I took my cat Yoda into the pool with me many times. He would yeowl for me when I went in without him, so I brought him in, then he promptly swam out when I let him go. We did this almost every evening one summer. If he really hated to swim, he didn’t have to follow me to the pool. He much preferred to go for car rides.

I have always understood that cats could swim. Cats die in pools because they cannot climb out and become exhausted.

There are some cats that take naturally to the water. Maine Coons, I’m told, love the water. My Bombay is fascinated by it. Any time we turn on a faucet he’s right there with his nose in it. And, as the pictures above indicate, some big cats love to swim.

In all my years of owning cats I’ve only had one cat that absolutely craved the water. Sadie. And you couldn’t keep her out of the bathroom sink! She’d bat at the water as it came out of the faucet, she’d sleep in the sink and wait for you to turn on her ‘toy’ again! And if she got wet, she loved it! Odd one. Never took her swimming though.

Yay for watur wingz kitty! Tis a far, far better thing to practice swimming than it is to sink.

Turkish Van Cats do like water. Most cats hate the thought of a bath and put up with it grudgingly because they know its over soon.
