Cat Not Drinking Enough? 6 Tips to Boost Hydration!
Cats naturally have a low thirst drive, which can lead to urinary tract issues. Here are practical solutions:
6 Hydration Hacks
Multiple Water Stations - Place bowls in different rooms (away from food and litter boxes)
Choose the Right Bowl - Use wide, ceramic, or glass bowls (avoid plastic odours)
Running Water Appeal - Try a pet water fountain (clean the filter regularly!)
Environmental Traps - Place "surprise water bowls" in spots your cat frequents (e.g., hallways/windowsills)
Taste Trick - Add low-sodium chicken/fish broth to water
Wet Food Boost - Consult your vet about adding wet food to their diet
⭐ Cats should drink at least 50ml/kg of water per day. Increasing water intake can reduce bladder and kidney diseases!
Daily Must-Dos
Wash and refill water bowls daily.
Observe your cat’s preferred drinking spots.
