Esta fuente es muy útil para mis gatos. Tenemos 3 gatos en casa y con dos fuentes es suficiente para que se mantengan hidratados. Esto principalmente es para ayudarles a tener sus riñones sanos.

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.

Estaba muy reticente a esta fuente, no por la fuente en sí, sino porque mi gata es muy rarita y no lleva nada bien los cambios. Pues ha sido un acierto total :)No puedo estar más contenta.La fuente no hace nada de ruido. Obvio que si la dejas a un nivel bajo, hace ruido, pero si está relativamente llena, ni se oye.Había leído que el agua sale "babosa".... pues en el mes de uso que llevamos, a mí no me ha pasado. Claro que me preocupo por mi gata, y limpio la fuente y la relleno cada semana (dos semanas sin cambiar el agua, como he leído por ahí, me parece un poco guarrada, la verdad, que esto te ayuda, pero no te exime de ocuparte de tus animales).El agua está limpia y con buen sabor. Sí, la he probado para ver si el filtro afectaba en algo, pero para nada. Lo que sí es importante es limpiar el filtro muy bien antes de ponerlo en funcionamiento.Y por lo demás, encantada.Os dejo el truco que yo usé con mi gata para que empezara a usarla (ella no es de las que beben del grifo y más bien le daba miedo al principio): le retiré su cuenco, compré una golosina líquida y le fui poniendo puntitos en los pétalos, para que ella los cogiera y se diera cuenta de que es agua fresquita. En quince minutos, ya estaba bebiendo de la fuente. Probad los distintos modos, porque mi gata, por ejemplo, con la flor con el botón amarillo pasa, ella bebe sin el botón pero tuve que ir probando. Ese mismo día, le puse en el agua un par de golosinas líquidas y cuando ya estaba habituada a beber, en un par de días, le cambié todo el agua por agua limpia y hasta hoy. Así que si tenéis gatos exquisitillos, como el mío, no tengáis miedo, se acostumbran con un poquito de paciencia.Agua limpia, fresca y abundante, lo que me permite irme de casa unas cuantas noches sin tener que estar preocupada por el agua de la peque, y más con estos calores.

Ein schöner und besonders leiser Katzenbrunnen.Wir haben nach einer guten Alternative zu unserem jetzigen Katzenbrunnen aus Porzellan gesucht. Dieser hat zwar gute Dienste geleistet ist aber relativ schnell trotz regelmäßiger Reinigung verkalkt und war sehr laut.Der Katzenbrunnen ist aus Plastik und sieht gut aus. Der Aufbau erfolgte problemlos und bereits durch Mithilfe unserer beiden neugierigen Bengalkatzen.Der Brunnen wurde gut angenommen und beide Katzen haben direkt daraus getrunken, sowohl so wie sie es sollen als auch mit der Pfote.Da der Brunnen aus Plastik ist und entsprechend trotz Wasser relativ leicht ist, ist es empfehlenswert eine rutschfeste Unterlage zu nutzen.Wir reinigen den Brunnen fast täglich, um diesen so gut wie möglich sauber zu halten.Dadurch haben die Katzen bisher auch keine Probleme mit Bakterien oder daraus folgenden Durchfall. Der Filter sollte ca. alle 30 Tage ausgewechselt werden.Besonders überzeugt hat uns die Lautstärke. Es ist bereits der dritte Brunnen den wir gekauft haben und mit Abstand der leiseste. Man gewöhnt sich zwar nach einer Weile an die Lautstärke, doch nervt das Plätschern nach einer Weile doch wieder, insbesondere da der Brunnen bei uns im Wohnzimmer steht und man sich dort doch recht viel aufhält.Entsprechend können wir den Katzenbrunnen nur empfehlen. Wer dafür sorgen möchte, dass Katzen ausreichend trinken, sollte auf jeden Fall fließendes Wasser zur Verfügung stellen und das Wasser ebenfalls nicht direkt neben das Essen stellen. Unsere Katzen trinken gut und regelmäßig aus dem Brunnen und haben diesen direkt sehr gut angenommen. Das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis ist ebenfalls sehr gut, allerdings muss man dazu sagen, dass wir den Brunnen zu einem Aktionspreis gekauft haben. Auch im Vergleich zu anderen Brunnen, z.B. aus Porzellan, die meist über 50€ kosten, ist eine sehr gute und bezahlbare Alternative.

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.
