Encouraging Your Pet Cat to Drink Water


Water plays an essential role in a pet's overall health. It prevents dehydration and the development of various diseases. In cats, water intake is usually lower than the daily requirement. As such, you should encourage your cat to always drink water. There should be water bowls present in the different parts of the house accessible to your pet. Regularly clean and refill your cat’s water bowl with fresh water. A cat water fountain provides an excellent alternative to drinking from the water bowl. Wet pet foods available in the market are another beneficial source of water for cats, as they contain more than seventy-five percent water. Some pet owners feed their cats with kibble, but this only has less than twenty percent water which does not contribute much to the required daily water consumption of cats. Inform your veterinarian London, ON if you notice that your pet is drinking less than usual.
