Today we give you… Wet cats! Since cats are generally thought to be adorable and charming lords in the world of internet technology, we decided it was high time to take the humour back by showing how cute cats appear when they are wet. Maybe they’re just better when they become wet cats.
We have also provided info on why do cats hate water down below:
#1
You probably know that they are fond of mice and they hate water naturally. Cats living in colder climates are averse to water. You can see this clearly in the photos of cats below, as they don’t manage their temperature well in the event that their fur gets damp. Since they’re habitual of bathing using their tongues, they might not see any sense in taking baths.
#2
While it’s not like it in these photos, Cats are definitely adept at embracing water. A majority of cat breeds which come into contact with water at an early age don’t worry about it as much as felines who only experience cold and wetness whenever it’s raining. Turkish Vans and large cats in hot and dry environments are all awed by swimming in the water to stay cool. Household cats are not really fans of being wet cats.
#3
While street cats may require an occasional bath from time to the point that they are filthy, most domestic cats will not require to bathe often or at all. If your cat grooms itself on a regular basis and is clean, it will remain free of dirt. Additionally, if water falls inside the ears of a cat who’s not familiar with it, it could cause irritations or other issues. Even as hilarious as these funny photos may be, don’t bathe your cat unless they absolutely require bathing!

Were You Ever Curious About Why Cats Hate Water?
Aversion toward water is one of the most widely-known traits of domestic kitties. But this isn’t the case for all the cat breeds. Large cats, like tigers, are known to have a dip to cool off or to hunt prey. Even some domesticated breeds take a dip whenever they have the chance.
However, in general, domestic cats take great measures to avoid getting wet, and behaviourists have come up with several theories that explain why. One theory suggests that since the animals evolved in dry climates and were not exposed to lakes or rivers, water (except to drink) is a factor they don’t know about and therefore are able to avoid.

It is more likely that cats don’t want to get wet due to how it affects their fur. Cats are meticulous animals and spend a lot of their time grooming themselves. Wet fur is very uncomfortable for cats and usually takes some duration to dry. It’s also heavier than dry and can make a cat less agile and more difficult for predators to take.
Additionally, there is the fear factor. In the event of a slip, falling into a full bath, for instance, is a terrifying experience for a cat and may cause it to be afraid to swim for the remainder of its life.
#12
However, many cats appear to be enthralled by playing with flowing or drippy water, such as from a tap. The behaviourists believe that cats are attracted by the movement of the water and the sound it produces and can trigger a cat’s instinctual desire to hunt prey. It is also accepted even for a water-phobic cat, as only the cat’s feet get submerged.
Certain domestic cat breeds like cats such as the Maine Coon, Bengal as well as the Turkish Van, are not as fearful of water and even take pleasure in a swim every now and then. What makes these breeds distinctive is their texture fur. That is what makes them more resistant to water than other breeds. Enjoy the rest of the photos!!
