No worries.

Mongo, thanks for your answer - I hope you're right. I'd hate to have to deal with a scared cat and a broken sink. LOL

I agree with Mongo....no worries. Maybe you need to consider bigger basins....that would solve the kitty overflow :-)

Toto makes a model that's nearly 25" wide...

I wasn't convinced that the granite guys attached my undermount sink securely enough. To prove that they did, the 6'5", 250ish lb man tried his level best to pull it out from the bottom. The sink is still there :)

LOL, jamesk, I'm not spending money for a fancy sink just for my cats to nap in although they would probably thank me.

Monicakm, oh I'm so glad I wasn't the only one worried the sink was secure enough. Okay, I can relax now.

thanks, sky

Ok, I just had to post this, enjoy!

annkathryn, don't you just love that website Cats in sinks - LOL they are so cute. I should take a picture of my cats - although it would probably be posted not in cats in sinks, but cats sprawling over countertops because only the backend fits in the sink.

I have undermount sinks in my master bath and my cat has shown zero inclination to explore them. He does wander around the counter top though. And the heated floor is a definite attraction.

I have to laugh at those Cats in Sinks pictures tho - those silly cats really do look comfortable in those hard sinks!

I always thought my 15-lb Ragdoll was a big lug. I can't believe yours are 20lbs! They just have the best dispositions though, don't they-- he is so affectionate, more like a dog than a cat.

i had a maine coon cat once and she loved to sleep in the sink...i think it was nice and cool for her. i guess if you have two, you have to have the double sinks. but then what do the humans use? kren

Callieandkarin, yes my boys are big and DD#1 has a male and he's even larger. My girls are a little more petite in the 15 lb range. I love ragdolls, once you have them you can never go back. They are so dog like that they were more of a dog than my actual dog,. LOL They used to beat the dog in run and fetch the ball and she was annoyed to say the least. Of course she was elderly by then but she loved her cats. So gentle, affectionate, loyal and clever. Are your cats crazy about drinking water from the tap? The girls used to turn on the tap every day to help themselves to fresh water drips- I had to wrap towels and stuff around all my taps for a long time to break them of this "habit". they also are constantly going around the house and opening drawers - or maybe that's the resident ghost?

Kren pa - yes I think they do love the sink because it's cool. I have 4 cats - that's my limit - so sometimes they go into the bathtub or shower.
