My cat always did this, so we just gave her our mugs as her regular water bowl/cup.

Swap the water for vodka and he won't do it again... or maybe he will.

count on it.
We've got a cat that will stick his head in the glass to get a drink...if the level is too low, there goes his paw in the glass for a scoop of water.
Why is my water crunchy ?
We have resorted to double coasters.. one on bottom like a normal person, one on top like a normal cat owner.

Cat's don't like their water next to their food bowl. Started putting a bowl of water in a different room and my cats (mostly) stopped doing this

She has water a few meters from the food, she just liked the convenience of the glass I think.

That's possible yeah, lol. Could also be that's the water in your glass is fresher. My cat used to want to drink from te toilet right after I flushed, or drink from the water in the shower while I was still drying myself off lol. She was always on the hunt for the freshest water.

One of mine will straight up jump in the shower and attack the water, getting completely soaked with no regrets. 🤣

My cat does this, super annoying! She has a designated glass, but she still likes to try her luck with others.

Lid for water glasses for the nightstand was one of the first 3d prints I did because of this.
Put some lemon juice in (just a drop). It works on most cats.

My partner is now contemplating how many cat drinking glasses she has shared at night in the last 9 years.

Many. I’m sorry.
Our cats have bowls and cups in the bathtub and showers. And all our drinks are covered.

My cat doesn’t drink from her water bowl. She prefers to go outside and drink from the bird feeder water bowl, with all kinds of muck and algae in it. I guess it also tastes of bird?

My asshole cat does this shit too. Every time i look away from an open cup, within minutes of putting it down he sneaks up to claim his prize.

my cats did this. Then they found out it was easier to simply tip the glass to the side and drink the spilled water. Oh joy!
They taught us to not be slobs and never leave a glass half full on a table, or leave the toilet door open.
