Getting my cat to drink more water...

Hi I'm kinda desperate and looking for new ideas on how to get my cat to drink more water. He had UTI a few weeks ago and I know he will have more issues unless he keeps drinking water.

If it gets bigger or anything, then she would do a biopsy and remove it. No ointment or antibiotics were given, the vet did not think she wou...

I took my cat to the vet recently for a small bump on her lower eyelash area. The vet believes it is a blocked follicle and recommended that I put a warm compress on her eye for a week. If it does not go away, we will have it removed. Well my cat is not having it. I can barely keep the compress on h...
