What We've Been Up To
![Happy first day of Spring! [picture from Pinterest]](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/58d89806b8a79bb89e785002/5a201c6e51a584bb6d3933ee/5c92b9520f2659c2710c227e/1553119574624/)
![do you find your cat often dehydrated or not drinking enough water?
we’ve put together some tried and tested tricks for increasing your cats fluid intake... ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ - wet food is a great place to start. if your cat isn’t a fan of wet food, add water to the dry food!
- tuna juice, chicken juice, or broths are a great alternative to water... mmm, extra flavour!
- in the warmer months, freeze these flavoured broths and put the ice cubes in the wet food or in a water bowl.
- how many water bowls does your cat have? where is it located? try to place a water bowl away from the main feeding area, and more than one is always best. you don’t drink you water next to the toilet, do you... [or maybe you do, i won’t judge.]
- do you know what type of container is your cats favourite? do they prefer bowls, cups, or drips from the shower? maybe they even prefer to drink from puddles outside (gross, and also be careful).
- switch up the material of the water bowl. try glass or ceramic, metal or even a fancy fountain! plastic food and water bowls can retain flavour and bacteria (which can often cause skin issues). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀💧comment below if you’ve found any helpful ways to increase your cats water intake!! 💦](https://static1.squarespace.com/static/58d89806b8a79bb89e785002/5a201c6e51a584bb6d3933ee/5c720aadb30b6820b6246ab2/1550977715656/)
