Ultimatum *updated with results!*

Kim - I know a lot of Brita pitchers are to be had at second hand stores.

And there are inexpensive generic filters you can use.

I had a roomate once who had a cat - I had one that I kept in my own room - and when he was out, he always went to the OTHER cat's water dish!

She used Brita - I used tap!

Apparently it tastes more like rainwater than tap water does!

You could also try keeping tap water in a pitcher til the chlorine dissipates.

Just a thought.

Catnapper--did you try leaving the toilet seats up for their drinking pleasure?

(sorry...couldn't resist)

On the serious side...for Becky I make homemade chicken broth so she gets more fluids. I buy chicken breasts when they are on sale in the huge packages and then microwave them in a little water to cook them.

After they are cooked, I add some water to the broth to make it go farther and then freeze it in little containers. The chicken I then use in casseroles, salads, and sandwiches (very cost effective).

But Becky loves loves her chicken broth and will drink it at any time. The picky little princess won't drink store bought chicken broth, so this is what I do.

No, I do not spoil my cats.
