Bigmaya, What a lovely response. Praying for you & your husband this a.m. I have a question as it sounds like you have had a long life with cats. Mine will simply not drink
water. He is on prescription Royal Canin canned food for his bladder and it has gravy in it, so I add the hydracare from Purina as well. Any suggestions to get him to drink water? Thank you precious lady! Hugs & Prayers...."People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care". -author unknown

My cat drinks some water every day, but his favorite is a bit of milk.

My Missy doesn't drink much water and it makes her constipated, so when I give her wet food twice a day she gets it in a bowl with some psyllium husk and a lot of hot water (I call it 'soup'). She hates getting a mouthful of husks so I have to mash and mix it well. Her preferences vary, so I put out options and usually she goes for one or another -- tap water in one corner of the kitchen, filtered water at the base of her tree, bottled water beside her kibble dish. She always likes things clean, so I do a lot of that. Also, she seems to like the smaller containers ... might be so she doesn't have to put much effort into keeping her whiskers dry.
