Why does my cat do this?

Why does my cat tip over his water bowl every night? What can I do to make him stop?

Answer #1

My cat likes to drink out of glasses and if the water gets to low, she puts her paw in it. Your cat could be just playing in it, that would be my guess. Either get a bowl holder or get a weighted one so he can’t tip it over. Or try filling it up all the way before you go to bed and see if he still tips it over.

Answer #2

Cats like to play… I got mine one of those refillable water bowls, and she emptied out the whole thing! So I put it on the sink, if she wants to splash, she can splash into the sink… Sometimes you gotta get creative… And if all else fails, get a new bowl she cant tip over…

Answer #3

Get a water bowl holder…or even use one of those weighted food bowls for dogs…the only way to MAKE her stop is to make it impossible to move.
