Meet Cezanne, an extraordinary black cat whose peculiar fascination with running water has evolved into one of the most endearing and unusual habits his human family has ever witnessed.

This isn’t your typical tale of a cat who merely follows their owner to the bathroom – Cezanne has quite literally taken his water obsession to new heights.

From the moment he joined his forever home as a tiny black kitten, along with his siblings, Cezanne showed signs of being anything but ordinary.

He engaged in typical kitten adventures – chasing toys across the floor, attempting to catch digital butterflies fluttering across tablet screens, and creating chaos with his energetic zooming through the house.

However, as Cezanne grew, his family began noticing something rather unique about his personality – his intense fascination with running water.

This wasn’t just a casual interest; when thirsty, Cezanne would deliberately hop into the sink, waiting expectantly for someone to turn on the faucet. Once the water began flowing, he would drink with unmistakable enthusiasm.

His dedication to this habit eventually earned him a special gift: an automatic faucet, which he quickly learned to operate independently, giving him the power to summon his beloved running water whenever he desired.

This bold move marked the beginning of a new ritual. Now, Cezanne serves as Thiago’s faithful shower companion, waiting patiently on the edge of the shower before making his calculated leap onto his human’s head as soon as the water starts running.

In Cezanne’s world, who needs conventional water fountains when you can have your own elevated water experience?

Today, Cezanne shares his home with his humans and four furry siblings, maintaining both his playful kitten-like demeanor and his unwavering devotion to running water.
