Hey all,
I'm sorry to post so many questions here, but there are so many things that cause me worry!
Merlin was dehydrated a few weeks ago. I took him to the vet because he wasn't eating and was told that this dehydration is likely why. I've gone through the paces to rehydrate the little guy and he is doing much better now!
I'm still paranoid about it, however. How often do they normally drink to stay hydrated? I've never seen him drink from his water dish, although I've showed it to him half a dozen times. I give him a bath once a day and spray him 2-3 times for good measure. He drinks in the bath a few times a week. Is this enough to keep him hydrated? He's only a few (2-3) months old.
Thanks a million
