Best Water Content-Rich Foods for Cats

Ranked by water content content among foods safe for cats in the Creature Feast catalog.

Low-Sodium Bone Broth per 100ml: ~95ml water content Low-sodium bone broth is an excellent hydration tool for cats — its meaty aroma entices reluctant drinkers, and the warm liquid is soothing to the digestive tract.

Flaxseed per 100ml: ~92–95ml water content Bone broth can be frozen into small cubes and offered as a treat or poured over dry food to significantly boost moisture intake.

Cucumber per 100g: 96ml water Cucumber is 96% water and can be offered in thin slices as a hydrating treat. Some cats enjoy the crunchy texture.
