      My cats always run across the tile floor to the carpet to puke.

      The other day I watched my cat drink an obscene amount of water, like 10 minutes straight of licking, then she went to the basement and puked it all up at the base of a cabinet.

      I had to empty the cabinet and move it to clean up the 99% water puke.

        My cats will be about to throw up, so I’ll slide a paper towel under them, and they will try to move to get back to the floor.

        They think the carpet is a nice soft soil with grass growing in it. In nature, a soft surface like that is full of bacteria that will break the puke down and prevent disease from spreading. Puke on a hard surface, and that mess isn’t going away for a long time.
