Binx is driving me up the walls and I need your help!
Ok, he has this really bad habit of taking whatever he considers a "toy" and putting it in the waterbowl. Sometimes it's a ball, but it's usually a large scrap of fleece(which, unfortunately, tends to suck up a lot of water really fast) that he steals from me while I'm sewing. He also sticks my chain "dogtag" necklace in the waterdish too(it's a cheap, free nechlace that I got, but I like it).
Now it's doesn't seem too bad, right. I mean, big whoop, I can just take the stuff out...WRONG!
He not only puts the stuff in, but he puts it in, lets it sit for a couple minutes, then comes and takes it back out and drags it around the apartment! GRRR!!!!! Do you have any idea how much of a mess a soaking wet piece of fleece can make?
So, summed up, he puts his toys, my jewelry, and any fabric he can get his paws on, into the water bowl. He then returns a couple minutes later and drags the item around the apartment. Once the item is somewhat dry, he puts it BACK in the water dish to "refresh" it.
Can someone please help me?!?!?!
Oh yeah, I tried taking away all his toys and he proceeded to dig through his water dish "looking" for them, so that's not going to work.
