Sweet and tasty, watermelons are one of summer's iconic treats. Not only is it juicy and refreshing, it is hydrating and satisfying. There's a good reason watermelon is standard fare at summer picnics and barbecues.
While watermelon is over 90% water, it tastes delicious. Even my cats Maui and Mauli love eating watermelon and licking up watermelon juice.
Before sharing watermelon with our kittiers, we verified with our veterinarians at The Cat Hospital that watermelon is a safe treat for cats. They actually absorb more hydration from watermelon than just water. This extra hydration is especially. helpful for Maui who suffers from crystals in his urine.
