Awww, my Fergus and Ripley do the same thing in my tub. They want so badly to take a drink, but have to be ever-so-careful that they don't get dripped on!!!
haha thats soo cute I did that with the water and my Stormie took off, she didnt no what to do. Bella she runs and goes right back as long as she aint getting that wet haha, then again my cats are a litte nutty like their meowmy haha but Bella loves herself some water from the sink and the bath tub (she always tries to go into the bathroom now) But o my that is soo cute of your kittie they are so easily ammused sometimes and u are right just as long as it doesnt get on them then they dont care haha
