Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Do you have a cat who insists on drinking from a dripping faucet? Save time and money by using this unique filtered waterfall instead of turning your faucets on and off and paying more on your water bills. Do you have a cat who is prone to urinary tract or kidney disorders? Save trips to the vet by giving your cat this innovative constant access to running water, encouraging him to drink more and improve urinary health. Do you simply want to provide your pet with the best for good health and fun? Save worrying over your pet's well being by knowing they have their own waterfall of freshened water anytime they want it. As the veterinarian who created the fountain for her own cats knows, many cats may not drink as much water as they should. This is one reason the urine becomes so concentrated and predisposes some cats to urinary tract disease. Cats with urinary tract or kidney disease have a critical need for water to support kidney function or prevent crystal formation and obstruction.

- Too loud, too expensive, doesn't hold enough water
Water fountains for pets is a great idea but I'm still waiting for somebody who actually owns pets to create the perfect water fountain that isn't so expensive. This one has too many cons for it's cost ($50.00 at Petco), so I will be returning mine. Besides being overpriced here are other cons: it's too loud, which freaks out skittish cats. It requires a filter, which costs more money. It doesn't hold enough water (extra water reservoir sold separately, more $$ down the drain). It's not easy to clean and you'll end up cleaning it more often than the pamphlet says you'll need to. The flow adjuster is too cheaply made to be useful and it'll break easily. Finally, I wish somebody would create a fountain or bubbler that does not have to be plugged in.

- Cats never use it.
We bought this to encourage our cat to drink because of his urinary problems. The cat never used it. We have a new cat. He does not use it. He prefers drinking out of the dog water or the toilet, which we discourage. A visitor cat who enjoys drinking out of faucets also doesn't use it. I wonder, even if it has a filter, if the water still gets stale. I am not inclined to taste it, however.

Otherwise it works well, fills easily, and is relatively silent. After 3 months I have turned it off. Perhaps I will try again with another cat.

- Not Bad Before, But Now It Has Been Outdone Hands Down By It's Platinum Replacement!
This pet fountain was okay when I first bought two of them for my cats several years ago, but it did have problems, and they are as follows:

1. You absolutely needed to get the reservoir tank in order to have enough water for your cat. The small reservoir alone did not hold enough water.

2. I didn't really care for the old-style filters that didn't have the individual compartments like the new ones.

3. The filter system seemed to clog up rather easily, compared to the new version.

4. It was very difficult to clean. I constantly had a hard time cleaning in the smaller areas, which you had to do by hand because this version wasn't "dishwasher safe."

5. It always seemed to "slime-up" on me even though I cleaned it at least twice ... Read More

- Wonderful Product, Though a bit Noisy, it is WORTH IT!
KEEPS CATS HAPPY & KEEPS THEM HEALTHY. A+

Excellent product, I have had it for nearly two years now.

With two adopted feral kittens (now both nearly 3), I had a few tasks at hand to say the least. One of them was that the cats wouldn't drink water out of a bowl without putting their paws in it and splashing it all over the floor first. Fun times.

Enter the Drinkwell Fountain.

Boy cat LOVES to lick from the waterfall and Girl cat happily drinks from the bowl area. Both, quite noticeably, drink more than I've ever seen cats drink of still water in a bowl.

They are healthy and happy - and I am happy! While it takes a little effort to clean thoroughly, so what? It's a great tool. I clean usually every week to sometimes (with ... Read More

- Great for cats with urinary problems
This is a great product. I got mine for my two cats, who love to drink out of the faucet and bathtub. I had wanted one for awhile, but thought the cost was a little unreasonable. When my oldest cat got his fourth urinary tract infection I decided the cost was worth it if I could improve upon his health. So far he has been healthy and loves to use it. I was a little surprised the "hum" of the motor was a bit louder than I had anticipated, but the cats seem unphased by it. I had read some complaints that the motors burn out without constant attention. I haven't had any trouble with mine, even with the minimal maintenance I am able to give it. I add water when it gets low, and clean the whole thing out once a week. I have it in a low traffic area, which keeps the hair out, which I think is the trick ... Read More
