Hi Rae,
I own 2 cats. One is a big lump and the other Miss Kipper is a mix siamese domestic. She has this fetish with the water dish. It doesn't matter where I place the water bowl, but she HAS to move it like 2 feet with her paw, sometimes spilling it all over the place. And several times a day, I have to move it back...strange..I don't know why she does that.
