I have an appointment with the vet next week but was just wondering if anyone could offer any helpful thoughts, tips and or advice? Thanks.
If she isn't drinking a lot try ice cubes. Whenever my girl doesn't drink much I give her and ice cube and put a couple in her water. She loves to play with them and gets plenty of water because she nods up drinking as she plays with the ones in her bowl.
