jazzcat** · 07-29-2004, 02:47 PM

Aww, love the bull video too!!!

WAYYYY too many of the resident & fosters have drinking problems here! Sashay (who needs a home) is the worst! She'll unload an entire bowl of water across the basement floor. I got smart in the kitchen and put the water bowls into a large plastic storage bin...and then the puppy chewed it up. But it still contains the floodwaters here!

Peanut is NOT A DORK!
