Just When You Thought All Cats Hated Water...

Pow!

Very squee.

I really wanted them to pop the drain whilst kitty was still bathing, I bet she’d have gone nuts

Squee, indeed.

Apparently, there’s a breed of cats, the Turkish Van, who:

Originating in the Lake Van area of southeastern Turkey, these cats… are much loved and prized by the Turks for their exceptional character and unique colouring. Apart from their great capacity for affection and alert intelligence, **their outstanding characteristic is their liking for water, not normally regarded as a feline attribute. They not only dabble in water and play with it, but have been known to enter ponds and even horse-troughs for a swim **– they soon became famous as the ‘swimming cats.’

A lot of Bengals love water, too. My daughter’s Bengal loved paddling around in the bathtub when there was a bit of water in it.
