Awww Mondays

Join us every Monday for Awww…Mondays.

Post a picture that makes you say Awww…and that’s it.

Make sure you leave a link to your post and I’ll visit your Awww…Mondays post.

What better way to start the week than with a smile.

Squeaker loves the water. If you’re washing dishes she’s usually near by watching the water. She became interested in our reverse osmosis and hubby turns it on so she can drink out of it. It took her some time to do so, but she’s got it down now. Nothing better than fresh water.

    Two of Rosie’s siblings loved to drink from the faucet, the others were to lazy to jump !

  3. Wing Commander Basil & The B Team – UK – Well, now there's a question! Furstly and most importantly I'm a cat if mew hadn't already guessed. I got my Wing Commander status in September 2018 but that hasn't slowed me up at all! I tweet, Instacat, FB, Tumble & Pin too and now there's Basil TV on YouTube. All in all I'm a thoroughly Modern Cat; a cat of the 21st century, mew might say. My human & Purrsonal Assistant aka P.A. is Cathrine Garnell, and she writes books including a tale about my fictional alter ego, Basil the Bionic Cat. [See Books Page] I live in a multi-cat household, and mew can meet the rest of The B Team here most days of the week, as they all like a turn on the blog. I like mice, but then don't we all? I also like fresh tuna, chicken and prawns. I LOVE catnip, not in any excess I might add before mew jump to any wild conclusions. Thanks so much for dropping by, as we The B Team, love making new furriends, so do leave us a comment and say hi.

    Callie is a faucet drinker, and a bathroom sink sitter. We give her filtered water from the refrigerator, since we don’t like the tap water here. Last week she had her annual with our mobile vet, and is a healthy girl. Happy Monday. Hugs!

      Squeaker does these things too. We love her so. She’s a crazy pants and often. Hugs, my friend. Great news on Callie. 🙂

      I’ve never had a kitty that loved drinking from the water faucet. Until now that is. 🙂

      Squeaker is such a wonderful kitty. She’s most lovable and such fun. She’s a lot of entertainment for Zane and I. Love and hugs, my friend. 🙂

    DrillerAA says:

    Pets are funny people. Lucy likes her water cold, so I get the filtered water out of the refrigerator door then add some ice, so that it stays cold longer. She will sit and watch the process, then get her a long, cool drink before starting the rest of her morning.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      We did ice cubes with Angel Little Bit. She love ice cold water too. Precious memory. Happy week, my friend. 🙂

      Sandee says:

      It’s fun to see the difference in kitties. What one does the other doesn’t. Scritches to the girls. 🙂

      She is most entertaining. We love our kitties. Love and hugs to you and Ziggy. 🙂

    Aww…so heartwarming a photo and Squeaker is adorable! Thank you Sandee, this made me smile. Happy Awww Monday and peace to you.

  8. Heidrun ⛱ says:

    How sweet seeing Squeaker playing with water. No, our cats don’t have this done. This scene here makes me smiling.

    Thank you for sharing and for hosting. Have a wonderful week.

    Xena and Lucy says:

    I’ve always heard that cats hate water, but I keep seeing pictures on blogs of cats playing with and drinking running water. I do know from experience that most of them hate baths even worse than most dogs do, LOL!

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I’ve never tried to give a cat a bath, but they do love water. Happy week. Scritches to the pups. 🙂

      Sandee says:

      Lots of fresh water all over the place is a good thing when it’s hot out. 🙂

  11. The OP Pack says:

    We are too big to get near the sink faucets or else Mom would not be happy to see us on her counters. But we do love fresh cold water. After her walk when it is hot, Misty likes to splash all her drinking on the tile floor in the laundry room and then lie down in it – silly girl.

      Our angel Little Bit loved to lay in cool water too. It’s a good way to cool down. Scritches to the pups and thanks for playing along today. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Things happen. It’s barely a drip, but she expects it being turned on each morning. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      She is the first kitty that has done this. So precious. 🙂

    Squeaker, you are amazing and talented. Give your mom and dad a purr from me and tell them to give you and Lil’ Bit some extra scritches, too.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      We’re happy to give them extra scritches. Both our kitties are amazing and talented. Hugs. 🙂

    That’s terrific that Squeaker enjoys drinking water.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      She’s the first kitty that’s ever drank out of the tap. I’ve had many kitties in my 73 years. 🙂

  14. CAAC says:

    There’s nothing like the taste of fresh, cold water on a hot summer day! I have to know, can Squeaker turn the water on or is help needed? 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Not yet, but we think she will in time. It won’t do the system good when it runs dry though. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      I watched Squeaker this morning having her drink. She will sit there and wait for you to turn it on. So precious. 🙂

    That’s so cute, Squeaker! Fresh water from the tap is the best! Our angel cat Moosey used to drink from the faucet, and did not even care if the stream was running off of his head. 🙂

      Sandee says:

      Every morning she’s there for her morning drink. So precious. 🙂
