Outsmarting a cat is an achievement like no other. They are little hooligans, and they think that they are so dang smart. Even when they get ridiculously stuck in our curtain and scream until we get them out, they are still doing it on purpose obviously, they are still the smartest creature in the room. But sometimes, just sometimes, we can properly outsmart them.
These weirdly informative yet hilarious tumblr posts tell the story of such cases. I mean, you have to get your silly cat to drink sOmeHOw, and if it means having to convince your cat that it's really just being sneaky and clever and drinking from your cup, well, that's just par for the course.
It's actually genius, and you've given us many amazing ideas for the future for getting our cats to do things. Honestly, we wish we would have thought of this earlier. It's like hiding a pill inside of your cat food when they're sick. ...except that my cat ate around the wet food and left the pill right there so... maybe she outsmarted me.
We've heard quite a few explanations about why cats sometimes don't drink water a lot - from them being desert animals to them not liking still water to them not liking when their water bowl is near their food bowl. I think my cat's just a jerk though- she'll yell at me near her water bowl even if it's full, waiting for me to get her f r e s h water.
