It’s extremely important to make sure that your cat has access to fresh clean water every moment of every day. The trouble is, remembering to water your cat every day can be a bit of a challenge. That’s where jug water bowls come in, but are they good for cats?

Large water jugs allow water to fill the bottom basin as your cat drinks. Large jugs allow your cat to drink water for a week or more before the water needs to be refilled, but that can cause problems. Water that sits for a long period of time can develop a slimy film, which isn’t very appetizing. Water can also become dusty or stale.

You can try using a water jug, but if your cat doesn’t like it, you may have to go back to using a regular old water bowl. To learn more, call your veterinarian Grayson GA.
