Some cats have a habit of pushing their water bowl before drinking from it.

We'll tell you why our pets do this and whether it's possible to wean them off it.

Why does a cat push a bowl of water?

First, some cats just enjoy playing with water.

Secondly, many cats do not like it when the water bowl is next to the food bowl.

There is also a hypothesis that cats move the bowl to check the water level, since they have poor vision up close.

It is useless to wean a cat from splashing water. Buy your pet a wide bowl, place it away from the food bowl.

You can also try replacing the bowl with a drinking fountain.
