Cats And Their Weird Love For Sinks

Can anyone explain exactly why cats love sinks so much? Is it the coolness? Is it the "if it fits, I sits" instinct? All we know for certain is that no matter what time of year, no matter what we're doing in the bathroom, for some strange reason, our cats are always following us there.

They're probably watching us in there to make sure we don't drown in this weird watery room. That has to be the reason, right? A cat's consideration knows no bounds. At least that's what we tell ourselves when they reach over and try to munch on our favorite toothbrush. Eh, whatever, so long as they look cute in that sink, they know they can get away with pretty much anything.
