Drinking My 3 month old female doesn't like to drink water. She isn't thrilled about drinking anything. Any suggestions?:confused: |
Is it she doesn't want to get wet? Have you tried a water bottle? You could put a little sugar in the water. |
Thank you. I've been using a sryinge. She doesn't like it until she swallows the first little bit and then it goes much better but I will try the bottle idea. Is this normal? |
hi. i don't know if it is normal or not.. but layla doesn't drink a whole lot either.... somedays nothing.. but she still pees... so i'm not terribly worried and she has been like this since we got her... |
Thanks. We've had her 16 days and she eats fine and seems happy enough so I will just take it she isn't a water gal. She pees plenty. Lol, 2 inches off the pad. |
lol... well at least she is NEAR the pad... lol.... i wouldn't worry unless she starts to get lethargic... if you are worried anyways... go buy some pedialite and use a dropper and just squirt some in her mouth... that way she is at least being hydrated with something that has the electrolytes she needs.. but i htink she is ok... like i said.. on a good day layla drinks... i can't figure it out.. and pees like she has been drinking all day |
Does she get a lot of canned/wet food? With the higher moisture content in wet foods they don't need to drink as much. |

im having the same problem with my 8 week old he eats great but doesnt like the water they told me ice chips! |
As long as she is peeing and pooping regularly I would not worry. If you are feeding her food with a high moisture content then she is getting enough fluids. |
