So how much should a cat drink? A normal catâs daily water requirement ranges from 5 to 10 fluid ounces per day (or an average of 60 ml/kg/day). Cats eating canned food will receive much of their daily water needs from their food, since canned food is about 70 to 80 percent water. In contrast, dry food is only 7 to 10 percent water. Normal cats eating canned food may need to drink less than 1 ounce of additional water per day, whereas a cat consuming only a dry diet may need to drink over 7 ounces per day to stay hydrated.
Q. How much does a dog normally drink every day? A. The daily water intake for a dog is about three to six ounces of water for every five pounds of body weight â so a 25-pound dog would drink between a pint and almost two pints per day under average conditions. The amount goes up if the weather is hot, the dog is exercising or both. Depending on whether or not a pet eats canned or dry food, up to half of a pet's daily water consumption can come from food. Itâs important to have an idea of whatâs normal for your own pet, so you can spot when water intake has changed and talk to your veterinarian about this.
