Cats are known for their aversion to water. Most of them run away when they see a bath or shower, and if someone tries to wash them, they make sounds as if they are being killed. However, not all cats are so afraid of water.
There are breeds that are not only not afraid of water, but also love to swim and play with it. Here are three of them.
Turkish Van
This breed is named after Lake Van in Turkey, where it originated. Turkish Vans are excellent swimmers and fishermen.
They have water-repellent fur and powerful paws with webbing between the toes.
They love to swim in natural bodies of water or in the bathtub, and also play with water from the tap or shower.
Maine Coon
This breed is the largest of all domestic cats. Maine Coons originate from the state of Maine in the United States, where they have adapted to the cold climate.
They have thick and fluffy fur that protects them from moisture and cold. Maine Coons love to play with water and are not averse to taking a shower or diving into a pool.
Abyssinian cat
This breed is considered one of the most ancient and originates from Africa or Asia.
Abyssinian cats are very active and curious animals that are interested in everything that happens around them.
They love to play with water and can spend hours watching it move or catching streams from a faucet or fountain.
These three breeds of cats are an exception to the rule that cats do not like water. You can safely bathe them and not be afraid that they will resist or suffer. On the contrary, they will be happy with such entertainment and will give you a lot of positive emotions.
