My son recently got a fish for a pet – three guppy fish to be exact. We decided it was no use actually naming them until we saw how our cat, Lulubelle, was going to embrace their existence and residence in our her house. Thus, a formal introduction was arranged.
Lulubelle paced around and around the bowl.
Sniffed the contents.
Looked wide eyed at the moving objects inside.
Batted at the glass.
Tested the water with a paw.
It was touch and go there for a while.
Would the poor defenseless fish actually survive our heartless, survival-of-the fittest cat?
And then it happened.
Lulubelle stuck her head into the bowl and…
… drank the water.
I am thinking, in the end, she decided it was too much work for such a small prize.
Oh and probably, she was thirsty.
Besides, Take Out Delivery is just so much more convenient.
Ha! – the drama and all for a drink of water – too funny:) Have a Great One!
I know – she is such a drama queen! I think it feeds her ego to keep us guessing.
I wonder if fish infused water tastes nice? Not suggesting that you try it or anything mind 😉
ha! Yes, I will leave that to the cat!
Cute story! Our cat, Java (remember) made sure any hamsters Lori brought into “his house” had a very short life .
I do remember Java – poor hamsters!!
Poor fishies!
I know! I am sure they were traumatized. But the cat has remained relatively uninterested in them.
The good news: when the guppies start floating on the top (which guppies are prone to do), Lulubelle will probably help you with cleanup (which cats are prone to do). Lulu is so-o-o-o cute. Nikki
haha! I am not sure she will go for the “floaters” but you never know! Yeah, she is cute, and as I have said before, she knows it too!
