Not the toilet, but my last cat used to like to drink from full bathtubs. If you ran a bath and then left it for a few minutes, you'd find her on the edge having a drink. Once I came in and yelled her name, which startled her and she fell in the tub!
She also fell into a half-full fishtank once... It had a glass lid so when she jumped on top for the umpteenth time the lid cracked in half and in she went.

When I was in high school, my mom's cat Duke loved to drink from the toilet. (He's one of those cats who thinks he's a dog. I also think he's mildly retarded.
) Everytime my boyfriend came to visit, he would dip his paws in the toilet and then jump on him. He did this with my sister's boyfriends too. I know he fell in the toilet a few times, but I never had the good fortune of finding him in there.

I found my Rocket with his front paws in the toilet and had to face the cruel torture of a bath, he has never done it again.

Friend of mine had a similar experience. She and her boyfriend had just adopted a kitten. Well, they left the lid up, and...well, you know the rest. They think she hit her head when she fell in.


But, as far as my two...so far, no toilet stories. Brandon and I are sticklers about putting the lid down, so most people respect that (and when someone new comes over, we're strange enough to go into the bathroom and make sure it's down, lol).

Trent, being a little stinker, saw her little butt sticking up and just couldn't resist! He came running into the bathroom, smacked Ophelia on the butt causing her to slide into the toilet, turned around and high-tailed it out of there! I could have sworn I heard him laughing!!!
This is sooo funny Trent's a meanie!! No, so far Villy has stayed well away from the toilet!!

YES!!

Davidson fell in yesterday morning - John said he was in the kitchen before work and he heard him meowing and crying - so he went in the bathroom and here he was - in the toilet, STUCK! Trying to get out! He was so wet that he couldn't get himself out - from now on, we keep the toilet lid shut!

Hubby and I are the same - lid is always down. Last weekend, I went into the bathroom and the lid was up. I thought I was beginning to have senior moments and then remembered my mother had visited.

Fortunately, no kitties in the toilet.

I read that this was common, especially with kittens when I was reading about how to kitten-proof our apartment before we even got Anya. Our lid has always been down since we got her. Maybe I worry too much.

Where my cats are
Noodles is our toilet dunker around here! But its been since she was about 12weeks old since she did it last. Poor baby!

Pumpkin (at my parent's) likes to watch the water when you flush.

Hendrix has not yet. She has been caught drinking from it. So now we dont leave it open anymore.

I think Joplin would if we left the toilet open!
