"I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but your cat is not drinking enough water. An easy way to remedy this is by getting a pet water fountain. They require a bit more maintenance; you'll need to take it apart, clean regularly, and change filters monthly, but this is well worth it for the health benefits. The majority of cats are chronically dehydrated."
"This high-tech automatic fountain can be either plugged in or cordless battery-powered, so you have the freedom to move it around the house, and it lasts a whopping 83 days on the battery. The drinking bowl is made of stainless steel, which is a must-have with pet fountains, as it's more hygienic and reduces the chance of harboring harmful bacteria."
Most cats are chronically dehydrated, which can lead to serious health problems such as potentially lethal urinary tract infections. Cats perceive stagnant water as potentially harmful and are more naturally drawn to moving water, so a pet fountain encourages increased drinking by emulating running water. Pet fountains require regular maintenance including disassembly, cleaning, and monthly filter changes. The Petkit Eversweet Max operates plugged in or cordless with up to 83 days of battery life, uses a stainless-steel drinking bowl for hygiene, and includes an app that logs drinking events, tracks filter replacements, and records water refills. The app can help detect changes in drinking habits and flag potential issues for veterinary attention. The unit is generally on the pricier end, though promotional discounts can reduce the cost.
