That’s exactly how my boy is; he cry-meows so I keep the shower door open a bit! 😅🤣

u/Sudden-World-2304 Mar 16 '26

I have a shower stalker myself. Either he’s on the ledge between the shower curtains, or on my mini washing machine next to the tub. 💯. Every single time, without fail. My “Chuck Chuck,” Chuck Norris. Atleast he’s quiet about it though. Silent stress 🤷🏻‍♀️

u/frycrunch96 Mar 15 '26

Exactly 😭

u/Sudden-World-2304 Mar 16 '26

2,4, and 5 are absolutely precious 😭 poor baby. i had a cat that would get anxious while i was in a glass shower and he would paw at the glass to try and save me 🥺

also, your kitty is the epitome of :3

u/frycrunch96 Mar 15 '26

yes i love her so much. she looks like pennywise lol

u/Just-Chocolate85 Mar 15 '26

Most kitties don’t like showers or baths. They get so concerned that you would do something without them!

24

u/RedRixen83 Mar 15 '26

Can we…can we get an action video of those meows? She is legitimately freaking out and I really want the full experience of that cow cat having…a cow.

u/LveeD Mar 15 '26

Ever since he was little Miso sits there and stares at the running tap. And then sits and waits until I turn the water back on for him. Hates being wet but loves that tap!

She has a reverse moustache

u/Perfect_Outcome_5466 Mar 15 '26

My wacko gets into the shower. He loves drinking the water and doesn’t mind getting wet. In fact, he wakes up to eat at 5am and demands a shower right after breakfast

u/Dzx66 Mar 16 '26

SO ADORABLE 🥰 My cat is the same way! I no longer shower with her in the bathroom because she sees to stay calm if she’s outside the bathroom door while I’m showering, every time she’s accompanied me during a shower/bath she’s freaked out and panicked EXACTLY like your cat!

Btw your cat is soooo cute haha I love the adorable little teeth . The last pic looks like she’s saying “MOM I TRIED WARNING YOU THE ENTIRE TIME WHY DID YOU JUST STAY IN THERE WITH THE WATER?!” 🥰🥰🥰

u/ChicagoThinkTank Mar 16 '26

Chicago is actually hiring lifeguards. Idk if you’re close but see if they’ll qualify

u/lanebetta1999 Mar 17 '26

Her panic is what made my day special lmao. That face is so funny. Like she’s screaming at you lmao

2

u/Bad_Here Mar 17 '26

Mine is there with me as well when I am in the bath. Cats kinda love water. She could be just excited like mine does, she loves to watch the water go down the drain. When the water is gone she jumps into the tub!

u/FlakyLengthiness5325 Mar 17 '26

I’m sorry but. This is HILARIOUS.

u/craictoseintolerant Mar 17 '26

I had a childhood cat that would sit on the bathtub ledge and dip her sweet little tail in the water and keep me company. Absolute legend of a cat. We love you Gobnait!! ❤️

u/Comrade_Wolfissimo8 Mar 17 '26

Aww, I got a cat who will scream at me when I get out of the shower. Very long “mrrrrreowwewowooowwwwwrrrreeowww”s!!

My Tigger did the same thing every time I was in the shower the first couple years I had him. He’s 15 now he doesn’t care so much about the shower, but if I’m in the bathtub, he always gets up on the side and makes sure to splash around and drink my bathwater lol

My husband and I joke that when our cats act like this when we bathe or shower it’s because they think we are drowning ourselves because we are big stupid cats that are bad at being cats. 🫣🤣

u/NoDifficulty7846 Mar 19 '26

Cats often feel anxious when they can't see us i.e. the shower for instance. They will often meow loudly outside the shower. They feel protective of their guardians especially if you've really bonded with them and they follow you everywhere.
