I had to post this as it may be old hat to the more experienced owners but I did this all on my own. Whey hey!
She hasn't really been drinking and I read that they don't understand standing water. She has had a water bowl ever since she arrived but apart from standing in it that was it. I've bathed her a few times but she didn't drink.
Friend suggested spraying her and I made up a spray bottle with tap water and let it stand so as not to be too cold.
I was spraying her and I dropped a few drops on her nose. I had read this a few times here.
Anyway I a cidently hit her water bowl and she went over to it. She looked and then stArtd to drink. She really didn't mind the water spray but I didn't deliberately target her. She just egnores it and drank quite a bit.
Hey I've made a discovery all on my own.
She's certainly.liven up and I will try that again tomorrow.
Might help someone. It's worked for me.
