My cat has started drinking out of the sink, but also drinks out of the water bowl. Is it normal? ?

Question

She knows the water bowl is there, but drinks out of the sink more often. We fill the bowl with the same water. Is it because she wants fresh water, or what? Also, she starts trying to sharpen her claws on the sink after she's done drinking. (She's unsuccessful though) Any idea why she does that?

Answer 1

My cats do the same thing.  Right after I turn off the faucet, they like to get up there and drink out of it.  I don't think it's anything to worry about.  They just like doing something out of the norm sometimes.. haha.
