I have recently acquired a cat, and now she drinks from a tall beer glass.

Tabitha had her stainless water dish. As all curious creatures would, she saw me and my partner drinking from tall glasses, so she started drinking from our glasses and would hiss at us should we try to take it away. Hearing her complaints, and on the grounds of egalitarianism and pan-species cooperation, I got my cat an beer glass and all was well.

Lately, she noticed that the magic was not in the glass but in it being elevated on a desk. Water somehow tastes better on top of a veneered IKEA table. As all unprincipled man would, I relented and gave more grounds so now my cat dines with us in high fashion.
