That's another great use for our doubled-up glass items. :D Lucky cats!
I remember I told a chap at the Cambridge Glass Fair (who was exhibiting a large streaky, knobbly WF glass bowl) "I use one of those for a cat bowl". He was very unimpressed, and I felt awful! lol!

I'm not sure I'd have used a streaky knobbly WF bowl for the cats, Max, I really like them, and would worry a little about causing water damage, on the other hand, I'm a little green around the edges, as I think about the idea of sophisticated cats drinking out of it! No different really to using lovely wine glasses, I think using beautiful things does enhance life.
Well done Leni!
Mine have recently taken to drinking out of a very old cut glass jug - although probably not antique yet. I don't think it's anything really good, but it's been in the family all my life and familiarity can breed contempt.
At my brother's house once I saw the cats jumping onto the coffee table and drinking out of the bowl of floating candles. I said, "The cats are drinking out of your floating candle bowl!". My brother said, "No, there are candles in the cat's drinking bowl."

I really like the sound of your brother!!!!!

I had to buy a 'tumble-up' for my night-time drink of water, 'cos one cat kept jumping up onto the bedside table and sticking her head in my glass of water! :evil: :roll:
I think I like your brother, too, Sue! :lol:
Max:
We have exactly the same problem here Leni, but we don't have a tumble-up. :(
Books placed on top of the glass are just shoved off with a paw. :evil: The only fail safe way to tell if your glass has been catted, is to check for splashes around the surrounding area. I'm sure we've shared our water with them before now. Ewww! Or is that Mewwwww! :roll: IGMC
