That's amazing Eileen - thanks for posting that link. I remember some while ago, Matt posted a great photo of one of his beautiful cats drinking and I found that so interesting as I had no idea that cats curl their tongues backwards.

Thanks for that link ~ interesting stuff. And the fact that other felids, including the large ones, drink the same way shows how similar a lot of domestic cat behaviours are to their wild counterparts.
