Well. That was completely unnecessary.

All of a sudden just now I heard rushing water upstairs. Dashed up there to find two completely fuzzed-up cats and the bathtub faucet running full blast. No, I don't know how they managed it. I'm sure glad they didn't do it while I was in Texas, though, and I suspect the next time I'm gone overnight I'll be shutting the bathroom door.

Reach up to the faucet, especially if it's a single lever or multiple radii instead of round. Put one or both forepaws on the end of one of those levers. Push down, or try to climb up that way.

Then jump back in horror. Great Bast, you almost fell in and got WET!!!

It is a single lever, and, worse, one pushes down on it to turn the water on, not lift it up.

Actually, I'm surprised that a) Teddy wasn't romping in the water instead of being horrified of it (he loves water, so it must have been the surprise factor) and b) that it hasn't happened before.
