		<description>Thanks for the reminder about cats in hot climates, Doc. It helped me resolve to take the dish away, at least for a while. I know she&#039;ll use the fountain if she realizes she has to.</description>

		<description>Cats are genetically made to store water for longer periods of time than many animals. Their origins are thought to be Egypt, hot and dry. And think of the big cats in the hot jungles of Africa. 

All living beings and organism will seek food and water when they are needed. I personally would leave the fountain and put the water dish away. Natural instinct to survive will get her the first drink. 

It also may take her a bit longer if you are feeding moist food, just the same as big cats can satisfy a certain percentage of their water intake through the animals they eat.  

I personally don&#039;t believe that would be cruel as you are giving her water. She may not like it, just the same as a child would throw a fit over something, but it would be pretty safe to say, her instinct to survive would take over before she shriveled up into a raisin cat. :)
