For some reason, my lionhead Einstein will not drink his water. I've been noticing this over the past few weeks - his water bottle stays full, and his litter box is pretty dry when I clean it. It doesn't matter if the water is fresh or not - a recently changed water bottle does not seem to appeal to him any more. I use cold tap water to fill it up, no vitamins. The only I recent change I could think of that would affect his desire to drink his water is a reduction in his daily pellets about a month ago.
Water is coming out of his bottle when I press on it with my finger. But when I try putting some on my finger and giving to him, he ducks his head so I can't reach his mouth. He's been eating normally, and he gets vegetables daily, so I guess that's keeping him somewhat hydrated. But I would like his to drink his water! Any thoughts?
