A white cat in Japan's Yamaguchi Prefecture prefers to drink water while standing upright, amazing many.
According to a report by Kyodo News on August 4th, a white cat in Japan has attracted the attention of local residents due to its habit of drinking river water while standing upright. The cat is named "Mokkun" and is kept by Ishimura Takashige, a 67-year-old dance teacher from Higashi Ward in Tokuyama City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. Mokkun has gained fame locally for its majestic posture while drinking water while standing up. Mokkun can stand up on its hind legs, place its front paws on the watering can, and gently sip water from the spout.
The nearly 8-year-old male white cat Mokkun is a mixed breed. During the scorching summer, it sometimes drinks water continuously for almost a minute. Some people even stop to take pictures because of its amusing posture of drinking water while standing upright.
About three years ago, whenever Ishimura watered the plants, Mokkun would come over. If the spout of the watering can is pointed at it, it will stand up to drink water.
The water splashes all over Mokkun's face, making it wet. Ishimura smiles and says, "Even though it dislikes rainy days, it enjoys gulping down water from the watering can."
