"Cats are all individuals. Some cats like water. Some cats don't. In that way, they aren't so different from canines." - Wailani Sung, veterinary behaviorist.
"I think when we generalize like that, we do animals a disservice. We tend to think cats are this unique creature that doesn't like water, but there are many dogs that do not like water." - Carlo Siracusa, veterinary behaviorist.
"One key difference between the pet species might have contributed to the stereotype: pet cats tend to stay indoors, whereas dogs are more frequently brought out into the world and taken on adventures." - Wailani Sung.
"Cats have whiskerlike hairs all over their body that help them sense the world around them, and getting these hairs wet might disrupt how they perceive their environment." - Wailani Sung.
