Hi,

My two-year old, Kasey, doesn't drink that much water either. I give her Artemis dried food, mixed with a little parmesan cheese and boiled chicken twice a day -- and each time, I add enough water to the bowl to make it just a little bit like soup, then mix it up. She laps the water mixture up before she even eats, and I feel better because I know she's getting her water.

(By the way, when she had a bout with diarrhea a week or two ago, the vet suggested I give her unflavored Pedialyte (like they give babies, from the drugstore) and mix a little bit of low fat chicken broth with it. That combo rehydrated her, and she seemed to love the taste. In case you ever need it....)

Hope this helps!

Kim
