Should You Give Your Cat Tap Or Filtered Water?

Cats are known for having a low thirst drive. This, coupled with their being ultra sensitive sense of smell and taste can make them fussy or picky about their water intake. As a result, many cats suffer from long-term low-grade dehydration. And this can have serious effects down the road. 

Cats won’t drink if they have particular issues about their water. The taste, odor, and even the water bowl can have a big say in whether a cat will drink their water or not. The presence of chemicals and/or chemicals in water can affect how a cat perceives his drinking water. To lessen these issues, your best option would be to give your cat water from the tap that has been filtered. You can just attach a simple filter to your faucet to remove odors and tastes that you cat may find undesirable. 

Sudden changes in your pet’s water intake or drinking habits should be brought to the attention of your pet clinic New Orleans, LA.
