The sandpaper quality to their tongue lets cats get more water per unit area. Dogs lose a lot of water doing the ladle thing.

Plus the sandpaper tongue is really burrs on the tongue and help them groom their coats all day.

Cats are smart. :)

What I’ve never been able to figure out is how the cats manage to collect water in their mouths and keep lapping between swallows.

*lap*lap*lap*lap*lap*lap*lap*swallow*lap*lap*lap*lap*lap*lap*swallow*....

Martinis and straws are a recipe for disaster.

Right.. Because Darwin said cats and dogs have to drink the same way for all his observations to make sense?

I tried to take a photo of this falcon drinking, but I don't think he liked me photographing him drinking, so he gets to drink anyway he wants to drink. He usually lets a dove drink first. Then he eats the dove.

Falcons are carnivores?
