Polyuria and/or polydipsia (PU/PD) can be a frustrating presentation for clients trying to cope with increased volumes of urine from their pet. A logical approach is required. This chapter looks at the underlying mechanisms of thirst, urine production and urine concentration, before considering the pathophysiology and diagnostic approach of PU/PD and associated conditions. Case examples: Polydipsia and muscle weakness in a Domestic Shorthaired Cat; Polydipsia and polyuria in a Labrador Retriever with a cough.
