the science of cat drinking - likely to blow minds

more evidence that cats are either totally insane or absolute geniuses:

"watching in slow motion reveals that cats of all sizes, from tabbies to tigers, have a very elaborate way of drinking. first, they move the tip of their tongue onto the surface of the water to flick the water up so that a little jet of liquid flies into the air. then, in a flash, they catch the jet in their mouth." 

of course.  why lap it up the normal way when you can be a water ninja?   it makes sense.  cats love to do things in their own way.  just like this guy.
