Cat Mate Pet Fountain Review


I purchased this fountain last month for my kitty Zeus. It was for his 2nd birthday and partly because he kept stealing my drink from the bedside table in the night. I don’t mind sharing, at first it was rather adorable. However Zeus can be a little monster and after a while if the glass was empty or he couldn’t reach what water was in there. He would push the glass off the bed side table and onto the floor in a tantrum! So I decided to look at alternatives to the boring water bowl he seemed to have grown to dislike so much recently. And that’s when I came across this nifty little invention, the Cat Mate Pet Fountain!

Let me tell you why both me and my cat LOVE this pet fountain.


Positives:
  • Simple to set up
  • It has a built in filter to remove chlorine from tap water
  • The filters are cheap and easy to obtain
  • It gives cats three different drinking options -  the pool at the bottom, a smaller one at the top or the running fountain (which Zeus prefers)
  • It’s quiet. I have it in my office and I barely register the noise from the pump
  • Cheap compared to other cat fountains
  • Easy to clean – dishwasher safe and easy to take apart
  • It comes with a long lead which can be unplugged easily from the connector. So there is no need to unplug the whole thing when it comes to cleaning time
  • It keeps the water oxygenated by pumping it around, unlike water from a normal bowl which loses its oxygen content over time
  • The movement of the water ensures it is kept cool
  • Zeus LOVES it
Negatives:
  • It’s not the most visually appealing thing in the world
  • It requires a weekly clean
  • You need to change the filters once a month (more if you have more than one cat)

I wouldn’t ever go back to the normal bowl after having this. The weekly clean doesn’t bother me as I was having to clean his water bowl daily as sitting water seems to get dirtier quicker. So once a week is nothing. I top it up once every 3 days when the water seems to be getting a little on the low side. And no more waking up to water on the floor or the soft sound of his claws going ‘tink tink tink’ on my glass, slowly pushing it towards the floor!

Is your cat as fussy as mine?
