Cats dislike water and avoid it whenever possible. It's their Weaksauce Weakness. As far as Truth in Television goes, your kitties may vary; many actually do like water at least to some degree. In addition to certain breeds of domestic felines and quite a few moggies, many "big cats" (most notably tigers and jaguars, which tend to live in tropical rainforests with plenty of rivers and lakes) and "small cats" enjoy swimming. But we don't recommend giving your pet cat a bath without expert supervision, as for many cats this is largely Truth in Television... A general rule of thumb Most cats don't inherently hate water; they just hate getting soaked against their own will. Cats who overcame the fear of water (mostly when they're kittens) are considered literal Cowardly Lions at best. If by anything, don't be surprised to see a cat version of Toilet-Drinking Dog Gag. Compare to Hates Baths. |

In Genshin Impact, if Diona is your active character when it starts raining, she'll comment that she doesn't like rain and suggests going somewhere else, but insists that she's not scared and just doesn't like her clothes getting wet. However, she won't object to you making her swim. | |

Nature Cat avoids water at all costs and panics whenever he gets splashed, though he occasionally builds up enough strength to ride in boats. Is brought to a head in "Tide Pool Tough", where the entire plot is his determination to get over his fear of water in order to try surfing. | |

The Aristocats: While on their way back to Paris, Duchess, Thomas O'Malley and the kittens all walk onto a railroad track, but when a train comes, the cats all duck underneath the rails, but in the process Marie falls into a nearby river and she cannot swim. O'Malley jumps into the water and gets Marie back to shore, but then it turns out that O'Malley also cannot swim as well. As a result he had to rely entirely on a pair of geese in order for him to get out of the water. | |

O'Malley jumps into the water and gets Marie back to shore, but then it turns out that O'Malley also cannot swim as well. As a result he had to rely entirely on a pair of geese in order for him to get out of the water. The Lion King: Simba has grown to love water because he grew up in an oasis, but that doesn't mean that Nala does, as shown by her absolutely horrified expression when Simba playfully pulls her into water during "Can You Feel The Love Tonight?" In Cinderella, Lady Tremaine the Wicked Stepmother lists chores for Cinderella to do and her mean cat Lucifer nods along after each one, but when she gets to "And don't forget to give Lucifer his bath" he shakes his head and glares at her instead. |

The Looney Tunes short film, "Fin 'N Catty", features a cat trying to eat a goldfish despite his obsessive-compulsive fear of water (even one drop makes him run to get a paper towel and dry off furiously). After being trapped in a flooded shower stall, he not only overcomes his fear, but he also starts sleeping inside the goldfish's fishbowl, much to the fish's disdain because he has to live in a glass now. | |

Garfield: Played with in one strip. Garfield spends most of the strip playing in a sprinkler. Then Jon announces it's bath time and Garfield bolts away. The very first strip involving Garfield and baths demonstrates the proper equipment one should use to bathe a cat who has not been declawed — chain mail, steel gauntlets, and a football helmet. Another strip involves a massive pile of equipment that includes brass knuckles and a small straight-jacket. In a 1983 strip, Garfield justifies hating baths by stating that "Bathing robs cats of precious natural oils that protect us from skin disease." |

Kittisaurus: Somewhat averted with Coco, Chuchu and Nana, who tolerate baths very well and let Claire clean them. Zig-zagged with DD, who sometimes tolerates baths but sometimes wriggles and protests. Downplayed for Lulu and Momo, who tend to wriggle a lot when being given baths. Then there are TT, Lala and Dodo who will meow and protest every time Claire baths them. In Dodo's case, she hasn't even given him a full bath because he became so distressed with a practice bath (where he only got a little wet), the normally tough TT and Lala felt sorry for him. | |

Puppy Dog Pals: Hissy is NOT a fan of water and hates getting wet. However in the Season 5 episode "Riding in Ice Cream Trucks with Pups", after getting splashed by Leo, she stated that it feels good on her. At the end of the same episode, she joins with the other pets in the pool stating that cats like to get cooled off. Leo the kitten at first wasn't a fan of water either. In "Family Pet Picture Day", he naturally struggled with the idea of cleaning himself up for the family picture since the tub was filled with water. |

Steven Universe: In "Cat Fingers", Steven tries to learn how to shape-shift, but has very little control over this power and his body becomes covered in cat creatures. When his dad sprays him with a hose, Steven figures out that the cat heads hate water and will disappear when exposed to enough of it, and they end up having to run Steven through the car wash to get rid of all the cats. This later receives a Call-Back in "Too Short To Ride" when Steven demonstrates his shape-shifting by turning his finger into a cat, and then immediately dunks it into the ocean to turn it back to normal. | |

In Girl Genius, Krosp takes the controls of their falling airship and totals it, crashing it into a hill, to avoid landing in the lake, since then he'd get wet. And that's nothing to his reaction to the sewers under Sturmhalten. Of course, having spent all his life on the Castle Wulfenbach, he didn't know what a sewer was when he went down there... Well, what really bothered him about the sewer was when he fell in — and then a Jaeger suggested he could lick himself clean.... | |

Littlest Pet Shop: A World of Our Own: Feline main character Jade is noted as an oddball cat for two reasons: she cannot land on her feet, and she actually enjoys swimming. The latter gets her back the respect she lost for the former. The "Scratch Tree Society" is a secret society of cats who plant trees around Pawtucket. When Bev (a turtle) wants to join, they happily give her a tour, including their pool, which no one has ever used. They can't even remember why they installed a pool in the first place. After Bev manages to get admitted, she tries to get the other members to try swimming. They're still not interested. |

Atomic Betty: This is the case for Maximus I.Q., the cat-like Big Bad. He can't swim and hates water, almost to the point of it being an Achilles' Heel for him. | |

In Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey, Sassy the cat get separated from Shadow and Chance because she goes to look for a way to cross the river without getting wet, including walking over an old log over fast moving river rapids. The log breaks, dumping Sassy into the river, which results in her getting swept over an Inevitable Waterfall. | |

She-Ra and the Princesses of Power: Catra (who in this version is a Cat Girl instead of a shapeshifting human) is shown to be less than thrilled about having to get on a boat, and she is also uncomfortable with snow (which is wet and cold). It's later played for laughs in Season 5, when it's revealed that the Crazy-Prepared Netossa's plan for dealing with Catra as an enemy would have been spritzing her in the face with a squirt bottle, then restraining her with an energy net when she freaked out. | |

Pokémon: The Series: Meowth hates water, especially wet water! However, he's fine with hot springs, and one relatively obscure Pokemon Sunday ending theme showed him having fun surfing, so maybe he just hates water under certain circumstances. Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon: Ash's Litten/Torracat isn't a fan of the water, which would be justified by its Fire type nature if Lycanroc (a Rock type with a similar weakness) didn't love being bathed. It decides to follow Tsareena's example at a pool and take a nap instead. Pokémon Horizons: The Series: Liko's Sprigatito hates being splashed with water, even if it's just a little bit, despite the fact its a Grass-Type and thus should fare better with water than Litten or even Meowth. |

Tailchaser's Song: Cats even have a "Just So" Story describing why cats hate swimming. Lord Firefoot (one of the first cats created) tricked a shark into taking him across the ocean. He then land-locked the shark on shore and proceeded to eat it. Since then, cats have avoided water and they only eat fish they can catch without getting wet. | |

In Fruits Basket's Beach Arc, Kyo (the Cat) doesn't intend to swim, until Haru baits him into a contest with Yuki. He's actually not that bad a swimmer, and he certainly doesn't hate it as much as leeks. | |

Warrior Cats: The cats from ThunderClan, ShadowClan, and WindClan don't particularly like water, but they will go in the water if they have to. By contrast, RiverClan loves the water, and regularly goes swimming and fishing. Although they don't like involuntary exposure, such as being rained on, any more than the other Clans. Even amongst RiverClan, some cats still dislike water. They're called "drypaws". Leopardstar was one such cat as an apprentice. |

The Lion Guard: In the pilot episode, Kion is splashed twice in the space of a few minutes, first by Bunga and then by Beshte. Although he casually shrugs it off the first time, it's still clear that he does not enjoy being wet. However, in the second last episode, he has no problem pulling his girlfriend Rani through a waterfall for a swim during their love song. Fuli also dislikes it, jumping across the river just to stay dry and when Mtoto soaks her in water by accident, she is visibly annoyed. Subverted later with a young serval who likes swimming with Bunga. |

The first arc of The Suburban Jungle had a mouse trying to escape Tiffany Tiger by running into a lake, thinking she'd be scared of water like most cats, only for her to jump in after him. Being a Siberian tiger, Tiffany also loves snow, much to Leonard Lion's annoyance. | |
