the kitten chronicles - part 60

I thought cats didn't like water. Not the boys. Their favourite spot is the sink. Any sink. The bathroom. The kitchen sink. The big sinks in the laundry room (boy, will they get a surprise if they leap in there when the the machine is on rinse!) Why they like water so much is beyond the Big Cat's understanding. They like to bat at the tap and catch the drops in their mouth. Come to think of it I like to do that myself. Maybe they learned it from me. They seem to like having wet paws, too. Does it cool them down in this blistering heat? Wait, the air conditioning is set at 16 degrees - so that can't be it. They like the tub, too. But I think that's just because they like to play mini-soccer with the bath beads. Oops, squished one, what's this sticky stuff on my paws? Think I'll lick it and find out. Uggh! Then they go around blowing little soap bubbles for the rest of the day. Eek! xxx dad
