Catit Water Fountain which I bought 3 years ago
I'm the lazy kinda person, especially when it comes to providing clean water 24 7. Cats need fresh and clean water to drink. And since my cats love touching the water before drinking, sometimes their fur, dirt, ants, bugs and what so ever goes into the water bowl. I remembered of changing their water about 6 times a day. That is damn tiring!
So I bought Catit Water Fountain by Hagen for RM87 with free dish bowl which I can hookup beside the water fountain. That was way back in 2007. Now the price rose up to RM102. Lucky me!
Let me share you the pros of the water fountain:-
1. Obviously you don't have to change the water bowl 6 times a day like me.
2. The water fountain allow us to store 3 liter of water, which last for 3 days for 12 cats.
3. There is water filter, so what your cat drinks is clean water. All those dirt, fur, what so ever things is filtered.
4. The water is circulated to maintain its freshness. Many cats drink more when they are around "running water".
5. It is a good tool to promote adequate water intake. Good investment for your cat's health too.
6. Good quality & very solid. I've used it for 3 years, every single part is still working. The water pump, the plug etc. Well, that actually depends on how you take care of it. If you make it as a football, of course it'll not last that long.
The cons:-
1. A throat chocking price.
2. When the water in the water fountain storage is empty, there will be a loud noise coming out from the fountain. Sound of the fountain's pump pumping without the water. But it's a good alarm for you to fill it up.
3. You need to change the filter monthly. Cleaning the filter is kinda messy because when you brush out dirt from the filter, you need to do it gently. Preferable using old toothbrush. Else the filter layer may come out, and all the carbon tablets may falls out of the filter.
