Cat Becomes Internet Sensation with Bold Behavior
Quick Smiles:
- Mitty the cat shocks the internet by sipping bathwater like soup.
- Most cats avoid water, but Mitty breaks the mold in a viral TikTok video.
- Experts explain why cats typically dislike water and how to gently introduce them to it.
An orange cat named Mitty has taken the internet by storm with his unusual behavior during his owner’s bath time.
In a TikTok video that quickly gained popularity, Mitty is seen strolling along the edge of the bathtub, only to dip his face into the warm water and drink it as if it were a delicious broth.
“Mitty, it’s hot! Mittens!” his owner cautions, but Mitty seems unfazed, continuing to savor the bathwater.
“Good soup!” she adds, capturing the humor of the moment.
While Mitty’s antics are endearing, they are far from typical feline behavior.
Most cats are known to shy away from water, a tendency rooted in their genetics.
According to experts, cats’ wild ancestors were not accustomed to water, making it an unfamiliar element for them.
Another reason for their aversion is the discomfort of a wet coat, which becomes heavy and takes ages to dry.
Cats also enjoy being in control, and water can make them feel restricted.
Some veterinarians suggest that with patience and positive reinforcement, some cats can gradually become more comfortable with water.
However, it’s crucial to respect their boundaries and avoid forcing them into situations that make them uneasy.
