can they jump?

fabcat

Got a new kitten last night, shes tiny, left her at home today, just realised the bathroom door is open and the toilet seat is up. Do you think she could jump in and drown? I've just took a poll in work and they all said no, well, one said hopefully, but I'm really worried, what does everyone else think?

petes

How old is it?

Splinter

ehhhhhhh i dont wanna guess at this...poor kitten...is the bathroom upstairs? can the kitten climb the stairs yet? if so then maybe ya should worry...

fuzzywiggle

Even if she could jump that high, I doubt that would happen. Don't worry

GerryRyan

Stranger things have happened. Keep us posted anyway

She'll be grand as long as she is under 8 weeks, even at that i dont think she'd drown - get a fright but not drown. acn you get someone to call in on her?

KTRIC

If she's only a kitten , say 8 weeks then she might not even be able to climb the stairs let alone jump into the toilet bowl.

Mine couldn't climb the stairs for the first coulpe of months and even now (a year later) they have no interest in the toilet.

in the sitting room under the couch ...Im sure you Kitten will be fine

fabcat

When you go home, if it still alive.... Chuck it into the toilet for a minute or two. With luck you'll kill it & if not it will learn not to go into the toilet

Your mother should have done that to you.

Heh, wander over to the animals / pet issues forum - plenty cat bashing going on. Yes, I took part, but feeling guilty now.

Test it.

Because it is. & I hate cats!!!!

heres an idea... put down the toilet seat?

BTW, if you did find it dead in the toilet... would you attempt to flush it?

Also, not trying to go OT, but I agree with EOA_Mushy, I hate cats. They are the only animals on the planet that kill for fun. I watched one out my window the other day creep up on a bird, pounce on it, knock it around a bit, then let it go, only to wait as it limped off, then pounce on it again.

In australia, Cats are so prolific and ferrel that they are allowed to kill them like rats.

I'm afraid I'll have to put in the obligitory "Humans kill for fun too!" post.

All the cat haters are just jealous

If you could sleep for 18 hours a day, lick your privates and kill anything that took your fancy you'd all change your tune pretty quickly.

I think domestic cats have it pretty easy as pets go and I would happily change place with one at the drop of a hat.

Not true. My German Shepherd kills rats & birds for fun. She slaps them around with her paws for a while then she tosses them into the air until she kills them.

OP, doubt the kitty will make it into the bowl. Just be careful next time.;)

I'm not jealous, I can do all of these things. Well, okay, not the middle one, but I have a sponge on a stick and a bowl of my own spittle for that. Life is goooood.

Your cat wont be long trying to get out if she does fall in or something, cats (well mine anway) hate water! If you happen to see her in the bathroom, run the tap in the bath or sink, so she will know its not a place for her to go. Good luck.

marius

I work in a veteniary clinic and I can tell you that your Kitten is almost certainly dead.

Archeron

I work in a psychic hotline, and I can tell you your cats NOT dead.
And that yoghurt in your fridge doesnt look gone off, but it is.
And pick up some milk on the way home, you're almost out.
