Does your cat avoid the water bowl like the plague? You’re not alone. Many pet owners wonder how to properly keep their cat hydrated – especially when the weather outside gets hot.
Interestingly, the solution to this problem came from a trend straight out of… human cuisine! Meet Fruity Shake – the latest culinary innovation from UNIQ PETS, which lets you treat your cat like royalty while taking care of its health and proper hydration.
Desert Heritage: Why Don’t Cats Like to Drink Water?
To understand feline habits, we need to go back in time. Domestic cats are descendants of African wildcats that lived in dry, desert regions. In the wild, their prey contains around 70 – 80% moisture.
Evolution shaped cats to obtain most of their fluids directly from food, which is why they have a relatively weak thirst drive. They often don’t feel the need to drink, even when they are mildly dehydrated. The introduction of dry kibble into their diet- which contains only about 5 – 10% moisture – created what many experts call a hydration gap.
Insufficient water intake may increase the risk of:
Crystal and bladder stone formation
Kidney stress, especially in senior cats
Urinary tract issues
Fruity Shake: Human-Inspired Nutrition, Reimagined for Cats
wet cat food
We were inspired by summer cocktails and created a new product for cats.

milk for cat
This is not ordinary wet food. It is a velvety, creamy shake with an exceptionally smooth texture that cats can easily lick. We combined high-quality animal protein with natural, vitamin-rich fruits, creating a balanced meal that goes beyond just meat.
The perfect refreshment for hot days.
Cats have a unique hydration physiology. They descend from desert animals, therefore:
- they do not experience a strong sense of thirst,
- they obtain most of their water from food,
- and they often drink too little when they eat dry food.
Fruity Shake addresses these needs by providing water in a natural form – through food.
Modern functional nutrition
Each Fruity Shake is a complete, wet meal that combines:
- high-quality meat (salmon, chicken, duck)
- taurine supporting heart and vision
- functional fruits (cranberries, melon, pear)
- a broth-based, creamy foundation with high moisture content
Flavor variants:
Duck & pear – gentle sweetness and easy digestibility
Salmon & cranberry – support for urinary tract health and immunity
Chicken & melon – light, refreshing taste for summer
Because every cat — from a curious kitten to a dignified senior — deserves royal treatment. Forget the stress of dehydration and treat your purring companion to UNIQ PETS Fruity Shake today!
