LOL! I hadn't connected the two -- licking and drinking -- but he didn't drink right for a long time and is still pretty sloppy. His water was in one of those cage bottles (like you get for hampsters) so when he would try to drink from a bowl, he wold 'bite' at the water and most of it went up his nose or on the floor! He doesn't snort or choke anymore, but still makes a heck of a mess when he drinks.
