Cat Water Fountains Offer Superior Solutions

views the best pictures


Whether prowling inside or out of doors during broad daylight or under the cover of night, most cats are very active creatures. That's why cat water fountains offer a superior solution to many potential health and hydration concerns that a standard cat water dish can pose to your pet.
Cat water fountains also feature outstanding convenience for discerning cat owners. An automatic pet fountain provides round-the-clock access to free-flowing water, which can protect your pet from kidney ailments possibly due from a lack of proper hydration.
Most cat drinking fountains feature open access from at least three sides at once, which allows more than one cat to drink simultaneously. And the curiosity of running water from a cat water fountain will naturally attract your pet to easily drink from its well.
I wish I'd known about these pet fountains years ago when one of my favorite pets was still with us. She was a dark gray female named "Shadow." Sometimes I would find her water dish empty even after filling it within the last 24 hours. There were also times when our family was away on a trip so we had the neighbor supply water for Shadow in a standard dish. Shadow sure could have used a cat water fountain then. And I'm positive that our neighbor would have appreciated the convenience as well.
Although many consider that hand washing your cat water fountain may to be the proper method for cleaning it, the majority of these fountains offer a dishwasher safety feature.
Personally, I prefer a waterer that is compatible with an automatic dishwasher because of the steam factor within the appliance. Steam is hot enough to destroy any bacteria growing along any exposed surface of the fountain during the dish drying cycle, especially the bacteria that contribute to feline acne.
The water storage tank supplied can vary in weight. Plastic fountains tend to be the lightest and easiest to move around your home. Stainless steel and ceramic cat drinking fountains are heavier and can prove much more durable. The size of a model's storage tank can vary as well with the larger ones providing for the hydration of several cats.
Three of the most popular cat water fountains feature plastic, ceramic or stainless steel construction. Each model has specific pros and cons when considering which fountain makes the best fit for your pet as well as your household.
