My question isnt baby related but I figure there has to be someone on here who knows a bit about cats... I have 3 cats and one will only drink out the tap! Their water bowl is always clean and filled with fresh water regularly. Even over night she will go thirsty until morning when she goes crazy for the tap to be put on and then drinks for about 5 minutes! Will getting a bigger water bowl help or is she just fussy? Also, the 3 of them share the one water bowl... could that be the problem?
@lou, knocking things over, tearing things apart ect. I remember once we left a bag of rice on the side and we came home and they had ripped it open and there was rice everywhere! They also chew wires xx
@firsttimemummy21, lmao do you mean clawing or knocking things over? xx
@lou, maybe you can tell me why my cats are so destructive? haha xx
@ttcaug15, haha I know a little bit. I trained my cats to wait, sit and give paw but I'm not so good at stopping them from being naughty haha. You can message me if you want to and I'll see if I can help x
@lou you don't happen to know stuff about chihuahua puppy behaviour? 😂 trying to train him before bambino comes lol
Wow, they are! Ppft to that then! Lol thought they were half that x
@nicolexvx, yeah I was thinking of getting one but they're around £20 and I just don't think its worth spending money on something she may not use haha xx
Have you seen those cat water fountains? My cat likes to drink from the bathroom tap, but he knocked the mirror in and broke the sink, so he's not allowed in there anymore (little shit) so I was thinking of getting him a cat drinking fountain ⛲ 😻 lol
I have a cat like that. even caught her drinking out the toilet... I bought her a cat water fountain... she loves it xx
my mum has 9 cats and 2 water bowls.. 1 in particular will only drink out the tap.. now and then she will drink out of plant pots etc in garden but she sits by the sink, upstairs or downstairs, until someone runs it.. never used to.. just one day wanted to be treated like lady muck lol 😂 x
@mummywarwick, bloody hell we'd need four water bowls! Surely that's a bit excessive? I've heard cats are meant to have a litter tray each and a spare but ours have always shared the one tray and never had a problem xxx
I read cats should have a bowl each a nd a spare. My younger cat will eat/drink from pretty much anything! But I don't think Marmite really drinks from her bowl. xXx
@lou, shes a bloody nightmare! she use to drink out a bowl no problem and then we lost our flat and had to move so while all that was going on they (there was only two then) went to kinda like a foster home so I wonder if its something she picked up from there xx
So buying a second bowl could work? @beccastirlingx @zaralee71
Cat's rarely drink from bowls because they can smell the chemicals in tap water (they're fussy) so would rather drink running water or rain water. Funny creatures they are. I did a foundation degree in animal behaviour and cats have the strangest behaviour patterns 😂 I adore them for it though xx
two of my cats do this😂 (I have 3) I refused to put the tap on for them and gave them extra water bowls, they aren't so picky now lol xx
Don't know about cats but sharing a bowl could be a problem! I have 2 dogs and one of them will not drink out the same bowl the other ones drank out of it! Always worth it a try! @firsttimemummy21 x
Tap water.
Do you drink tap water while pregnant? Is it safe to?

I've been buying bottled water since this Pandemic.
I have always drank tap water.... Now, I'm scared to drink tap water and I'm spending alot on these bottled water... Should I just go back to drinking tap water?
So I really have not been drinking water...I've been drinking lots of juice, lemonade, but not necessarily water. I just can't stand the taste of water and I'm picky about water I drink. I know I need to drink it though.
Any other mamas not drink water through there pregnancy or don't do well drinking water?
Will not drinking water affect my baby alot?
Do you or your children drink tap water?
can I drink tap water , while being pregnant ?
@firsttimemummy21, 😂😂 oh dear. Cats have traits of people with OCD, which is why they knock things off tables on purpose and constantly clean themselves. You can't really do anything about that, its part of their 'charm' haha. My cat used to rip things up all the time and scratch the wallpaper because its territorial and he was trying to show that area was his, especially when we got another cat. I bought a scratch post that screws onto the wall and put it right next to the entrance of the living room. I had to put catnip on it to get him to use it at first but its stopped him destroying things completely. He looks at my other cat all smug when he's scratching it haha. I also stapled thick scooby strings to the side and he likes chewing on them so doesn't bother with the tv wires as much... still does the occasional poo on them though! most awkward place to clean up a poo ever haha xx
