I’m still beating myself up because I didn’t see Melbcat’s water dropping and yesterday she’d got down to a few drops left before I noticed. I’ve been struggling physically and mentally lately but that’s literally never happened before and is unacceptable.
It’s that damn opaque white porcelain bowl… It’s quite large so I wasn’t expecting it to empty so fast, missed a refill due to being sidetracked, and can’t easily see if it’s full. Might retire that bowl.
As of the minute I noticed I now have multiple large clear bowls of water in different places and will be floating clean ping pong balls in them so I can easily see the level. I’ve also ordered a gravity water dispenser and a water fountain to see if she’ll use either of them. (She didn’t use her previous water fountain and I eventually gave it away, but let’s try again.)
And set daily alarms on my phone to check her water.
I was watering the plants and the magpies but somehow missed the most important person… Unbelievable.
This is not happening again.
This is probably the most important thing 💧for the most important person 🐈⬛
In this heat and with her kidneys it is so important for her to have water.
But I’m sorting everything out so there’ll be a few sources available
Guilt
