Water is the most important component of the living body. In the past, we often heard many people suggest that it is best for adults to drink 2000-3000cc of boiled water every day, which is best for health. But in fact, everyone’s water consumption is different. Is it right to need so much water? What about furry kids? How much water should we drink in a day? How can we help and judge those who don’t like to drink water?

In fact, for us and our furry children, in addition to looking at age, weight, daily activity, and physical needs, the water supplement standards for each person or dog and cat are also based on the simplest way, which is to observe the usual daily routine. Judge by urine color. In addition to the discoloration of urine caused by eating dragon fruit or taking medicine, normally the lighter the color of the urine, the more water intake it (you) has. On the contrary, if the color of its (your) urine is yellowish, it means The water supply is too little!

For fur babies, in addition to drinking water and water naturally metabolized by the body, the source of water intake also comes from water in feeding. According to the current types and moisture content of pet feeding, it is mainly divided into: dry food (about 10% moisture), semi-moist food (about 25% moisture), canned food (about 45-55% moisture), and fresh food (about 45% moisture). (65-75% water), so owners can follow the feeding method and refer to body weight and activity level (normal dogs need about 40-70cc/kg of water per day; cats need about 30-60cc/kg of water per day) ; You can also use a rough calculation of about 5% of the body weight to determine how much more water it should drink.

In addition, if your furry child suffers from kidney stones, diabetes, high blood pressure and other diseases, you can give more water supplements as appropriate; if you have heart disease or liver disease, it is best to control excessive water intake and increase the burden on the body. When giving water to furry babies, owners should also note that it is best to give water at normal temperature. Do not give water that is too cold because the weather is hot, or water that is too hot because the weather is cold, to avoid causing vomiting or physical discomfort.

A special reminder is that no matter whether the staple food you feed is dry food or fresh food, don't add too much soup to your furry child every day because he doesn't like to drink water. Just like people cannot eat porridge or rice soup every day, it will easily cause gastrointestinal digestive problems or diseases. It is best to increase the amount of food, fruits and vegetables with high water content, or add a small amount of milk, soy milk, and honey to drinking water. etc., increasing the taste of water encourages drinking water to be healthier.

As for the time and method of giving drinking water, it is better to give it in small quantities in batches a day, or to use a regular fixed-point water feeder (pay attention to daily water changes and cleaning). Avoid drinking large amounts of water before or after meals to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort or loss of appetite due to drinking too much water.
