I swear I am going to have to start locking the Tortie in the bedroom when I clean the
kitty fountain. Otherwise she starts Getting Ideas: if she sees me taking the fountain apart, she wants to take the fountain apart.
Last night I dismantled it and washed all the various pieces, then put it back together and left it nicely bubbling away, full of clean water.
When I got up this morning, the top had been removed, the filter had been pulled a third of the way out, and the entire fountain had been pushed or dragged a good two feet, a journey which took it out of the tiled kitchen and into the carpeted living room.
And yes, the carpet is startlingly damp when you stumble across it barefooted and sleepy!
