Is it seasonal...?

All through the summer Bisc didn't drink too much water. This was fine as she was taking a lot from grass and veg.

The last few weeks she has been drinking quite a bit (no difference with wees or poops). I wonder if she is eating more hay to fatten herself up, which is causing her to drink more. Just a theory.

Anyone else have this? :?
 
Does she have as much fresh now as she did in the summer? (like does she still have as much access to grass, etc?).

Could be seasonal, but one to watch nonetheless.

My OH said that actually. We have just started turning the radiators on for the first time.

And no, probably less grass, but I thought i was giving her enough veg still. Although she is having some dried dandelion and grass as a treat, so maybe that is a little dry too and needs some water.

I will keep my peepers peeled!
