"Jennifer and Jim kept getting huge water bills. They knew beyond a doubt that the bills weren't representative of their actual usage, and no matter how they tried to conserve, the high bills continued. Although they could see nothing wrong, they had everything checked for leaks or problems: first the water meter, then outdoor pipes, indoor pipes, underground pipes, faucets, toilets, washer, ice maker, etc. -- all to no avail. One day Jim was sick and stayed home in bed, but kept hearing water running downstairs. He finally tore himself from his sick bed to investigate, and stumbled onto the cause of such high water bills. Apparently this was happening all day long when they were not at home. Knowing that few would believe him, he taped a segment of the 'problem' for posterity" - Karen Padham Taylor from Bookmarklet

Hahaha! What a scream! - Anne Bouey

HAAAAAAAaaahahahahaha!!! I've got one cat that LOVES to watch the water go down the bowl: I'm screwed if he ever figures this trick out.... - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

No kitty! That's a bad kitty! - April Buchheit

that's GREAT!!! - Felicia Yue

Wait....now that i actually think about it, if the couple didn't know about this before the sick day, then that would imply the cat hid this behavior when the ppl were home. so if he knew enough to do that, then why is he still engaging in the behavior when someone is standing right there watching and videotaping him? - Felicia Yue

i'm totally overthinking this, aren't i? </brain flywheeling> - Felicia Yue

I actually wonder that, too, Felicia. - April Buchheit

Everybody knows a cat can't flush a toilet! - Gabe

Felicia++. But y'know, if they could have trained the cat to poop in the toilet and flush, it might have nearly been worth it... - Andrew C

I'm gonna go ahead and call shenanigans on this one. - Sloppy Lune

lol, I guess you guys have to keep the door closed all the time - Paul

Teach him to look over into the toilet just a little bit more...that should take care of your problem. - Ann Fantauzzi

Bad kitty. - Louis Gray
