When Cat Meets Water

I’ve always known that cats don’t like water very much, but this incident takes the cake. Our house has been without water for 2 days. Why? I’m glad you asked. I didn’t know either, until I called the water company and they assured me that, even though I have a habit of paying bills a few days late, they would never turn off the water because of that; moreover, my bill wasn’t even paid late. Then they asked the million-dollar-question: “Do you have any little children, Mr. Mills? Someone who could reach the valve and turn it off?”
“No little ones” I said, while realizing what had happened. In her excitement for the new balls and other toys, our little kitty had turned off the water main in the house. You always knew kittens didn’t like water, you just didn’t know the extent to which they could go to assure a waterless house!
