Vet reveals 8 reasons why your cat’s not drinking (and what to do about it)

Ginger cat drinking water from a tap.

If your cat’s not drinking, you’re bound to be worried. I’ve been working with pet parents for eight years as a vet, including some time in a cat-only practice, which means I’ve seen my fair share of cats with drinking problems. I know just how worrying our fur family can be when they aren’t behaving normally.

In this guide, I’m going to explain the reasons a cat might stop drinking. We’ll also cover cat hydration, and I’ll give you my top tips to help you keep your cats hydrated. (Hint: Using a pet water fountain can help!)
