Catit LED Flower Fountain with Triple Action Filter, Cat Drinking Water Fountain, 3 L

I’ve used a lot of water fountains for our cats. I used a knock off brand, two harmony brand, and Catit is the most recent brand I’ve used and I’m sticking with it. The most important reason why is because of cleaning. Harmony was a great design with easy filters to use, but it had all sorts of edges and corners that were impossible to clean regularly and time efficiently. I would have to get a q-tip to clean them, and the corners and edges got dirty faster than any part of the fountain due to the water flow being disrupted there. The knock off brand had a circular filter like Catit has, but it was only carbon filtering, and for some reason the makers decided to put edges inside of the water reservoir for no reason, leading to the same cleaning annoyance. Catit has no edges that build up gunk inside of the reservoir, everything is a smooth curve, meaning a sponge or towel can easily wipe away everything. I also like how the filter is structured, you can actually see the filter underneath the cover since it doesn’t cover it completely. This helps me know when I should clean or replace it without disassembling the whole thing. The filter also has more than carbon filtering it. I don’t remember what the white filter media is at the time of writing this review, and I’m writing it on mobile and can’t check unfortunately, but when I read it I was impressed. I own fish tanks and the media used had filter cleaning properties that carbon just doesn’t cover. We use brita filtered water anyways, but it’s nice to have a second filter making sure our cats drink clean water. Another thing is that the water pump is strong. Most brands use the same water pump that can be adjusted to weak to strong flow, but this pump has its weakest setting like the strongest setting of the previous ones. This means that the pump is less likely to get blocked, and when it dies build up gunk (usually fur or bioslime) its flow won’t be impacted so much, or as fast. Their are also guides on the bottom letting you know where the pump goes. And unlike most brands, the output of the pump isn’t off center, it’s just about right in the middle, which means you’ll never place the output in the wrong way (for example, the pumps of previous fountains had the output shifted to the right, so if you rotated the pump in any other direction, it wouldn’t go up the fountains tube.) A small yet helpful design change like that just makes the cleaning even easier. So far, I’ve had one Catit fountain I bought at the store, and no bioslime has accumulated even after two weeks. Bioslime usually appeared in other fountains after a week or less, I’d assume due to the weaker flow allowing it to settle on the surfaces, and due to the carbon only filter. I ordered two more Catit fountains through Amazon, and the only issue is that one fountain didn’t come with the yellow middle piece. Not sure how it happened, but it worked out since the cat I’m using it for like to drink from the middle output anyways. Two more neat things is 1. The clear plastic window that shows you how much water is in there. This is why I decided to try this fountain in the first place, it was such a neat design improvement, and it wasn’t all clear like some water fountains (which the excess light coming in from the all clear plastic can lead to algae growth) you have to look closely, at least on the non-led one, but you can usually tell by the drops of water that appear inside the window when the water level gets low. No need to dissemble the fountain, and you can see before it gets loud when it needs water. Another thing, this filter doesn’t get loud even when it gets low. I’d assume it’d get loud if it had no water, but you’d be able to catch it before that happens with the window. The low noise is such a relief, as with three of these I don’t always get the chance to refill them in a timely manner. The second neat thing is the filter replacements. Besides the two filter media’s, it’s got a hard plastic bottom, that just feels more study than the typical filter floss on a support structure that most filters use. I also find that I can rinse the filter since it’s so sturdy, and doesn’t get filthy like the others. I bought replacements, a pack of 5, for a good price in my opinion considering the quality of the filters, but I wonder when I’ll actually need to use them. One thing to note about carbon, it has a life span, something owning fish tanks has lead me to find. You’ll want to change the filters monthly just because of this, as when carbon reaches its end of its lifespan, it will not only stop filtering, but it’ll release some of what it’s filtered. Another thing to say, as if this isn’t an essay already, is that with our four cats of varying shapes and sizes, they all love these fountains. The water level actually drops faster than any other fountain I’ve had, showing that they are drinking more as well! With one cat having renal problems, this is such a relief. Drinking more prevents renal issues from occurring, like for our three younger cats, and prevents them from worsening, like for our old cat with renal problems. If you have a cat who has never drank from a fountain before, they’ll learn quick, but don’t be surprised if they seem taken a back at first. Most cats are used to water in a bowl because it’s what most people use, but flowing water is far more appealing to them once they realize it’s just water. Anyways, great water fountain! If anything happens over time that’s worth noting, I’ll be sure to update this review. But having the filter for over two weeks now, and this time mark usually being the time for poor design choices to reveal themselves, I’m pretty sure this a great filter. Oh, promise this is the last thing. For those who are always hunting for Made in USA products... the unfortunate news is that even after hours of searching I have yet to find any that fit the bill. The good news is that these fountains are made in Malaysia. The bad news is that the replacement filters are made in China... but I’ll take what I can get at this point. Okay, wait, seriously this is the last thing. The only thing I have not tested it how these stand up to machine washing, so I’ll be sure to update when I do that with the results.

When I first saw this water fountain I immediately wanted it! My older cat (5-years-old) usually breaks the fountains I buy for her. By break I mean she loves water so much that she will drinks consistently throughout the day and more so during the night which makes the water level so low that the motor eventually burns out. Even though I was constantly filling the water up to the appropriate level she still managed to burn every motor of every fountain I have ever bought for her. Then I brought a kitten into our family (he is now 9 months old) and sure enough, between the two of them, the last $100 fountain I bought they broke by burning the motor out. I was not at all turned off by the fact that this fountain is made out of plastic and I did my research before deciding to purchase it. The plastic is BPA free. Both Beau (older female kitty) and Aticus (male kitten) love drinking from the spouts of the other fountains I had so this one was perfect! I really love that the base is tall enough so that the cats are not straining their necks drinking water from down below. It is at a perfect height for both of them. Some reviewers complained that there should be an indicator that the water level is low. I do not agree. As a long time fountain user for my animals, I am constantly checking the water levels on my own daily or every other day. In my opinion, this should be done regardless of the water level being too low to check for potential debris that could clog or hurt the motor. Also, the motor makes a slightly louder noise when the water level is low and over the years I have learned to attune my ears to this sound- so much that periodically over the years I have heard the sound in the middle of the night and have gotten out of bed to refill the water. This isn't a problem with me because the fountain reaps so many benefits. Some other reviewers have also complained that the motor sound is too loud. Again, I disagree. Unless these people are sleeping on the floor right next to the fountain, it is barely noticeable. To provide an idea of what it sounds like with water at the appropriate level, it is a very dim humming sound. Not nearly enough to be bothersome. The dim sound gets a bit louder when the water level is too low. I will say that it took almost two weeks for both Beau and Aticus to finally drink out of the fountain. However, Beau being the picky kitty that she is, I knew this was going to happen as it has happened with every single water fountain. Since Aticus is the baby, he follows what she does most of the time, and so both ignored the fountain at first. Both cats are fed raw food with water and TikiCat canned food mixed in so I was not worried that they were not receiving any water. My own personal trick that worked to get them to finally notice and utilize the water fountain was simple. Whenever my husband and I leave for vacation, the cats are fed Orijen Six-Fish dry food in an automatic feeder. Before being scrutinized for feeding both dry and raw food (I know the pros and cons and know that both are digested differently), I would like to say that a vacation for us is maybe once a month and lasts between a weekend and a week at the most. Of course, we have a friend come in to refill the water and tend to other cat related care, but the reason behind the dry food is that the way in which I prepare the raw food is tedious and Beau will not eat it unless it is prepared by myself or my husband (did I say she was picky?) and Aticus will sworm in and eat both his food and hers. Therefore, it makes sense to have high quality dry food once a month for both the cats and the sitters sake. I digress. My trick was simple. Since neither of them seemed to take to the fountain, I replaced their regular raw food with dry food for one day. Since the dry food lacks in moisture, I knew eventually they would both become thirsty. I was right. I watched both of them drink from the fountain later that day and now they drink out of it all of the time. All in all, the price for the fountain was remarkably cheaper than any other fountain I had previously bought them. I clean it once a week as well as the motor (unless otherwise indicated), check the water level daily or every other day, and also bought a pack of replaceable filters which are replaced once a month. Even if the motor burns out on this one (which I am hoping it doesn't) I will purchase this same fountain as the price is great! Both kitties approve and so does mom! Great product! EDIT: 2016 SEPT 01 The past few weeks water has been pooling in the green reservoir despite me changing the filter every month and rinsing it and cleaning the entire fountain including the pump at the end of every week. Other than that, about three weeks into the purchase the top part of the plug in broke off and I had attempted to glue it back on with no luck, but since the fountain was still functional it wasn't a huge concern and I just loosely put it back in place. That being said, I came home today to find the fountain had overflowed despite it being at medium water level. I should have known this was the fountains immanent death. Anyway, I cleaned the fountain and replaced the filter as usual and went to to plug it in and nothing. I tried different outlets and still nothing- the fountain was done for. I am disappointed that after a little less than nine months it's completely broken and unusable but because the fountain is cheap compared to other fountains I ordered a new one. I hope the new one holds up.

It's really cute and my family and friends have complemented the fountain when they see it. Even though it's plastic, it stays pretty clean thanks to the way it's built. The way it works is that the filter goes underneath the internal green surface under the flower so any water that goes back into the bucket is cat hair and food free. This keeps the motor running smoothly since there is no worry about food/cat hair clogging it up. It does still need to be cleaned periodically though since the usual slime that builds up in any bowl or fountain is still apparent. I've noticed that after a two or so weeks, there appears to be some sort of foam that builds up in the little pool that exists on the side (where the water goes back down). Rinsing off the filter works well enough to remedy that for another few weeks. I only change the filter once it gets to the point where the rate of the water draining is so slow that you can see the water building up to the emergency drain line even though the fountain isn't that full. My cat loves this fountain and drinks from it all the time. You can choose to use just the flat surface so water does a soft flow over the surface being draining back down, making it so a little bubbler occurs that they can drink from, or with the flower, it makes 5 little streams of falling water. The noise level depends on where you put it. I have it in the corner and on tile floor so the noise is a bit louder but not to an annoying degree. It's more of a muted buzzing sound. Out of the corner and on a surface that isn't tile, it's extremely quiet. The water level also determines the loudness of the motor - the less water, the louder it is for obvious reasons. The reason I had bought this fountain was because I noticed my cat was barely drinking any water. At first she was little afraid of it but was also super intrigued and did the usual sniff, back off, sniff, lick, back off dance. After a few minutes she started drinking greedily from it and continues to do so (yay!). I have had other fountains before but I chose this one over other fountains because it was easy to clean and because it promised that it would keep out anything that wasn't water from the pool which meant the water she drank was always guaranteed to be clean and the motor wouldn't clog. This I promise is completely true, as long as you use a filter. The only negative is the filters are a little pricey and third-party filters (like the one I'm currently using) aren't as high quality. The third-party one I bought has it so Instead of the yellow or black area filling up the entire quarter of the circle, it's more like a little square piece that's within that quarter, held together by the plastic underneath and the white filter material on the top.

I have four cats. I really want to like this, but thus far, only one of my four cats will use this. It has been a little over two weeks. Here is my experience with it thus far. Day 1 - The fountain itself is easy to to put together and easy to clean. It's not loud at all. To the people who are complaining about noise, you probably got a bad pump. All I can hear is some water trickling. I set it up after cleaning it, and 2 of my four cats sniff it and walk away. Day 2 - Still haven't seen a cat drink out of it. Day 3 - I think that maybe they drink out of it when I'm not looking or listening, so I set up a game cam across from it. I'm hoping to catch them drinking. Day 4-8 - Game cam captures many pictures of the cats giving the fountain a wide berth as they walk by, but not a single drink. I don't bother to set it back up. Day 10 - I hear the telltale mlem mlem mlem of a cat drinking! I walk in to the room slowly, and there's my dumbest cat, drinking away! I consider for a moment that maybe I don't give her enough credit, and maybe she's smarter than I thought. She the proceeds to lick the side of the fountain, the wall next to the fountain and then the floor by the fountain. Never mind. I decide to clean the fountain since I actually have a cat drinking out of it. Aside from some charcoal from the filter that has found its way to the bottom of the bucket, the fountain is clean. I wipe it out and replace the water anyway. Cleaning it remains barely any more difficult than cleaning a cat's water bowl. Day 11-16 - Dumb cat continues drinking out of it. My furry cat sniffs it occasionally, but she has yet to drink. My chill cat stares at it, but won't drink and my psycho cat has yet to go in the room since I turned the fountain on. Dumb cat often has a face full of water because she just kind of shoves her whole head in the fountain to drink. Day 26 - Psycho cat walks in the room with the fountain, climbs on top of it, and drinks! I'm very glad that psycho cat is tiny. If chill cat (A great big tomcat) or furry cat (a Maine coon) try this, problems will ensue. Day 31 - Chill cat and Furry cat both drink! Luckily, my two huge cats gingerly mlem up water without even bumping up against the reservoir bucket. If either of my big cats get Psycho cat's idea and climb on this fountain, water is going everyone. Psycho is maybe 8 pounds. Chill is around 18 and Furry is a Maine Coon. I will update in the future if anything anything changes. Personally, I have had no problems with it thus far, but only one of my four cats will use it, so I can't really give it a glowing review. I have tried everything from putting it right next to their usual water bowl to pretending to drink out of it while my cats watch. Nothing has worked. I think one of the problems is the fact that no standing water exists in the fountain. I think three of my cats might need an intermediate fountain that has both moving and standing water to train them to use this thing. All of my cats are between 3 and 6 years old by the way. As of the 4/21, two of my four cats use it. I will keep this updated as time goes on. The fountain works fine, but it gets noisy when the water level drops. That's a good time to clean it! As of 4/28, all of my cats use it. I have raised my review to 4 stars. It certainly isn't perfect, but it good enough for now. After a month, everything still works just fine. The pump is only noisy when the water level gets low. The only way to tell that the water is low, is by either taking off the top and looking or the pump noise. If the water level is very low, you will hear water splashing all the way from the top into the water on the bottom. I clean it every time I change the water, and cleaning this thing is a breeze. The only issue I have is that cat hair gets stuck in the filter. I suppose that's what a filter is for though. If either of my large cats start climbing on this thing, they are going to knock it over. If you have a large cat that has a tendency to climb on everything, this is probably not for you.

***** Revised Review ***** I found this product had a few problems, but nothing that requires any deductions of stars. But I was curious about the massive number of one star reviews. (391-10% of reviews) So I started reading them. 95% or so had complaints about the pump-it stopped working anywhere fresh out of the box to 1 to 12 months later. Most often it stopped working after 30 days to 4-5 months. The other pump problem was that it was or got extremely noisy-this often presaged pump failure. I also read about the pump "floating" around with nothing to attach it to anything. Mine had 2 suckers attached to the bottom of the pump. It seems to me that someone at the company decided to cut corners and replace the correct pumps with a cheaper, weaker, very un-dependable pump. This same pinhead was allowed to keep changing the design so a LOT of parts didn't fit properly. Another big problem was Hagen's return policy (have to have original box) and lousy, rude and unresponsive customer service. I'm adding this to my review because I spent a lot of time reading these reviews and I wish to spare others this headache. Some reviewers complained that when power went out, the cat(s) didn't have access to water. After reading all these negative reviews, I now expect my pump to give out anytime now although I haven't yet gotten the loud motor noises. My motor is very quiet. But what I did buy was a 3 liter USED unit because of all the negative reviews. It cost $5 less. Big whoop. I guess it was a good thing because I think this unit is one of the older ones that worked better 😺. Another major complaint was that mold would grow in the filter and/or other places within 2-5 days. This is just gross and made some cats sick even though the customer followed all instructions and advice from "Hagen's" website. I live in a pretty low humidity area so I don't know if it was just the dark inside of the unit and the heat from the motor causing this. Some of the pictures showed "red slime" mold and others showed normal green/gray spotting mold. Because the "pinhead" (aka: the corner cutter) who made such incredibly stupid decisions, must have also decided to ship RETURNED units and sell them as NEW units. Now that's just illegal. There were many instances of finding everything from cat hairs to mold stains to silicon (the lucky ones just got dusty units) on these so called NEW units. Some reviewers took pictures. ***** First Review ***** I didn't realize it at the time, but this water fountain is different from the others. Unlike the other brand I purchased a couple of years ago and the others I looked up recently, this brand (Catit) has the filter at the top. Now this difference may seem minor (it did for me at first), but all the other fountains require the water to cycle through the entire unit and the water goes through the charcoal filter just before it gets to the fountain. Now the cat hairs, cat food, dirt and other debris often goes through a small "filter/gate" to get rid of most of the debris. Then cycles eventually to the water pump, the charcoal filter and comes out of the fountain for the cat to drink. This sounds great unless you have hard water. The water goes through all these areas and deposits minerals and calcium ON EVERY SURFACE, including inside the pump. This means having to scrape and rub off this build up every time you clean the unit. THIS IS A LOT OF WORK and a pain when the unit gets old and needs more scrubbing. With the Catit Fountain the filter is at the top before the pump. So all of the water gets filtered first before it goes into the holding tank and the pump. This means a LOT LESS scrubbing to clean the unit. The only thing that the unit needs to be checked and cleaned for is algae (and debris in the filter.) Catit recommends once a week cleaning and this is a breeze compared to the others. It takes 5-10 minutes compared to the 1/2 hour to 45 minutes it took me to clean my old unit once a week. Yes this unit is small and runs out of water in less than a week and it is easy to tip over if you have a "tip over" cat. I do, so I had to eventually I put the unit in an old Dutch oven to keep my silly cat from knocking it over. (I had to get a fountain because she always tipped over any water bowl I gave her, including the metal ones) I don't care that it looks weird because it works and the unit is so much easier to clean! The only other problem is refilling the unit with water. You have to have extremely good ears to hear when the water gets low to the pump or open the unit and check it every few days. Otherwise you will burn out the pump and you will need to purchase a new one. They cost $27, $2 less than a new unit. I've had this unit since June and it continues to work great. I highly recommend this product especially if you live in a hard water area. In my area they used to make jokes about the hard water and the smell! (It used to smell like sulpher, gag!)

I already own the plastic CatIt fountain, but find it super annoying to clean weekly. The basin itself is alright since you can get every spot with a sponge, and the flower topper and green/blue part that the water cascades onto before hotting the filter isn't bad either (once you take off the yellow topper piece that blocks you from passing a bottle brush fully through the flower topper), with only a few stubborn spots where the injection mold flashing leaves a rough line that holds on to mildew. That leaves the filter holder which has 8 sections that need to be cleaned - the underside of each of the 8 "slices" has 90 degree inside corners along each side that always take several passes with both the corner of a sponge and a bottle brush - and even then some red mildew usually stays on until I inspect every crevice and get anything that remains. The filter holder seems to have been designed with no regard for ease of cleaning, which is especially frustrating since it's plastic and non dishwasher safe. So, based on looking at both the pictures of the stainless version here and on the CatIt website, in addition to the cleaning instruction videos on the CatIt website as well as the manuals for the fountains I found there, I decided to get the stainless steel version, hoping that the annoying parts to clean would be metal. Unfortunately, none of the aforementioned listing photos, videos, or pictures in the manuals show the stainless steel version disassembled, so I had no idea what was underneath the stainless steel dish. I could only see that there was a stainless steel component, a plastic basin which is identical, and a flower topper, which isn't the most annoying part to clean. I purchased the stainless steel version hoping that the stainless part would replace the hard to clean filter holder - this is not the case! The stainless dish effectively replaces the green/blue piece that goes between the flower topper and the filter holder. It's only purpose seems to be to provide an intermediate level for water to flow on and off of. It's shaped like an illustration of a black hole and has no crevices or hard to clean areas if you have a bottle brush for the inside of the tube and a sponge for the outer surfaces - and underneath the stainless dish is the same old filter holder with all its hard to clean crevices! The only extremely slight improvement is that the plastic is white on this version, so any red or black mold would be easier to see - whereas the green plastic on my current one is dark enough that I need a bright light to look up close to see if each of the crevices is clean. I've highlighted in a picture of the underside the stubborn spots that take multiple rounds of scrubbing with sponge, bottle brush, rinsing, and double checking under a bright light before repeating until all the mildew is gone. All in all, if you're looking at the stainless version because you want something easier to clean or more sanitary, you could achieve the same effect on the plastic version just by cutting off the top of the piece in between the flower topper and the filter holder. The stainless alternative even has a plastic tube in the middle where it inserts into the middle of the fountain so it's not like you would be missing out on that either. The only thing the stainless version gets you is a metal replacement for one of the easiest to clean pieces of the fountain, and one that isn't even necessary. You would think by now they would have made a metal version of this fountain where you can remove the pump for manual cleaning and chuck the rest of the pieces in the dishwasher. And don't get me wrong, the plastic version is perfectly serviceable, but the stainless version is just not worth it.

I've had this for about seven months now. I initially dinged it slightly for poor instructions, but that is absolutely the only complaint I could come up with about it, even after having it for a while. I have two cats, one who likes to drink from the bathroom sink (cute at first, but gets annoying) and the other who likes to drink from the toilet (eww). They both regularly drink from the Catit fountain - one very daintily and carefully, the other by kind of shoving his head in and going to town. The important point is that they're both drinking regularly, and it's reduced (but not quite eliminated) the demands from the one to turn on the bathroom sink so he can drink from that. What's impressed me, and motivated me to update my review, is how well the fountain is holding up. I fill it with water and rinse the filter out about twice a week. The pump makes a bit of noise when the water is low, which tells me to refill the fountain, but other than that it's still completely silent. The fountain looks as good as it did the when I bought it, and nothing has broken or leaked. The Catit fountain costs enough that I feel that I should be able to expect that it continues to work, but it's nice to find that it does indeed live up to my expectations. I continue to appreciate the USB power supply, which makes it easy to find exactly the right length of cord and it intrinsically safe since it's only 5 volts. The power supply that came with it continues to work well (even when I occasionally steal it to charge a phone). The filter has stayed in serviceable condition extremely well - most of the filter media is just a nonwoven fibrous filter, and rinsing it and letting it dry a couple of times a week has worked very well. It has no evidence of getting slimy or smelling bad, which are the things that would make me suspect that it's growing mold or bacteria. I've thought about cleaning it in a 10% bleach solution (obviously with a very thorough rinse afterwards) but I haven't felt it's necessary. Mostly what I find in the filter is a little bit of cat hair (to be fair, I find that everywhere in my house) and occasionally a bit of food, and it keeps those out of the main water supply and the pump. There's a bit of activated charcoal in there as well, and I'm sure that's saturated with, well, whatever was in the water, but I use bottled water in the fountain so I'm not too concerned about tap water impurities. Overall, I'm pleased with how much the cats use it, and I'm extremely pleased with its reliability. It's an excellent value for the money, and I would recommend it without reservation.

Used this for about 5-6 months and our 3 cats really loved it. In general, I think having a fountain for a pet is worth trying since this encouraged all the cats to drink a lot more water. Ultimately, due to one of our cats having a plastic allergy (took me a while to figure this out), I switched to the PetSafe Drinkwell Pagoda fountain, which is made of ceramic. My suggestion would be to take into consideration if any of your pets have a plastic allergy before purchasing this item. It is a nice fountain, so if you're not sure about your pet, watch around their mouth for hair loss or dark spots from where they contact the plastic. Pros -Very good instructions and packaging. I like how the box doubles as a cat toy with cutouts -Easy to assemble and clean -Some may think this is loud, but compared to other fountains, it's very quiet with minimal pump and splashing noise -I liked the looks of it and it's good quality -Cats really used it and loved it -Inexpensive compared to other fountains on the market Cons -It's made of plastic, which can cause an allergic reaction in some pets. Sure that keeps costs down, but I would gladly pay more for a ceramic version if they made one. As mentioned, I ended up buying a $80 ceramic fountain and shelving this $30 one. -It's hard to gauge the water level in the fountain. I went by the splashing sound, so when it got louder, I would add water until it was relatively quiet again. A nice improvement would be a water level indicator on the side (like you see in some coffee makers). -Something I read in other reviews and noticed myself is that the filter would get a slime/film on it and I'm not sure if this was bad for the cats. I think you really have to clean this thing and run fast moving water through the filter every few days to ensure no negative impacts on your pet. -Another reviewer mentioned black mold and I noticed a black residue in the bottom of the fountain a couple times when I cleaned it. I'm thinking this is not mold as there was no odor. I believe this is actually from the filter somehow as I only saw this after changing the filter. Most filters require they be soaked in water for a period of time before using, so soaking should prevent that black residue. Hope you found this review helpful!

It was sent with a European plug. The cable is a usb so I was able to use a plug I already owned but it would be very annoying for someone else to have to buy a separate plug. The motor in this unit rattles loudly. I returned it and got sent a replacement but the new one also rattles. I've owned this fountain before and had no noise from it so seems like this is a faulty batch.

De katten vinden het leuk

This is my second fountain like this (no fault of the fountain, my cats decided it would be fun to break it). I really like how easy it goes together and comes apart for cleaning. Compared to other fountains this one is a decent price for what you get. I like that there are different settings for how the water comes out, my cats are splashers so having the flower attachment to make little streams stops them from making a mess while still giving them lots of water to drink. The reservoir is pretty big too so I don't have to constantly be adding new water (even tho they drink a lot so I do have to fill it frequently) plus the gentle trickling noise is nice if you like water noises. The pump is very quiet and I can barely hear it even if I'm right up next to the fountain. It's also nice that is has a usb cord so I can plug it into the usb ports on my power bar instead of taking up an entire outlet on the wall. The pump doesn't have a super long life span and on the old one I noticed it was starting to struggle, I don't know if it was getting clogged or just old since it was about 3 years old, but it wasn't sounding the best anymore. but my only complaint is that finding a replacement pump is difficult since the catit store always seems to be sold out and 3rd party pumps are almost as expensive as just getting a new fountain without the assurance that they'll even work strong enough to pump water up the spout. Which is why we bought a new fountain instead of testing out luck with other pumps to put in the old one. All in all I think this is a great fountain and would recommend it for anyone that wants their cats to have running water. You can use it without the filters too but they seem to like the filtered water better than just regular water lol

I miei gatti di 8 e 7 anni l'hanno amato da subito! Devo dire che con questo caldo è veramente una mano santa per loro! L'acqua è sempre freschissima e a disposizione; credo proprio che sia necessaria per il benessere dei mici. Sono pienamente soddisfatta dell'acquisto.

Comprata perché il gatto considera la ciotola d’acqua una proposta offensiva. Risultato: beve di più. E già questo basterebbe. La Catit Flower Fountain sfrutta un concetto semplice ma scientificamente valido: acqua in movimento = interesse del gatto. Il fiore non è solo decorativo, ma crea tre modalità di flusso (goccia, ruscello, flusso calmo) che soddisfano anche il felino più esigente e critico. Parte tecnica (quella seria) - Capacità circa 3 litri, quindi niente rabbocchi continui - Pompa a basso voltaggio, silenziosa se l’acqua è al livello giusto - Filtro a carbone + filtro meccanico: trattiene peli, residui e odori - Componenti smontabili facilmente per la pulizia Parte pratica (quella reale) - Il gatto beve davvero di più - L’acqua resta più fresca rispetto alla ciotola - Rumore quasi nullo (se non gorgoglia, vuol dire che va rabboccata) - Design leggero ma stabile Difetti da sapere (per non idealizzarla) - Il fiore trattiene peli: va lavato spesso - Se il livello dell’acqua scende troppo, la pompa si sente - I filtri vanno cambiati regolarmente, costo da considerare - Non è antigattogiocherellone: qualcuno proverà a smontarla Consigli utili - Tieni sempre l’acqua sopra il minimo: silenzio + durata pompa - Lavala bene ogni 7–10 giorni - Cambia filtro regolarmente o l’effetto “acqua buona” svanisce Conclusione La Catit Flower Fountain non è un gadget carino: è una fontanella studiata bene, che funziona davvero e migliora l’idratazione del gatto. Richiede un minimo di manutenzione, ma in cambio ottieni meno ciotole ignorate e più gatti idratati. Il fiore è decorativo, sì… ma soprattutto convincente.
