**In general terms, that would mean, for example, that a normal 4.5 kg
(10-lb.) cat would be expected to have a typical daily urine output of
around 180 ml (6 fluid oz.), or less. A typical daily water intake would be
in the area of 202 ml (6.75 fluid oz.), or less.
Of course, each individual cat's normal input/output will probably vary a
bit from this.**

Cats Can't Drink Enough Water!
All cats' diets need to include fresh water, no matter what they eat.
J. Veronika Kiklevich, DVM
Veterinarians believe that cats simply do not drink enough water.
Increasing the amount of water cats drink on a daily basis helps avoid many
types of kidney and bladder problems. I encourage you to keep fresh water
available for your cats at all times. Some cats like to drink running water,
and often people will purchase a device specifically for cats that provides
fresh running water at all times.
It is also important to monitor the amount that your cat drinks. Any change
in your cats water intake may signify that something is wrong. If, for
instance, you virtually never see your cat drinking, then you suddenly
notice that it is at the water dish several times a day, that could indicate
something is wrong. In that case, you need to get your cat to the
veterinarian in hope of diagnosing the problem early while it is still
treatable.**
