You can, yes. You can also try mixing some Kitten Milk Replacer (KMR) in with the water to try and entice the kitten to drink more.
can a 6 week old kitten drink powered milk mixed with water. the powered milk was bought at a pet shop
You don't need to. When the kitten is old enough to drink water, it will drink without being trained. Note: This may work for some cats but not introducing your kitten to water at a young age may mean that it will always fear it and will never drink it. Cats have a great risk of being affected by urine problems and the natural prevention of this is to drink water regularly. Here's a list of things to try to get your kitten to drink water:- 1. Change water regularly and some cats prefer plastic or metal pots. The material can affect the taste of the water. 2. If they won't drink from a tub/pot try a dripping tap, the cat will paw it and lick it off then eventually drink it. 3. Add a little marmite to water to add interest, then eventually stop once the kitten is used to the water. 4. Never throw water over a cat unless the cat really likes water (some do), it will be scared of water for life. 5. As a last resort try a water fountain cats can really love them especially if you have more than one cat. Good luck!
A lot. Make sure your kitty has a fresh supply of water 24 hours a day.
A cat can ingest worms through their water supply and become infected.
get him a bowl that he cant tip or move, these are usually made for dogs but what the hell, it worked for my cat
Maybe that cat is not hungry or maybe that cat is not in a mood.
the kitten is in the farm house on the right, go upstairs and click on the hot water knob in the bathtub and the cat will jump out.
Drink lots of water
Good question. All of my cats drink from my toilets and when I had house dogs, they did too. It may be because the water is fresher from being flushed. I have always wondered the same thing.
I am sure I could feed my kitten wet food because wet food can help with hairballs and can be a good source of water especially because most cats don't drink a lot of water. My kitten is a Maine coon and has a ton of fur so wet food can help him digest hairballs.
If the tap water in your area is pure enough for you to drink, then yes, it's fine for your cat. Otherwise, give the cat filtered water from a Brita pitcher, or similar water filtration system.
