If you have canned/tinned cat food that would be the best to feed her. Tinned food is high in water content so you don't have to be so worried about if she is drinking or not if she will eat this food. You could also put a bowl of chicken broth out for her to drink. Sometimes they like the taste of that better. Always have a bowl of plain water out for her too. Unfortunately, you cannot force her to drink.
