"It depends on the water.." Thistlestep glanced at her, noticing how her body seemed to tense. "If it's a river and the water is fast moving, avoid going in it. Those are rapids and the current is too strong for any cat to swim in it, and it'll kill you. Some waters.. they're usually the Twoleg ones, the ones by their plant fields, they look calm on the surface, but cats that go in get sucked in by hidden currents. And the ocean? Never safe to actually swim in it. Don't go beyond the shoreline. I lost my apprentice-- the fool she was, to the current when it pulled her in."
