I think they like it (to look at, play with, drink) but don't like being submerged in it.
(Nothing funnier though than a just-washed cat.)

Most cats don't like to get wet, but you put a weaned kitten in the swimming pool & watch it swim like a pro! Some wild cats, such as the Jaguar, love water & spend a lot of time in it. I suprised a pair of Bobcats on a ranch in Ks yrs ago & they jumped into the river - a lg creek, actually - & swam across.

All of my cats seem to hate water but I have known some people who say their cats love it. I think it is mostly a myth.

I have cats that love water, too, but none have willingly gone for a bath, unlike dogs and other animals. I think that's what is meant by "cats hate water". I'd reword it as "cats don't love swimming".

A complete myth.
They DON'T like water on their feet or the feel in the fur lots of times, but they don't hate it. Lots of cats will walk in the rain or sit in the shower when it's on.

Well, if you have ever given a cat a bath, you will understand why people think that.
Some cats play with water, but it has to be something they want to do - not something you want them to do.
Dogs are not so different in that respect.

I think that it a myth too, some cats like water and some don't. you can train a cat to like water when it is a kitten.

Ours did...when my daughter was young she attempted to take the cat into the shower with her, he scratched her to bits before climbing the shower curtain, balancing on the rod and yowling his head off!

Some cats love water and some do not. It is their choice.
