Thirsty drink
The weather has been extremely dry because of the Santa Ana winds blowing across the land. I try to make Namiko drink as much water as possible at every opportunity. Even when she is relaxing on the carpet, I move her water bowl in front of her to coax Namiko to drink more. Sometimes it works and sometimes she protests the move by getting up and moving away.
In this instance, the attempt was successful. Namiko drinks heartily from her green water bowl.
Never the type to be subtle, Namiko pushes the bowl away from her after she is done:
I actually had a video of her drinking from it but baka me accidentally deleted it.

Yeah, more water is better. Cats are desert creatures so they tend to concentrate their urine and drink less water. If Meiko likes running water, maybe she will like those water fountains like the ones from Petmate or Drinkwell. Too little water means kidney problems in the future. And yes diabetes is also a big concern, so I feed Namiko food that are low on carbohydrates (such as corn and other grains) and high on protein.
