Bubba has always been sort of an odd duck. He likes to drink fresh water from the water bowl.
When Jen puts the fresh water down, he’ll kick it out of the bowl onto the tray.

He likes to stand in the water.
And then he’ll lick it off his feet.
See? I told you he was weird!
Oh no, not weird. I used to have a kitty that did almost the same thing…stand in the water and lick from the paw. Brothers from another mother?
Must be!
That’s very clever, Bubba has a foot bath and a drink… that’s what they call “all inclusive” in some hotels :o)
Maybe, but does he have to do that in MY water bowl?
My cat too!! π
Uh oh! It’s a conspiracy!
I haven’t heard it before π So lovely, π Thanks and Love, nia
And you see lots of cats that you photograph! I told ya he was different!
Could he possibly have hurt that paw and is trying to heal it ?
No, he’s always done that.
Maybe Bubba wants to be clean and washes his paws before he drinks. Of course, then he drinks from the bowl so he’s sending mixed messages. π
Yes!
Oh! Our third adopted cat ‘Tora’ does the same, when he drinks water!!! We thought it was only Tora who does it! Bubba does, too! π
I have that same tray! Bubba’s not weird he just likes what he likes. Our cat trixie puts her paw in the water bowl and drinks from her paw. She doesn’t do it all the time, but it is cute when she does.
I’d go with cute rather than weird!!
Love it…. Thank you for sharing… Don’t you just Love Cats…. and their ways.. π xxx
hahaha!!!! Crazy cat!
My one male kitty dips his paw in and drinks like that, but none of them actually stand in the water!!!! BOL!
α¦ husky hugz α¦ frum our pack at Love is being owned by a husky!
I had a cat who did the same thing. The heart wants what the heart wants….
I (Frankie Furter) used to SPLASH my water out all over the place… butt mom got a bowl that I can’t do it with any longer. ERNIE puts his paws in the water when he gets hot.
Cool! A bath and drink all in one!

It’s a cat things Rumpy! No explaining sometimes π
Maybe Bubba’s just testing that water out. You know … checking the depth, temperature and such. π
Oh Bubba, we adore eccentric cats π
Bubba, you no weird. You has inventive mind and we could using Cabinet members like you. You can sending applicatshiun to Purrime Ministerettes and we shall ovulate that!
