Hi Maryjane, I moved your post as it won't be seen by many people where it was.

Excessive drinking can be caused by many things not least diet. To be honest without more info it's hard to say why but I would play safe and get a vet to take a look I case it's something more serious than diet alone.

Exessive drinking could be a sign of diabetes but best contact your vet for a qualified opinion.
