Can cats drink sea water?

Answer 1

No, cats should not drink sea water. Sea water contains high levels of salt, which can be dangerous for cats. Drinking too much salt water can cause dehydration and can lead to electrolyte imbalances. Cats should only drink fresh, clean water to stay hydrated.

Answer 2

Cats CAN drink saltwater

While you won't be refreshed by a glass of saltwater, your kitty actually can be. Feline kidneys can filter out the salt from water, which allows them to consume and rehydrate by drinking salt water.
