Cat Mate Plastic Dog & Cat Fountain, 67.6-oz

This cat fountain is phenomenal in my opinion! It checks all the boxes (or so I thought!) It’s nice and quiet and aesthetically pleasing to look at, but there is a caveat. My adopted kitten still prefers any other running water option over this fountain. This is because I bought the wrong kind of fountain in her opinion…*eye roll* My feline prefers a stream of running water instead of just basic moving water. She drinks out of this as a last case scenario, but comes running any time I turn on a faucet. I still would highly recommend this fountain, but knowing your cats preferences first (a stream, moving or bubbling water) greatly helps its success with your pet.

My monster is a very clever little cat. I think they all are. He had a fountain that he could pull the top off of and tip the fountain over when he was irritated with me; like when I was talking to someone on the phone or in person, anytime he didn't have my full attention actually. He can't do that with this fountain it's easy to clean it's quiet it's purrrrfect..

I bought this to relive our old fountain that died. This one gets moldy a lot faster, but it is easy to take apart and clean out, which would should be doing anyway. All of our pets drink out of this one- our elderly blind cat would not drink out of the old fountain but he likes this one! Our dog prefers the fountain, too! We have to refill it every day, that’s how much they drink!

I love this fountain, it's good and affordable. I took the plunge and was skeptical of the bad reviews. It will make noise occasionally, but I've seen that it only makes noise when the water is starting to running low. As long as it's filled up it's nice and quiet. I've had this now for one month and have had 0 problems so far.

This fountain is terrible. Save yourself a headache and don’t buy it. I thought the height would be great for my three rescue cats. But the noise is terrible. It interrupts my sleeping it’s so loud when they take a drink and it gets just a tiny bit below full. I’m having to add water everyday. I wish I never bought it and as soon as the holidays pass I will be going to the pet store to buy another one that doesn’t make such an annoying noise. Chewy won’t let me upload a video of the noise but you have to keep the fountain at the max fill line or the noise will drive you crazy.

When it runs quiet, it runs quiet. However, more often than not it’s make bubbling and sputtering/spitting sounds that drive the humans crazy. Water is always filled at an appropriate level, everything is securely attached and put together- haven’t found anything to quiet the sound which has been frustrating.

Only docking one point because it’s a little finicky to get all the parts to sit just right when assembling and cleaning, but once they are together they stay together (you’ll understand when you get one). Wonderfully quiet fountain and easy to see lines for filling. Remember about water displacement when turning on and off, to avoid making a mess! Little engine is very powerful! All 4 cats love it, and it’s tip-proof, if you needed that knowledge (I have an avid bowl tipper in my house). Easy to see when it needs to be cleaned.

I value the reviews for the different cat water fountains. My cat is 17 So I was looking for some thing that she didn’t have to bend over too much. Many of the reviews said the different more Expensive fountains were loud . this one was cheaper and is very quiet and is easy to assemble and clean. I do have it on an elevated feed base which I also purchased from Chewy to make it easier for her to get to, and best of all my cat loves it. It is quiet enough with the motor and that it does not scare her. Now I am purchasing one for my daughter‘s cats.

I've had this fountain 3 years now, and the original motor is still going strong. I highly advise using a dishwasher to clean this (we use top rack) - there are too many crevices to clean easily by hand although it can be done. We clean it when it starts getting slimy, which all fountains do. My cat still uses it regularly (preferring the highest point, so we have it rotated sideways against the wall). He doesn't use it when he thinks someone is watching, and prefers having it in a non-busy hallway over the kitchen. Shop around for replacement filters because different sites have better deals.

The point of buying this was to save time and not have to clean out my kitten’s bowl constantly but it doesn’t make a difference. To be honest it takes up more time cleaning this than a normal bowl. It says that you only need to clean it once a month that is a lie. I didn’t clean my Kitten’s bowl for 2 weeks to see how well it do & it grew fungi/mold.
