What to do if your cat does not drink water

drinking water

We start from the basis that cats are very fond of water, that is, the container where they drink has to be completely clean and crystal clear and you have to change the water every day. Still, there are cats who are not very into drinking water and it is essential for their health. A cat has to drink water daily to avoid urinary tract problems.

If you notice that your cat is little to drink water, apply these methods to encourage him to do so. Cats apart from having clean water, if you you put more containers around the house you will encourage him to drink more. One in the kitchen, another in the living room and another where he usually spends time. As they are so curious simply because they have water around the house, they will love to taste and especially to drink.

Surely you have noticed that if you open the tap in the kitchen or bathroom and walk around the pussy will try to drink at all, cats love to drink when the water is constantly falling because they don't like stagnant water very much. You can try putting a cat fountain in it that has the water constantly in motion.

Another option is to buy canned food, this is usually more humid than the feed. Dry feed has hardly any water, unlike wet feed that has 70% water, just like homemade food.

Do not forget that cats in their origins they didn't drink much water because they obtained it from the food they hunted, hence it is still difficult for them to get used to drinking daily, unless we include wet foods like their ancestors.
