Hormonales
A rare condition in which the body cannot concentrate urine properly, causing enormous thirst and urination. It has NOTHING to do with sugar (mellitus) diabetes.
A lack of antidiuretic hormone (due to a problem in the pituitary gland) or a failure of the kidney to respond to that hormone. It may be congenital or acquired.
The vet first rules out much more common causes of excessive drinking/urination (diabetes mellitus, kidney disease, Cushing's) and then carries out specific tests.
Depending on the type, hormone replacement therapy. It is essential that the animal ALWAYS has water available.
Not preventable.
See your vet if your pet drinks excessive amounts of water and urinates a great deal. There are several possible causes and it is important to identify which one it is.
