He used to drink from the tap in the tub and from a fountain, but has decided he prefers the personalized service, but every once in awhile I catch him drinking from his bowl when he thinks no one is looking.

Makes boarding him expensive, as they charge extra for the special watering routine!

You could get one of those really tall ones for big dogs, and maybe that would be more like the water coming out of the sink than one of the lower ones because the water would drip out higher.

I notice that you have a sprayer on your kitchen sink. You could point it to where Shadow usually sites and use a rubber band to hold the trigger down. Now when you turn the water on, she will get sprayed.

It would be better hygiene for you if she drank out of the bathtub or really anywhere besides the kitchen sink. Cute cat, though. Good thing you know who is boss!

I have a 30lb dog and a 20lb cat and I’m sure you can guess who rules the show, right? right. Oreo the kitty.

He MUST have at least half a bowl of food. If the crunchies get below half a bowl, he’s on my case until I fill it.

I MUST get in the bath with me, or if I have a shower, he must get in the shower after I’m done and lick the tub (EW!) and the faucet. Gives whole new meaning to “I’d drink her bathwater!”

After the dog has gone out for the second time in the morning, it is treat time. I don’t get any peace to do anything until the treats have been doled.

I love the ways that they rule my life. They are the best friends ever and I’d do anything for them.

My girl-cat has taken to demanding wet-food constantly. Every time I go into the kitchen she’s there, demanding food, even if there’s stuff in there!

Sherri — What is it with cats and toilets? I thought they were supposed to want to be clean!

Marg Elmendorf — With 20 cats, I really can’t imagine you doing much else than serving their needs. You must have been a cat in a previous life and been treated really well!

Pricilla — You’d better be kidding about the mountain lion thing! Poor Sherpa. I bet it taught him a good lesson.

JD at I Do Things — I don’t know what I’d do with all that time. I’m serious. At least ten times a day, and that’s just me. Dave does it just as much. She needs an intervention.

Andrea — I’m checking out this Drinkwell thing. If you can win, I can win too.

Sherry — What? What?

jackie d — Toby is a human and Toby rules. Toby is also a very smart kitteh.

Lisa — I’m glad you understand why you go to work every day. It’s to pay for a very large home for your cat.

Kim — Damn. Angel Kitty has you wrapped around her little paw. Our Lucky has water dish issues like your cat. Annoying as hell, but it makes us laugh.

sheila sultani — We haven’t hung a roll of TP on the holder for at least ten years. We should just have them removed.

Jay — At least our cats are small(ish). I don’t know how long I’d last with a dog in the house that is as big as a person. You go girl!

Jenny Paust — What an interesting tic your cat has. Of course, they know what works and it gets you up, right? My Lucky thoroughly enjoys digging a hole to China in his litter box. Serves two purposes: It makes a huge mess I have to clean up, and it gets my butt out of bed.

April — Sounds like it! Um, and does your cat also think it’s a dog, because that’s very doggy behavior. We had a cat once (Calvin, RIP) who was sure he was a dog in a cat’s body. We indulged him just the same.

AuntieE — Yes, when we brought her home for the first time, she allowed herself a day to be confused and then quickly figured out the water dish was no suitable to her tastes. Up on the counter she went and has been there ever since.

Jenn Thorson — I was thinking of that! Yes, I have a dozen pictures of her in the sink. I’m doing it!

Jill at modernmommyblog — Oooo, never heard of that! WE thought of putting pots and pans up there so scare her when she jumped up, but then my kitchen would be more cluttered than it already is. Sorry about your curtains.

Chris Casey — She sounds loud and heavy. But you love her more than anything I bet. Welcome to the club.

Swubird — I love how anti-social Trixie is. We have an elder cat, too. We have to make appointments to see her. She pretty much decides when and if we are worthy enough.

Susan Montgomery — Isn’t it amazing what we’ll put up with for the love of our pets? I’ve so enjoyed reading all these comments. We are all loving pet parents. Crazy, but loving!

Deb — And if you bought May a bed of her own, how much you wanna bet she’d still chase you out of yours?

Brandy — The shower thing perplexes me. Shadow will sometimes go into my husband’s shower after he’s done, but not my shower. Is she trying to tell me something? Am I not clean enough. Geesh!
