THAT'S NOT A CAT!

Some cats have a strong inbuilt preference to drink from running water.

Lol, at this point that is just fitness.

If you have not already done it and can afford it, I'd suggest you buy a running drinking fountain for him. Many cats prefer running water and, if that need is fulfilled, your cat may be less frustrated by the closed faucet / you may be able to reopen it.
