when replacing the filter do I need to let it cycle for 20 minutes again like the first time?

Answer by edrbMay 03, 2022
I usually soak the filter in clean water for 20 mins before putting it into place and that has worked well!

Anyone have a solution for slime on everything? I use filtered water from the refrigerator and the filter that comes with the unit but everything is slimy within a couple of days. I have to take it apart every 3 days and thoroughly clean it with soap and water.

Answer by ChewyOct 10, 2019
The thick, slimy residue on your dog's bowl is called biofilm. If you have many pets or an extra-drooly pup, their saliva can cause that slimy buildup. Your dog’s mouth and tongue contain bacteria that bind together and stick to the surface of a bowl after they have licked it.

How often should the filter be changed?

Answer by ChewyOct 19, 2022
For one cat, it is recommended to replace the filter monthly. For two or more cats, you may need to replace the filter more regularly if it becomes blocked. A blocked filter will cause poor operation and pump failure.

how loud is it?

Answer by ChewySep 07, 2018
Customers have reported that this fountain runs quietly and may make a low humming noise.

With four thirsty cats, I change this out every other day. Sometimes they drink from the top little bowl, sometimes from the main dish. They could even drink from the top big bowl but I don't know if they do. It's easy to clean well and I've put it in the dishwasher before with no problem. It's simple to operate and that's probably the main thing I love about it. There's a place in front for a finger to help pick it up. There's the adapter on the very bottom, easy to remove for cleaning. Replacement filters are a few dollars for two and I have them on auto-ship every three weeks. I would definitely buy this again.

Purchased mainly for the filtration aspect vs fountain and even after turning the flow rate up higher it does not filter well as the debris builds up quickly and stays stationary in the fountain even while running. Would not recommend if you want an actual fountain for filtration.

It seems like every 3 or 4 days, the water would get really super cloudy and feel slimy. I had to resort to something else after about 3 weeks of consistently changing it out every couple days. The product needs better filtration system than what it's got.

Noisy

Super easy to clean, which I love. Noisy as soon as it gets just the tiniest bit lower than maximum full, which is annoying. I will be replacing this right away

Super easy to clean, which I love. Noisy as soon as it gets just the tiniest bit lower than maximum full, which is annoying. I will be replacing this right away. The noise doesn't bother the cats; they like the fountain. Unfortunately the noise for me is too distracting and annoying. And I think it must be not working optimally when it makes the noise.

Garbage - brand and fountain

I bought this fountain with replacement filters direct from the manufacturer. My cat used it for the first month but when I went to replace the filter, the "new"

I bought this fountain with replacement filters direct from the manufacturer. My cat used it for the first month but when I went to replace the filter, the "new" ones are completely different, lower quality than the original. My cat now refuses to drink from the fountain, I have cleaned it multiple times, changed the water, used filtered water. Irritating that this is now a useless product without quality filters and annoyed the company would sell such garbage

Oliver Jackson will only drink water while it's moving. This works perfectly for him so he doesn't have to pull the bowl to make the water move (splashing it all over the floor!)

Would love to have given this a 5 star, just couldn’t. Cats enjoyed drinking from it. Quite as long as you don’t let the water level get too low. Biggest problem

Would love to have given this a 5 star, just couldn’t. Cats enjoyed drinking from it. Quite as long as you don’t let the water level get too low. Biggest problem is cleaning. At first was using toothpicks to clean in the crevices. Then bought one of those small small brush still had to use a toothpick to get in the small corner. Lasted 4 years and the pump finally gave out. With all that I’m still thinking about getting another one. Every other one’s we tried (4) cats haven’t like them.

Paw-some product

Multiple cats are able to drink water at same time. Easy to set-up, clean and change filters. A winner!

Sleek appearance and my cat was willing to drink from it but - just like another reviewer said - it is very difficult to move without spilling a lot of water. I’ve stopped using it. Can’t recommend buying it. Lots of other good models available instead with separate water storage and drinking levels.

I have purchased more than one type of fountain over many years to try out. This one has always been the best one for my cats. I like that the water is accessible even if you turn off the water fountain. This is my 3rd Cat Mate and will continue to use this product. Filters are easy to change. It's a great product.
