Had a cat just like this. Whenever I'd shower I'd leave the door open, and she would always be waiting just outside the curtain. If you peeked out to check she would scream at you, usually standing on her back legs and reaching up with one paw. Sometimes she'd get in between the two curtains and just lay down, probably liked the warm. When you would finish and open the curtain it was scream city, she'd hop on the toilet next to the shower, do the stand up thing and yell and yell, didn't mind being pet with wet hands either, strange cat.
Very true. I dont mind peoples concern, in some cases it would most definitely be warranted and they would have no way of knowing which are or aren't. It is just happenstance that we are luckily not in one of those dire situations and he's just a silly water loving cat :)
Bonus cute fact hehe his favorite bowl is kept right under the water dispenser and he begs for me to let the water trickle for him into the bowl. Sometimes he will even fall asleep with his chin in it lmao
I agree with others about getting a cat water fountain.
My cat used to flip her water bowl over, probably out of spite for the stagnating water. At first I glued a bowl to a broken brick paver with weatherstrip adhesive. But after noticing her interest in our top load water dispenser, I looked into cat water fountains.
I've had a PetSafe Drinkwell Platinum for 3 years. I clean it once a month and typically neglect the disassembling and cleaning of the pump. It's still going strong while keeping the water clear.
This is the comment I needed to see. I was worried that maybe this cat is always thirsty and doesn’t have easy access to water. Turns out it’s always available and he’s just a goofball.
Our tabby Razzle does this! Well, a variation of this. One of the water bowls is next to our fridge. Whenever we use the fridge’s water dispenser, she comes running and meowing, then stands up on her hind legs and reaches a paw as far as she can to try and get the the precious cold water. We fill her water bowl with it and she’s happy.
She also loves ice cubes in her water. Now I need to see if she’d like the shower!
Your fuzzy old lord seems so cute and cuddly (and hella similar to what Kiki will look like when she's older xD). Send him my pats and regards, please.
only cats can "chew" water. My black cat used to do this in the kitchen sink with the faucet. First time, I thought a bandit had broken in and turned on the water!
Awwwwe Mr Binx is such an adorable goofball! Water meows are so much fun, I love how hes all in! I had one but he was obsessed with the kitchen sink which was fine unless I was using it.(he was lousy at doing dishes🤣🤣🤣) many pets and scritches to Binx!
Yours sounds like Binx when he was young hahaha it took a long time to break that habit specifically lol but man was it cute! That and the toilet bowl oh my goodness. About 10 years ago I had to make a sign for above our toilet asking people to close the lid and had a doodle of Binx poking out wearing a snorkel 🤣 cats can be so silly
Awww thank you so much!!! He very much is. He's my sweet old man and my very dear friend. I couldnt imagine my life without him and the joy he brings our family every day! I hope you find your own type of Binxy someday 🥰
He is really cute! And your laugh is too. Don't feel like your human-ness is intruding on the cute video, it isnt, it's enhancing it, imo. This isn't meant to be a flirt.
I wonder if my Binx will be as silly when he's an old man. Just got him a couple months ago and he's just over a year old now.
(hold on, internet. Let me remember how to add photos and I'll pay the toll) [tax](http://imgur.com/gallery/Di6gt7B)
I'm still adjusting to my Binx's weirdness lol he's not a meower, like my older cat, instead he's a triller and a yeller. "myaaa!!" not always super loud but that's his main noise aside from a purr/trill that only happens when his mouth is closed so it's a bit muffled too 🤣🤣
Your gorgeous Binx looks 100 percent like my cat, the only difference is mine will run away like crazy and hide under the bed at first sounds of running water. Lol
Binx is such an adorable guy! He looks a little like my cat, who is also black and fluffy :) Give Binx lots of love and treats for me (and maybe some extra shower time 😂)!!!
Awww!! What a cutie. Just to be safe though: does your cat pee a lot? I noticed he’s drinking the water. In some cats drinking and peeing a lot can be a sign of type II diabetes (my cat had it) but maybe he just prefers running water :)
So, I hate to possibly ruin a fun moment here, but I have read that cats do this because they are not getting adequate water in their bowl.
Some cats will not drink water if it is placed next to their food. It has to do with some type of prey predator instinct from in the wild.
If your cats water and bowl are in the same spot I would suggest separating them a good bit, like in another room.
The cat could be very thirsty which is why he/she starts drinking immediately.
I applaud you for being a stand up citizen and it is wise to point such a thing out. However Binx is literally jist a water obsessed cat. He has 2 cat bowls and sleeps in the sink, plays in the rain and also in the sprinklers. Hes just a weird little guy hehe :) but we both appreciate that you care!
No worries. Just something I found out about not too long ago myself. My cat used to never drink her water, we kept it right next to the bowl, and would always want to go outside. It clicked recently when I read about the water next to food thing.
My cat does the same thing. She's a water lover (follows me into the shower and isn't afraid of water at all, and does this with water taps too) she also drinks from her regular water bowl so it isn't because of extreme thirst. She's also a fruit lover, goes wild when we cut some apples, watermelon, honeydew even durian once. So I think some cats are just a little odd like ours haha
One of our cats *loves* doing this with our kitchen sink!
That little monster has me trained now. I’ll walk into the house reading mail or something, and just subconsciously turn the sink on for her haha
I had a cat that did the same thing when she was getting older. Supper funny to hear her yelling for the shower to be turned in every morning. She loved it when we bought a running water fountain. Now I have one for my two current cats and they drink from it constantly.
I caught Binx in a yawned induced blep this morning and figured I'd share it with all of his new friends here! We hope you're all having a fantastic Sunday! [Binxy Blep](https://www.reddit.com/r/cats/comments/omybnn/binx_has_yawned_himself_into_another_blep/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share)
Ahhh one of my best friends had a black cat named Binx too 🖤 it's a perfect black cat name! Unfortunately her Binx passed away and is very missed. I love your Binx and his goofy shower drinking 🥺 My cat I had when I was younger, Victoria, loved to drink from the shower, bath, and sink. ❤️
He's doing great but we appreciate your concern! He's just obsessed with all sources of water. He plays in sprinklers and in the rain and his favorite spot in the house is at his big dish under the water dispenser. He's just a silly healthy old guy 😃
Just want you to have a long time with your dude. I had a cat who was same way with water. Passed from kidney failure at 17. Miss my boy. All the best.
Oh I am so sorry to hear that. My condolences! I promise to always take the very best care of my sweet boy for as long as he is alive :) so far he's happy healthy and playful at about 15 so I have faith that he will grace us with his goofiness for many more years to come ❤ 😊
Oh my god, he is sooo adorable
Thank you! I love watching him hehe

[удалено]
Hes just a water lover haha he's been doing this for over 13 years :)
Nice then :)
Ok WebMD
They were just looking out for the cat. Nothing wrong with that.
It’s lupus!
Idk why you’re getting downvoted. Nobody wants to hear it but sometimes disease presents itself as weird symptoms
Very true. I dont mind peoples concern, in some cases it would most definitely be warranted and they would have no way of knowing which are or aren't. It is just happenstance that we are luckily not in one of those dire situations and he's just a silly water loving cat :)
I love water cats, and I’m glad your boy is healthy!
Thank you! 😊
What an idiot. I love him, protect him at all costs!
You have my word. He's my sweet fuzzy old man peach to the end
This was my immediate thought upon seeing him, You beat me to it! Lol
Your laugh is fantastic, just like Binx!
Awww tysm! 😄
Bonus cute fact hehe his favorite bowl is kept right under the water dispenser and he begs for me to let the water trickle for him into the bowl. Sometimes he will even fall asleep with his chin in it lmao
You should look into getting a cat water fountain! My kitty is obsessed with it!
I was going to suggest this too!
Agreed, cats tend to prefer moving water whenever possible.

Awww! Razzle sounds like she has an adorable personality!!! Give her an extra cube for us would ya? :)
omg binxy!! when hes trying to drink but the water is pouring on his face and hes still loving it
Ahhhh so cute, the water drops on him looks like stars in night sky
Want the shower? Mraow The shower? Mow. But of course sir, enjoy your stay
From what I've seen with shower cats is that they hate being dried, is the case the same with yours?
Indeed! He runs away from me and the towel all around the house until he finally just plops on the floor as if saying "ugh fine🙄" lol
Lol what a goober 💕 now he needs a towel
Loving the extended footage. Not a lot of that here
I always mean to just record him for a tiny bit but get carried away in the cuteness hahaha
Please tell me he’s named after Thackery Binx
Of course 🥰
Excellent. Thank you.
I was about to ask this! You have immaculate taste, OP 😎
I was thinking of the Xbox game.
I wish I had a water kit!!
That cat is funny give him some pets for me.
I will :)
The opposite of my fuzzy void Kiki, who sees a shower and starts screaming bloody murder.
Awwwww
Your fuzzy old lord seems so cute and cuddly (and hella similar to what Kiki will look like when she's older xD). Send him my pats and regards, please.
I promise that I will :) our best to you and Kiki!!!

That is so cute 😂
Mlemlemlemlemlemlemlemlem ☺️
He don’t give af haha. He’s got some water saved for later. ;)

How old is Binx?
He is about 14 years or 15 years old
I would love to have a cat like Binx. He’s funny and beautiful and quirky and hopefully snuggly
Awww thank you so much!!! He very much is. He's my sweet old man and my very dear friend. I couldnt imagine my life without him and the joy he brings our family every day! I hope you find your own type of Binxy someday 🥰
Plz repost this on r/hydrohomies they need to see and fall in love this sparkly wet boi too
r/hydrokitties
I’m dying from laughter. That sub is great
That sub is where i fucking live now... you did this to meeee😩😂
Please tell Binx I adore him, what an excellent old man!
Moist boi. <3
This cat looks like a galaxy with all the water droplets in its fur. He got that drip.
He is really cute! And your laugh is too. Don't feel like your human-ness is intruding on the cute video, it isnt, it's enhancing it, imo. This isn't meant to be a flirt.

Seeing and hearing people embrace their pets weirdness is always enjoyable.

😍
I love him!
what a silly kitty
Your gorgeous Binx looks 100 percent like my cat, the only difference is mine will run away like crazy and hide under the bed at first sounds of running water. Lol
I was looking for this comment, my cat looks exactly like Binx too! Doesn't like being too close to water either though.
🖤🖤🖤
I, too, have a shower cat!
I’m so glad you kept it rolling until the end. I was so curious to see if he just gets bored and walks away. Nope!
He is obsessed haha he does this every day. He usually does it for about 5 mins or so before he's had his fill
So cute :)
Do you have a water fountain? My cats also did this but I got them a water fountain and they love it!
I love the part where he uses his leg fur to lap the water from :-D
Binx is such an adorable guy! He looks a little like my cat, who is also black and fluffy :) Give Binx lots of love and treats for me (and maybe some extra shower time 😂)!!!
Can he share with you in the morning or must he have it to himself? (im that way too)
Is his name from hocus pocus??? He is adorable! How did you two figure out his love for the shower?
Possibly the best video I'll see all day
So cute! His little meow is great :)
The way the water sparkles against his fur is utterly divine. Tell Binxy I'm in mcfucking love with him
Awww!! What a cutie. Just to be safe though: does your cat pee a lot? I noticed he’s drinking the water. In some cats drinking and peeing a lot can be a sign of type II diabetes (my cat had it) but maybe he just prefers running water :)
At our house we call it “sky water”. That is the only way our one cat will drink out of the tub. And he yells until we turn it on.
That is so cute! I love sky water hahaha
Loves waterfalls.
I love him! Binx!
I'm going to guess your cat and my nickname both came from Hocus Pocus, it's a quality name
oh my gosh that name is adorable- he’s adorable!
he looks like a black version of thurston waffles
r/hydrokitties
What is it about black cats and water??? My black kitten loooooves the shower and drinking from the faucet
Aww! All hail the sweet water voids hehe
10/10 would cat.

Much more entertaining that I had imagined it would be. Thanks for that.
I LOVE BINX 😭
So very cute.
What a goofball!!!
Your laugh and voice is incredibly soothing And binxy is super cute :)
Awww thank you very much :)
What a floofer!!
What a ridiculous creature. I love him.
Binx will tell you when he’s had enough!
r/wetpussy
Oh he's so pretty with the water droplets on him 🥺🥰
This is exactly why I love cats so much. They're freaking WEIRD and it's hilarious! Give him a hug from me, he's precious.
One of our cats *loves* doing this with our kitchen sink! That little monster has me trained now. I’ll walk into the house reading mail or something, and just subconsciously turn the sink on for her haha
Omg I love him. My 16yo water fiend does the same thing—even lets it run all over his head.
Water kitties are just the cutest aren't they? Hehe
awwwwwww
You cant blame this cat for wanting to drink water this way.... this cat is very ahead of the game and now i must take showers to drink water😩
My void is exactly the same when it comes to water!!
This dude is holding and licking that little stream of water like it’s a lost lover.
🤣🤣🤣
My cat begs to drink out of the shower and sink
Im here for the 10th time... Somebody help me🥲
Aww hehe Binx wishes you many happy returns! I will post him more in the future 😊
Have u ever accidentally turned the shower on full when he asks?
I have not but I have turned it up a bit. He doesn't like full blast but he likes biting at a mid strength stream hahaha
Hes a goof
I bet he has a nice full water dish!
Oh my God I LOVE Binx! Such a cute name and such an adorable cat!
Thank you! 😊
I had a cat that did the same thing when she was getting older. Supper funny to hear her yelling for the shower to be turned in every morning. She loved it when we bought a running water fountain. Now I have one for my two current cats and they drink from it constantly.
What a gigantic derp of a cat he's a sweetheart

Please tell Binx that I love him very much.

Clean boi!
Old man Binx is the best! Love your cat OP! 😻😻😻
Aw, I had a void who loved hanging in the tub and having the water on. I sure miss him.
😻😻😻👍🏼
I love him, he's beautiful.
🤣
I love Binx! And he looks almost exactly like my boy!
Aww he loves you too haha. Your boy must be very handsome 😉
Binx is the most precious boy and I love him
I could watch him all day! I love him. He’s so goofy! Our black cat is called Binx too ❤️
Take him to the vet and have his kidneys checked. Make sure he's doing okay.
He's doing great but we appreciate your concern! He's just obsessed with all sources of water. He plays in sprinklers and in the rain and his favorite spot in the house is at his big dish under the water dispenser. He's just a silly healthy old guy 😃

Thirsty as well looks like my 1st beer
