When we get any ice cubes out of the freezer, he'll go and sit by the water bowl until we give him some. Then he'll sit there and stare until they've melted... Not sure what's so mesmerizing but he loves them.
We have a sphynx and he goes nuts when we use the ice machine on the fridge. Sadly the automatic suspensor broke so I have to fix so that Jax can enjoy that event again
He perches above the ice cubes as they quietly screetch for release of this pain. The water sucking the very form and life from the cubes and coaxing it into uniformity. Splendid!
Typical cat stuff basically. Also I do wonder if the sounds of the cubes melting is the fun part
