My male doesn't mark but he still drinks significantly more water than my female. I had a blood panel run on him and everything was normal, so I don't worry too much about it. Several people I have talked to who have a male and a female say that their male drinks more water than their female, too.

In your case, I would definately take him to the vet and get blood work run just to be safe. But, if nothing shows up, don't panic. It is probably just him being a male.
Thats interesting. I never thought about it before but it does seem Chachi drinks more water than Jewels
