Why are my kitten's pee clumps bigger since using a water fountain?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | Siamese | Female | spayed | 6 months and 26 days old | 4.41 lbs

Hello, Since Skye started to drink from a water fountain she's eating and drinking more so she pees and poops more. About twice a day her pee clumps are bigger than the ones of the rest of the day, I noticed early in the morning when I clean the litter box after night use and after nap time. She's a healthy kitten, eats dry & wet food (good quality) she doesn't show any signs of eilness. is this normal? Thank you for your help

As long as she is otherwise well i would not be overly concerned but continue to monitor for any other signs. Many cats do not drink enough and water fountains are great to encourage healthy water intake
