Cat Forum / General Topics / September 2004In the sink?
My cat has decided that she likes to sleep in the bathroom sink! Now as cute as she looks I'm wondering why she would want to be crowded in such a small space - actually it kind of fits her size kind of nice - but it is kind of unsanitary isn't it?

With cats there is a new law that was recently passed by congress......the larger the cat the smaller the box they will try to get into. The same applies to sinks and other objects that can remotely contain a cat. Try letting the water drip a little, may cure the cat of the desire to get into the sink. Also does the cat have enough water to drink? > My cat has decided that she likes to sleep in the bathroom sink! Now > as cute as she looks I'm wondering why she would want to be crowded in > such a small space - actually it kind of fits her size kind of nice - > but it is kind of unsanitary isn't it? considering where your cat licks with it's tongue... the bathroom sink in probably not terribly unsanitary btw: i;ve heard the the kitchen sink is actually the most un-sanitary place in the house! >btw: i;ve heard the the kitchen sink is actually the most un-sanitary place >in the >house! Nope. That would be one 1. the toilet. 2. the mail box during election season. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v299/darkmaidon/Elorahsink.jpg <snort> Mar ----------------------- Total Fishkeeping http://totalfishkeeping.co.uk/index.php?

Maybe a way to tell you that she'd like one of those sink shaped soft moulds on a cat tree? Mine love theirs! Carola Nikka used to sleep in a plastic punch bowl on top of the kitchen cupboards. When she got bigger she moved to my laundry basket on top of the dryer. Now she has about 10 different places she can be found to be sleeping. She liked the bathroom sink as a kitten because the tap used to drip and she had fun playing with the drips and then had a ready source of water. It no longer drips so the bathtub is her game of choice. Jane > | My cat has decided that she likes to sleep in the bathroom sink!

Unsanitary for you or the cat? LOL. I think it's fine. Actually it's a logical choice in the warmer weather. The porcelain is one of the coolest surfaces in the house and the size and shape is pretty close to the kitty beds. AG >> My cat has decided that she likes to sleep in the bathroom sink!

Actually I was thinking that about the porcelin - the same reason why I think she likes to lay on the kitchen table.

My cats also like to sleep in sinks. The sanatation issue never bothered me. Ed I've always find a cat sleeping in the sink to be cute & adorable--a can't miss photo opportunity. If you want it to stay out, though, then I guess you could leave a little dripping in the sink--although I have seen cats use that as a drinking opportunity. Or, you could squirt with a water gun everytime you catch the cat in there--or leave the bathroom shut if you don't need to have the bathroom open for any reason. > My cat has decided that she likes to sleep in the bathroom sink!

I put a little basket in the sink to keep her out - she saw that and didn't like it - LOL! So she started sleeping on the side. When I put the basket back next to the sink - she decided she didn't like it there and knocked it down! She is a defiant kitty! Rose http://members.aol.com/Roseb44170/home.html "How did I ever get talked into this?" Cats love to sleep "surrounded" like that, but with their head free. It's a comforting feeling that reminds them of being in the womb. That's why you find them backing into handbags, beds, etc. > My cat has decided that she likes to sleep in the bathroom sink!
