Frisco Whimsical Leaf Round Dog & Cat Fountain

Wish I liked it more

This was easy to put together, worked without issue, and my cats enjoyed drinking from it. You can control the strength of the pump, which was nice. I turned it up a little because I wanted it to entice my blind cat to drink more. The reason we had to get rid of it was because it was unsanitary. Even with the filter and cleaning the entire bowl and its components every week, it seemed like the water always got slimy, mildewy, and we even found fly larvae in it once. I don't understand how this gets significantly more dirty than just a regular bowl. Not sure if it was the product's fault or our specific environmental circumstances but we just gave up on trying to keep the water from getting disgusting

unfortunately won’t last

I bought this fountain water for my kitty cats on 6/23 unfortunately It didn’t last and now we're on 8/23. It does look cute and adorable great price but not easy to clean and it will waste a lot of water if you use water gallons like me because it’s not design to empty the bowl completely so you will have to throw out the water every couple days and you can’t add more water because the filter dose not do much of a cleaning to it. Personally I don’t recommended for multiple cats owner’s or even for the health of your cat to drink clean and clear water

Died after 2 months

Purchased this to see if my cats were interested in a fountain before I bought a nicer one. Was hoping to get more time out of it before I replaced, but the motor started to slow down within a month and died within 2. Should have spent a little extra for a better quality fountain.

No to lilypad, no to green ... and then r.i.p.

Consider it charming or annoying: my cats never drank from this in all the time I had it set up (weeks? months?). It was ordered to replace the Frisco round, pump had died and replacement was out of stock. It is not that different: identical set up with a slightly different top. Did they expect frogs to leap from it's depths? Removed the lilypad. No change. This was fountain non grata - it simply didn't exist to cats who functioned fine with the round fountain. Being patient I cleaned and filled one (turns out last) time. The motor is dead. Next I'll wander to a fountain in the $40 range.

good buy!

I worried my skittish boy would be scared to drink out of something new, but even he drinks out of it with no issues. The noise of the little motor is barely noticeable on my linoleum bathroom floor, and i'm thrilled all 3 boys are drinking much more than they used to.

I got this for my two new cats and at first it worked fine, but I unplugged it like the instructions suggest before cleaning and when I plugged it back in nothing happened. I literally got it 3 days ago! I’ve since tried multiple outlets with no luck.

cute but does not last

Bought this to only last a month and a half. The water was never below minimum line so not sure why pump gave out. This is a replacement for another frisco fountain I bought here that lasted much longer but this one did not, so disappointed. Would be good if one could buy replacement pump but I can never seem to find. Will be looking for more reliable fountain.

Not worth it

I was excited to have this and keep clean drinking water and encouraging more h20 for the kitty. Unfortunately im pretty sure you need brita water to start. This bowl, filters, and every thing became slimy in less than a weeks time. It was yellow and yucky. I changed the filter, sponge and really cleaned it each week but not even a week later the bowl itself and everything inside was slimy again. I cleaned the filter before replacing it as per the instructions for the filter but each time with in days it was disgusting and just better off to use the bowl and fill w distilled water. Unfortunately this doesn’t work and id rather just change out the water each week then deal w slimy water and my cat is not stuck w yucky water. This bowl is like a fish tank.

Don’t buy this

I bought this on July 21 this year. After purchasing it, I bought replacement filters. A couple of weeks ago the filter quit working. A total waste of my hard earned money. Very disappointed.

Not worth it

I initially loved this, it’s cute and relatively quiet, and my cat enjoys fountains. but after a month or two, it starts to get dirty extremely fast. even with weekly deep cleaning and changing filters, and using pre-filtered water, everything is still slimy in under a week. now after about 5 months, the pump barely works and is gummed up - and the pump especially is extremely difficult to clean. overall not worth it, now I’m searching for a better fountain that will last.
