Cats (and dogs) are weirdos. Furry little weirdos.

Honestly a bit worried about her health with mould and any residual detergent (especially on occasions of using tea tree shampoo) but cats gonna cat

Edit: I did previously buy her a cheapie water fountain but she ignored it

My dog has cleaned up the shower floor for us forever. Apart from deadly farts when she eats bread crusts, she's happy and healthy. I do make sure the door stays shut after cleaning, until someone showers next, just in case. And we have 5 water bowls inside, two outside and a fountain.

Ahh, a closed door wouldn't stand... one of her litterboxes is in there. Squeegees aren't good on tiles but I'll consider getting better about wiping the shower dry afterwards with the towel, using any medicated shampoos over the sink when needed and (while unhygienic) adding a third water bowl in the bathroom.
