Opinions on pet water fountains for my cat?
I’m thinking about getting one of those pet fountains for my cat. She absolutely loves drinking (and playing in) running water from our tub and sinks so I think she would enjoy something like this.
I’ve been looking online and in pet supply catalogs, Drinkwell and Fresh Flow seem to be the popular brands. What kind do you have, and do you and your pets like it? Any suggestions on what size would be good for a cat? I’d prefer one that doesn’t need the filter changed on a daily basis and is fairly easy to clean. Price is not really an issue; I just want a quality fountain.
I got a Drinkwell Fountain for cat my in December. She didn’t really seem to care whether or not the water she drank was running or not before, but she’d come running whenever she heard me watering the plants. When we first got it she didn’t really drink much from it for the first few weeks. But since that was her only source of water, she learned to get used to it.
The fountain is really quiet and you can only hear it if there’s no other sounds. The filter is optional so if you don’t want to change it just put already filtered water in. I haven’t tried cleaning it yet but it comes with 3 different brushes to clean everything.

My cats love the fresh flow I have. I use it more in the summer. It seems to keep the water cold and not so stale. You do not have to change everyday, but cleaning filter is good. Just get whatever size is best for you.
