How spoiled is your cat?

[Sufferin' Prius Envy]

Our cat, Gizmo, is so spoiled he refuses to drink out of his water bowl unless he sees you fill it with fresh water first. He would much rather drink directly from the faucet or go outside and drink gutter water.

His favorite treat? TUNA WATER!!!
If you are making a tuna sandwich, drain the water from the can into a bowl and add half as much more water.
Fastest tongue in the West!!!! :tongue:

All of our cats are spoiled to.We have 7! Should say they are my wifes.1 likes ice cream and another likes bread. She spoils all of them,they are like more kids

Sushi(or Fatty as we like to call her) will eat anything. Her favorites include tuna(in water), ice cream & catnip. I always thought cats just rolled around in catnip, but no... Sushi eats it right up and then spends the following few hours scratching her face on the furniture. Spock, my perfect Siamese, is a finicky eater. Because of his delicate stomach, he can only eat Science Diet Sensitive Stomach formula. We change their water bowl daily and fill it with cold Brita water, which they sometimes fight over. Apparently that first sip is the best.

I highly suggest getting a fountain for your cat to drink out of. See, before cats evolved to be our masters, they lived out in the wild. And they learned that stagnant water is bad water (bacteria, etc.), where as running water is good water.

A little tip, too - if you don't want to spend the $50 at Petsmart for their pet fountain - go to any home deco store and pick up those cheap $10-20 fountains with the stones and such - just don't put in the stones (cats tend to play with those and make a mess) and you're cat will love it.

Is it considered spoiling that I carry my baby Hank (see userpic) up to bed everynight and he usually sleeps between my legs?

We recently added a third cat to our family. Leo won't drink out of his bowl. He wants to drink out water out of the sink. Great idea on the fountain. I bet all three would like that.

"Her Royal Catness Princess RUFFruff" is not exactly "spoiled" - we are simply "her staff !" She adopted us from a "no-kill" shelter (Operation Kindness) in Dallas over 10 years ago and has presided over our shared home since. She, of course, has preferences and makes them very clear. Her drinking water can be found in a custard cup on my desk and a glass on the coffee table as well as beside her dining station. The hi-intensity reading light on my desk is her "heat lamp." Her preferred food is "Fancy Feast" - perhaps because she looks like the picture on the label and it, of course, is the most expensive.

Spoiled? Not really, she just knows she is in charge.

She's pretty hot. Does she like redheads? I'd like to take her out for some fresh chipmunk sometime.

Hmm? Running water? Maybe thats why our cats like to drink out of the sink/tub when the water is left to trickle out of the faucet. Never knew that.

Yeah, my mutts are spoiled. :mrgreen:

What is a Cat?





Cats do what they want.

They rarely listen to you.

They're totally unpredictable.

They whine when they are not happy.

When you want to play, they want to be alone.

When you want to be alone, they want to play.

They expect you to cater to their every whim.

They're moody.

They leave hair everywhere.

They drive you nuts and cost an arm and a leg.



Conclusion: They're tiny women in little fur coats.
