It could be the cat is getting enough water from his food if being fed canned or pouched food.
Cats are notoriously bad drinkers, even when they are thirsty. This is because they have evolved to get all their needed moisture from their prey (their ancestors were cats that lived in very dry and arid environments where water was hard to come by). It is a trait that has been passed down over the thousands of years.
There are several things you can do to increase how much water your cat is intaking. By far the easiest option is to feed a wet food diet. Canned or pouched food has anywhere between 60 to 80% water. Seeing as in the wild a cat's prey is around 70% water, wet food provides a cat with more than enough water each day.
If you feed dry food, it may be ideal to and incorporate at least some wet food into the cat's diet each day, so your kitten gets at least some water.
Another way to increase water intake 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.
If your cat is male, it is especially vital to make sure he is thoroughly hydrated. Male cats are much more susceptible to urinary tract infections (UTI's) which is often caused by not enough water over a period of time.
Not very harmful, but a little disgusting!
It wouldn't be exactly dangerous to have a cat and a fish at the same time, but there are some risks. If the fish is in a tank or bowl that has no top, the cat may try to stick it's paw in and "get" or possibly eat. Since cat's are playful animals and they have instincts of their relatives, the cat may consider the fish as prey. Unless there is a top on a fish tank or bowl, or if you put the bowl out of reach of the cat, the fish should be safe.If you have any further questions on this topic, please let me know.(If you are unsure of my username, it is bluecow847)
You will not be able to move the bowl because it is too heavy.
They get sick and you better take it to a vet or it might die.
Aldis, supermarket. I love that advert.
The bathtub is bigger therefore the cat is more intrigued by more water
Usually that means the cat is over fed, the owner leaves out the cat's food bowl 24/7 with food always in it. When that happens, the cat will get so full, when it is meal time, it'll just sniff the bowl and walk away. That is unhealthy for your cat.
put some form of lid on the fish bowl basically, but make sure they're is air holes in the lid and the water needs to be oxygenated
Although disgusting and nasty, unlike a dog, cats typically will not eat or drink anything that could make them sick. However, if the toilet has a cleaning agent such as bleach or a time released cleaner installed, this could make them sick. Give the cat a bowl of water!
Contrary to popular belief cats are in fact lactose-intolerant. You should never give a cat whole milk it can make them sick. Kahlua shouldn't be given to a cat it can make them sick.
Chase the cat to the bowl by turning the tap and keep distracting it to let it fall.
Fish isn't a cat, end of.
