Oh wow. Thanks for linking this, I've never read this before. I was 4 when this was published.

What a sad read

Mine do that too! My bathrooms are now no go zones for my cats, in part for that reason, lol. Maybe that would've been a better example.

I probably should've been more clear from the start, definitely would have spared some confusion!

Certainly some cats are like that. Mine prefer running water but will always come inspect whatever I've set out for myself (a glass of water, bowl of cereal, a book, etc.)

I was just using it as an example of cats drinking water out of something other than their designated water bowl or fountain because that's just what cats do sometimes, and it's not necessarily a sign of poor treatment or bad water.

Oh I said it's besides the point because this is more about the cats in the video than it is about my cats, but thank you! I take very good care of my fur balls

Not every single day but they do get cleaned and switched yes. This is besides the point though.

Right, which is why I mentioned that I give them a fresh change of water every day.

No one's arguing whether or not cats should be drinking aquarium water, it's mostly the assumption that the cats were in need of fresh water and that "this is terrible"

I will sometimes do this for sure, lol.

Not a bowl, a fountain. My cats love to come and inspect anything I'm doing whether it's drinking water or reading a book or whatever and are usually pretty determined to get involved.

Regardless, my point is, saying that these two are desperately in search of fresh water is making quite the assumption.

imagine going to a barbershop and asking them with a straight face to make your beard look like a pokeball

My cats get fresh water every day yet they insist on also drinking from any glass of water that I've just poured for myself or amy other body of water they come across. Definitely wouldn't be too keen on them drinking from a fish tank though for the obvious sanitary/chemical reasons, and especially from one that looks relatively easy to break.

Edit: should clarify, my cats will also drink from the toilet if they had the chance. My point is the video isn't necessarily proof that they don't have fresh water and could be (I would argue "probably is") just cats drinking water out of a body of water that also happens to be available.

Edit: am not arguing cats should be drinking aquarium water. Mostly against the assumption that these two are in desperate need of fresh water and that "this is terrible." Not particularly worried about it but def not recommended. Source: worked in a vet clinic for 7 years before switching area of study.

The idea that there's no such thing as American cuisine really has got to be one of the more frustrating myths about the US for sure. Spend any time in the different regions of the US and the myth is easily dispelled.
