If you've followed us for anytime, you know we've tried water fountains. They can be great to entice cats to drink more.
But.....previous ones have been terrible to clean. So many finicky parts. Mom would get so frustrated.
Then there is this cat:
Chanel actually has killed most of the ones we've tried. The last one she stood on the bubbling spout until the motor died.
However, mom was on vacation a couple of weeks ago and noticed her friend (Julie - Cupcake's mom) had a box on her table. Oh look a fountain. They unboxed it and mom was intrigued.
It was an Elfin Fountain. Mom had seen ads but never looked into it since there is currently a no fountain rule.
This was different though. The motor was in the base - not in the container itself. This means minimal parts and everything but the base can go in the dishwasher. And the base is chargeable so it can be cordless.
Yep....mom bought one.
It charged quickly, easy to put together. Nice size water container. Quiet and easy to use. We are going to need a bigger mat. And milage may vary on how often you need to fill it.
The only real problem so far is Chanel is part raccoon. She loves to stick her feet on the basin. Luckily she can't block the spout or the entire basin so the motor is safe. But she flings water ALL over. The top stainless basin also gets dirty faster here but it unclips really easy to get rinsed off.
It's been running for a week now and we all really like it. Some more than others...
