Cats in Sinks

Cats in Sinks dot com. That's right, it's a website with lots of pictures of cats in sinks. Now I know a lot about my cat, I know where to poke him to make him stick his ass in the air (but have yet to find out how this knowledge may be of use to me), I know where to poke him to make him lick himself, I know how to get him to swallow a pill, I know how many items of junk I can pile on top of him before he will buck, I even know what his reaction would be if I were to put him in the bath and turn the shower on for a bit of a laugh. But I have no idea what his reaction would be if I were to just put him in the sink. Sure, I could extrapolate from the bath knowledge to determine that if I put him in the sink and turned the tap on he would go bat shit insane, but what if I just put him in the sink and took a picture of him? I suspect that he will immediately survey his surroundings and determine that there is nothing for him there, and jump out. But will he? How will I know? If only there was some way of finding out what his reaction would be if I were to pick him up and put him in the sink. And take a photo. Quite the quandary. What to do? What to do?

Aah, now I suspect that you are talking about the "lick button" which is a few inches up from the tail on the left hand side of a cat. Some people use this response in order to force a cat to open its mouth so you can force a pill down it, but for that I use a different method shown to me by the vet: if you grasps a cat's head by the cheekbones and pull it back so it is perpendicular to the back, the cat is unable to keep it's mouth shut for more the a couple of seconds. When the mouth opens, this gives you enough time to jam the pill down to the back of the throat where they will instinctively swallow it.
