This morning I was taking a bath as usual before work when Anya decided that she wanted to be on the edge of the tub. She's still in her clumsy kitten stage so I was worried about her falling in and freaking out, but every time I put her back on the floor she jumped right back up on the side again.
Then she decided that she wanted in. She kept trying to carefully jump in but I would push her back and splash a little so that she would see that there's WATER in there and she wouldn't like it.
Eventually....she did topple in. I scooped her out quickly before she got too wet and thought, "Well, at least she'll stop trying to get in now."
WRONG. She hopped right back up on the side again. Shouldn't this have freaked her out? Do some cats not mind water? I haven't tried bathing her yet, but maybe this will be the first kitty that won't try to mutilate me while doing so.
Anyone else have a cat that is or seems attracted to water?
