Small cat has started drinking out of the toilet again.

It saves remembering to fill up the water bowl.

Done competently, it seems harmless.

Done incompetently, they'll soon decide there are better sources of water.  After running through the house dripping toilet water at speeds in excess of R17.

I've historically got into the habit of leaving the seat down, partly as Kim says, to avoid soggy moggy, but also because if I put bleach or some other type of toilet cleaner in, I'm not certain that a cat will still not drink it, so it's probably best to avoid them working out that it's a potential source of wter.
Actually, it is rocket science.

That is anathema to my guerrilla campaign against female rule (I have a wife and two daughters).

I have this problem with my cat :-X  Keeping the door/lid shut worked up until I acquired housemates, who seem to have less house training than the moggy.
