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.
However, when feeding a dry food to your cat, only around 10% of the weight of the food is moisture; so 100g of dry food contains only around 10ml of water, not enough to fulfil a fraction of your catâs daily water intake. good rule of thumb and a very broad average in terms of appropriate water consumption for cats, is that cats should receive 60ml of water for every kg of body weight each day.
