Well there goes my "three paw rule" theory. My little girl will immerse the whole front of her body in water as long as one hind leg is touching dry ground. If she gets excited going after a toy and forgets and gets the fourth paw in then she turns into a regular cat again... OMG WATER! I'M WET!! lol Little guy wants nothing to do with it at all, in fact with all the splashing he likes to watch from a distance.

Where did you get that pool?? Been searching all the stores for a small one and have only found huge ones too big for my porch.

I got it at Fred Meyer. Try Toys R Us or one of the big box stores. I couldn't find a smaller one this year either.

Remember, that's a North American Spotted Moose (NASM) you're seeing there. That pool is bigger than it appears!

Forgot to mention that the pool is 43" across.

The smallest ones I could find were 64" and 84" with slides Although the slide might be kinda funny. 43" would be great! I have seen the smaller ones online but none of the stores have them in stock so I may have to order it.

How fun! I'll have to get one of those for my guys.

Similar and reasonably priced (kitty) pool.

Thanks NikkiA!

So besides ping pong balls and wiffle golf balls, what are some fun water toys? Robo fish didn't work out well as she keeps biting the tail off before I can even get it away from her. Found some kiddie diving toy octopus but she bit the tentacles off. Little barracuda. She prefers things that sink that she has to work for.

Ziggy likes to retrieve the sinking pool rings that stand up on the bottom, like these: INTEX Underwater Swimming/Diving Pool Toy Rings - (2 Pack) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00D0UAZHA/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_v7pEvb238WDBH. No, he doesn't dive, he just tolerates getting his front legs wet...

Thanks Chris, I will definitely get those!
