THE SWIMMING BOAT-CAT! ⚓️🐈💦. That dive in though….🤣🤣🤣 Our sailor-cat Ronnie loves his independence and spends a couple hours off the boat and on the beach each day…returning either by paddleboard ‘taxi’ or - like this - in his own special way 😂 People say cats don’t like water…well it just goes to show that you can’t believe what people say and that we’re all unique & adaptable!
