The (mis-named) Monster (because he's really a gentle and good kitty), is not the world's most intelligent cat. He's a biggish creature, and not overly graceful. He's been known to fall off chairs and run into walls. He has a wimpy meow and a wonderful purr. (He purrs me to sleep some nights. I really like that part.)
Monster is a cat of simple pleasures. He takes special pleasure in boxes. Shortly after you set a box on the floor, he will find it and climb in. Then he just sits and looks at us with a very satisfied look on his face. Box!
Well, Monster has decided the sink is a Box. Even better, it's a Box with Water! (He loved our drippy bathtub before we tore it out.) If he is in the sink, he is NOT on the counter, he is in a Box. and he is allowed to sit in Boxes. And, he doesn't even really barely even have to pause on the counter to get to this newfound mini-heaven. Surely, it's OK to sit in this wonderful Box with Water!
I'm afraid I'm losing this battle. What does it really hurt if the cat sits in the empty sink? (I mean, Box?)
We only mind because it makes us think that other people will think that we are crazy cat people. It's a sink, not an operating room. Our feline friends ask so little and give such sustenance. Give him the Box with Water gladly.
