My kitties' tea remains unsteeped
So I had three cats, and two of the PetSafe Drinkwell fountains for them, and thought everything was fine and dandy. Yeah they were a pain to clean, yeah we had to check the level daily, yeah they were loud af if the water got too low, but what is a loving fuzz parent to do, right? They were fine, we coped. Enter my fourth cat- my rotten little mischievous bellend ginger mad lad Tom kitten. Rescued him from my apartment's dumpster, hanging around a lot of cruddy old furniture. Apparently, his last family moved and put him in the 'not keeping' pile. Brought him in, and he tried like crazy to ingratiate himself to his newfound older siblings. But alas, they were having none of it. I felt bad for the poor little chancer... until. I noticed one evening, relaxing in the bath with my book and vino, that every one of my cats were coming in to drink from my bathwater. Now, my cats love me. Flipping devoted, bless them. But drinking hot butt water? They're much too dignified for such slavishness. But the wine was good and the ego was high, so I didn't think much of it at the moment beyond "yeeeaaah. My funk is lovely." Cut to an hour later, I'm in the kitchen making the next day's lunches for my tax exemptions, and my eldest bipedal cuts off from his conversation to stare in shock into the den and exclaim, "Brooo!! Wtf are you even DOING??". Curiosity piqued, I look around the corner and there's my Sinep (new kitten) squatting above one of the fountains, twig and berries and manky little potting hole, directly in the steam of one of the fountains. Peeing. In the water fountain. And then, seriously seriously, he calmly turns around, splashes his paws in the steam, and saunters away. I'm gobsmacked. I double check the fountain - he couldn't possibly, could he? Oh yes he did. Both of them. The pure evil. I'm dismayed. Did he... did he wash his hands after, having witnessed so many of my own ablutions? I'm so proud. Anyway, long story short, jumped on Amazon and found this bad boy. Highly pleased - holds a tonne of water and the lack of nooks and crannies make it a breeze to clean (important, because biofilm is gross). It's not totally silent, but it is very quiet. And sleek like Whaaat. But most importantly, it's tall enough that a hellbent revenge-minded little tosspot can't saddle up on it. (But currently trying to teach him how to use a bidet. I'll be a TikTok millionaire.) I'd give six stars if I could, but I'll settle for ordering another one as soon as I have disposable income.
