Well, that was a good visualization of how much air a cat’s lungs can hold.

Kitty is going to end up with a snoot-full, came close a few times.

mmm, catsbreath tea

I’m not surprised. Despite being liquids themselves, cats usually are astonishingly bad at hydrodynamics. Or even basic plumbing, for that matter.

i guess that’s what they do when nursing…?

That’s so cute! A visualized breathing exercise. By a kitteh.

Sure, kitty might succeed with water. I’ll be afraid if I see one master the more difficult Sinbad straw/milkshake challenge, though!

Close, Cat’s spit tea!

[MrProtocol]

I really don’t think the cat is trying to drink. It’s playing with the water.

I wish I would catch my cats doing this, because it’s too darn cute. I’d love to see the owner’s reaction the first time they found their cat doing this.

I could never catch our cats doing that, mostly because no pot with a stem.

But we did have a problem years ago with a bedroom light that kept getting turned on, we thought it was a ghost.

But, one day I caught one of our cats getting on the night table under the switch and she turned it on.

My reaction was “no effing way”.
