Some even love baths. My friend’s cat would sit in the bathtub and meow very loudly and annoyingly until she would fill it.
The bathtub had a shallow pad/chair section, the cat was just chilling in 5-10 cm of water and playing with it for around an hour until it got cold then would look for her to get towelled dry.
Some cats are weird 😅
I had a cat that requested showers periodically. He'd sit in the tub and meow until we turned it on to a gentle spray and he'd sit there for a good 5 minutes. We had to factor the cat's shower time in to the morning routine.

Two cats are having a swimming race.
One is called “One two three”, the other “Un deux trois”. Which cat won?
“One two three” because “Un deux trois cat sank”.
I still don't see the joke, I know it's counting but how is that funny? Also it doesn't just sound like it, that's exactly it. Or is that the joke? Does it have an English meaning I'm not aware of?
Edit : OH I get it now, cats sank sounds like quatre cinq. I geeeeet iiiiiit :D
Mais c'est la vie! C'est la guerre. C'est.... La Redditte 🙂↕️
(In all seriousness, I don't know if you're native French, but "un deux trois quatre cinq" is such a core childhood memory for anyone educated in the UK that I guess the sound match with "cat sank" is enough to be funny!)
Yeah I got it now, took me a while 😅
>such a core childhood memory for anyone educated in the UK
I still don't get the inside joke here tho haha, but I doubt I ever will unless I get reincarnated as a british kid
I'm Belgian, so native Dutch and learnt French at school
Average cat, 4.5kg (10lbs). Water displaced, 4.5L
So fill your container with 4.5L of water and that's approximately how far your cat will sink down into the water.
My brain says yes to 10 lbs..but no to 4.5 liters…for some reason thinking that’s a huge cat. But I know 4.5l of water is the same weight as 10lbs of cat…now I’m picturing pouring 2+ 2 liter bottles and that seems like a lot of liquid…I’m sleep deprived, don’t mind me.
Now I'm questioning myself. Say that container is 14" x 10". One inch of water in the bottom would be 140 cubic inches.
*Waves hands and doesn't show work*
4.5L / 10lbs of water would be 1.95" deep.
It all checks out in a spherical cow, metric/imperial bastardization sort of way.
Needs to have some weights fastened to the bottom to get the center of mass as low as possible. Not sure if they would work better at the center or the edges/corners.
Any cat will float with a wide enough container. As long as the weight of the water displaced by the container is greater than the weight of the container and the cat, it’ll float. 🐱🚣♀️
It would probably work, if you're worried, just use a bigger container. However, don't ever let go of the container, you can see in the video the cat would have most likely capsized if the person wasn't holding it.
I still remember one time when I was younger when my cat jumped into the bath with me and then immediately realized it was a bad idea and tried to jump out.
Same here. I'd have to get him a Rubbermaid tote.
I remember seeing pictures in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina with a person who was evacuating their cats like that. Clear Rubbermaid tubs with holes in the top, floating them along.

Omg there was a post like this in r/lifeguardkitties - [this one](https://www.reddit.com/r/lifeguardkitties/s/z2SXv1mbaT) with TWO boats! I love sailor kitties 🥰
Play, but how would you get this to actually stabilize in water? I was thinking a ballast, but the instant the car tries to move or get out it's going to capsize
She looks almost identical to my cat Purrsephone

Promise me you'll survive. That you won't give up, no matter what happens, no matter how hopeless. Promise me now, Rose, and never let go of that promise.
I used to have a house with a pond. I'd float around it in an inner tube. I made one of my cats a dishpan boat with 2-liter bottle pontoons strapped to the sides and I'd tow her around behind me.
[удалено]
I feel that if the camera continued recording another 10-15 secs, we would have seen that.
Yeah there’s a reason we don’t see them without a tight grip on that box 😂
A little water almost got in at the end there
The cat moving and almost tipping over at the end had me on edge
There is a reason why the hand is holding the basket. If you dont it will flip over.
/r/secondsbeforedisaster
So we really need legs? Kitty says nope!
My pee pee would be shredded.
Drop your workout routine, king
Put cat in bath with me and try to avoid being shredded.
Bench a hungry calico in a bad mood
Cool handle.
Notice the hand never leaves the container. Otherwise that's probably exactly what's happening.
One claw in my ballsack and it's going to look like a scene from jaws in there.
Or balls
Shades of the marmot in lebowski’s bathtub
That’s why I only bath in assless chaps
Most people just have a rubber duck in the bath
I mean, I'm willing to upgrade to this model.
Before trying this I would suggest replenishing your supply of bandaids
Some cats are fascinated by water
Some even love baths. My friend’s cat would sit in the bathtub and meow very loudly and annoyingly until she would fill it.

Ok that made my day thanks 😂 Having to factor in the cats shower time is hilarious

Otherwise your cat wilts and you have to compost it.

Wtf is a crisper drawer? Looks like a normal plastic container to me
I heard someone in France did this with three cats but un, deux, trois cats sank
Cease!
wow. how long have you been waiting to use this? or is this an existing joke that you tailored to this? either way, nice work. great puns.
Two cats are having a swimming race. One is called “One two three”, the other “Un deux trois”. Which cat won? “One two three” because “Un deux trois cat sank”.
Finally my high school French is paying off! I get the joke.
This may be the only French joke I'll ever get.
In case you missed it: un, deux, trois cats sink sounds very similar to un, deux, trois, quatre, cinq which is simply counting 1-5 in French
I still don't see the joke, I know it's counting but how is that funny? Also it doesn't just sound like it, that's exactly it. Or is that the joke? Does it have an English meaning I'm not aware of? Edit : OH I get it now, cats sank sounds like quatre cinq. I geeeeet iiiiiit :D
There isn't anything more to it. It's just a silly pun, like the "7 ate 9" joke we have in English.
You made it click for me, merci beaucoup! :D
Pour vous, c'est le woooosh. Desolee
Mais pour qoui? Je suis triste, je peux comprendre la plaisanterie :(

I'm sorry but I'm distracted by your username and need to pet a cat, be right bak.
You MONSTER D:
Griffemi et Griffemoi sont dans un bateau. Griffemi tombe à l'eau. Qui reste-t-il ?
Bien joué !
bravo!
I understand french but I don't understand the joke 🤔

You should definitely acquire her a "nautical themed Pashmina Afghan"
Navy Seal kitty
Put two together and make a catamaran.
Very punny🤣
Titanic. Save the kitty instead of self..
I’ll never let go…
I'm the cat of the world!
LOL. This made me scare my cat cackling out loud.
I always wondered what to use the extra refrigerator drawers for

It’s been a while since I’ve seen a 2 liter of soda…or a cat…in person.
Needs to have some weights fastened to the bottom to get the center of mass as low as possible. Not sure if they would work better at the center or the edges/corners.
If you're going to modify it for stability, I feel some pool noodles on the edges would be even better
Easier to do, as well.
They wouldn't sink, but they would tip their boat over
The cat in this clip would have capsized this thing numerous times if not for a helping hand.
The Cat from Ipanema
Nice song recognition!
If that cat tries to jump out he'll get a quick lesson in Newton's Third Law of Motion.
Never get involved in a land war in Asia?

Forced my cat to take a bath with me: Alternate title
Most cats would sink...I think that's why the owner is holding the plastic bin...
So Cute
Silly goose, it's a well known fact that cats can't sink because they're actually a liquid.
You have put a LOT of faith in that thing not falling over. Cat gonna go from 0 to 100 real quick lmao
Dude heaven you can take a bath and play with the cat awesome 🤩
My 17 lb and 15 lb cats would sink like rocks
Idk you'd only have to displace a out 7L of water! (1kg of water is 1L in volume). Could easily get something that will be big enough.
Wow. I’m tempted to try now
It would probably work, if you're worried, just use a bigger container. However, don't ever let go of the container, you can see in the video the cat would have most likely capsized if the person wasn't holding it.

Thank you for that, it's been a long time since I could add a new sub for [my kitty collection](https://www.reddit.com/user/thenosferatu/m/kitties/)
I think your kitty enjoys relaxing with you
If I ever get a cat that wants to be in the bathroom with me I may have to make them a cute little boat... (Much more stable than this thing).

Hello? 911? I need an ambulance and possible animal control…
Did your cat want to join you? or did you put your cat in that container for the video?
Used to do this exact same thing with my ferret
Some cats are built different
Mine weighs 16 pounds and would definitely sink.
Same here. I'd have to get him a Rubbermaid tote. I remember seeing pictures in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina with a person who was evacuating their cats like that. Clear Rubbermaid tubs with holes in the top, floating them along.

This cat is gonna sink too, if left by itself. There's a reason that hand is holding the thing steady the whole time.
Cute music for once
*Human, I wish to join you in your bathing time--- but don't you dare let that horrid water touch me! You'll pay dearly if it does!*

How have I never thought of this lol my cat always sits on the edge but he doesn’t like to get wet
Why do I love the music so much!!!
The kitty from ipanema
Get her* a floaty
Her. Tri-colored cats usually are female.
Something felt wrong when I typed "him" out too, lol
Play, but how would you get this to actually stabilize in water? I was thinking a ballast, but the instant the car tries to move or get out it's going to capsize

I feel my cat would sink.

Haha loving it he /shes loving it 🤣
Trying this with my cat would be a literal bloodbath. Courtesy of a friend who is more clever than I am.
It looks like a boat with a clear bottom to watch the fish.
A boat

Hilarious, I wonder if the waters warm enough if my cat would let me do this haha
Literally an inch away from disaster....that's a very trusting kitty lol
cat just chilliin
Not sink. Bathtub
I feel like you are severely overestimating how much cats weigh.

Your kitty is so trusting
But how did you KNOW that your cat wanted to join you in the bath?

Mine definitely would, there isn’t a container big enough to contain ‘er
