Good Morning and PING this one over to Slings and Arrows! :)=^..^=
Dogs have a noisier method of lapping (they scoop) but a dog moves more liquid per second than would a comparably sized cat. Maybe it’s in cats’ interest to be quieter given the stealthy way that they hunt.
I sure am glad to find this out, I was really worried about how cat’s drink.
4 engineers with not a hell of a lot to do.
My cat drinks from the kitchen faucet. I guess her tongue doesn’t work the way the scientists discovered. It’s better, I suppose, than drinking from the toilet.
This is extremely good information!

Cats are sneaky. Are we sure they didn’t set up these engineers? How many cats participated?
The New York Times continues to bring us news of great importance!
Wonder what’s really going on.
Two of our cats, who have since gone to kitty heaven, would jump on the toilet seat, straddle it, lower their head and drink the toilet water. We had a very long and slinky Siamese cat that could put his front paws on the toilet seat and reach his head in to drink the water. That one wouldn’t drink from his water bowl. We think he wanted the water to be cold.
One of the above would also drink water from a running faucet.
Cats are so weird. If I put lotion on my legs, one of our cats would methodically lick the lotion off if I would permit it. That’s a very weird feeling - like sandpaper rubbing over your leg.
