It depends what you're feeding him. If a cat is on wet food (meat or pate) then they will tend to drink very little as the water content in their food is very high. If they are on dry cat food then some cats may drink more as they need to subsitute the water they are missing out on from the dry food. However, many cats will not drink enough water while on dry food. Some cats may drink as little as 50% of their water intake.

Two ways that help cats drink more is to leave a tap on, or purchase a pet water fountain. Many cats are fickle when it comes to water and will only drink fresh moving water. A running tap or fountain keeps water constantly moving and fresh, and both methods are very successful in enticing a cat to drink more water.

Always make fresh water available no matter what food they are on.

Can cats drink water?

Yes, sometimes cats will drink water. However, a cat has evolved to derive water from its prey/food, so will not often drink from a bowl unless very dehydrated.
