Social Drinker

Meg, cat-in-residence at casa de Borg, has a water bowl of her very own. She ignores it completely and prefers to drink from unwashed dishes, the bathroom basin and sometimes she even licks the collected droplets from the floor of the shower. Her motivation is unclear, but it does seem that her preference for company outweighs her preference for water. Or maybe water is tastier with a hint of soap. I guess we'll be in the dark until she learns to speak and decides to explain to us.

PS - In the meantime, I'm just letting her be.
PPS - It usually seems like the best policy.

I can completely understand confusion at Meg's preference of water source.

Our resident vegetable (spud the fat recalcitrant feline) also has a penchant for bizarre water sources. His most popular is the excess water at the bottom of our pot plants out front of our house.

We have provided an inside and outside source of water for him, and have experimented using plastic and ceramic dishes but to no avail, instead continuing to consume this 'dirty water' with great vigour!
