cats

I bought one of those last year. It was tipped over and water was all over the floor. So that asshole just has a normal bowl, and he seems content.

My first cat would climb on top of the fish tank and drink the water coming out of the filter. That lid on the tank wasn't very solid, so I was sure he'd fall in at some point. I got him a circulating fountain and he stopped using the fish tank.

We also had a tabby that liked to drink from the kitchen sink. Moving the fountain away from the food helped that a lot.

Same. Or swapping the water more frequently, for mine it changed massively between replenishing the water once a day and doing it three times a day + using a cleaned bowl each time.

But getting a fountain is a much better solution, yeah. Alternatively have a decorative fountain, the little bastards prefer drinking those empty, anyways. 😑

A big plus for the fountain, it holds more clean water and for longer, plus it alerts you by making annoying buzzing and splashing noises when it’s low.

I like that I can leave for a weekend and know the cats have more than enough clean water.
