People are always going on about how cunning and clever cats are. Sometimes we forget that they, like us, are more than capable of being a bit of a goofball from time to time, and when it does happen, their dramatic personalities make it all the funnier!

We here at Bored Panda have put together a list of cats who temporarily forgot how to cat. When they stopped being the sleek, graceful hunters that they usually are, and ended up looking hilariously stupid. Don't worry though, all these cats are just fine, and suffered nothing more than a bruised ego. It probably even did them a little good!

Scroll down to check them out for yourself, and let us know what you think in the comments!

A friend of mine had to leave the bathroom tap running slightly all the time as her cat would ONLY drink from the bath tap.

My Xwife had a cat that the only way she would drink was out of a running faucet so they always had to leave one on.

Oh my gosh, my Freya kitty used to sit between the refrigerator and the wall, facing the wall just like this. Then, after a bit, she would fly out, skid across the kitchen floor, race through the living room, into my bedroom, under the bed, back across the top of the bed, fly back into the kitchen, and resume her sitting in the corner position. Did it all of her 17 years of life. God, I miss that crazy cat.
