Anyone who owns a cat knows how difficult it is to get them to drink water. Our cats seem obsessed with water that I can’t have a shower or a bath without a furry audience but getting them to drink it is a different story.

 Recently, one of our cats has been diagnosed with reoccurring cystitis which means medication for the foreseeable future, not a problem, however the vet also asked us to try and get more water into his system and recommended a cat water fountain. I didn’t have high expectations of our cat using one but I figured it was worth a go so we quickly got our hands on the Catit Flower Fountain. It was much bigger than I expected, it holds up to 3Litres but its compact and only 7” in diameter, I set it all up, turned it on and was impressed by how quiet it was. It was so quiet in fact my partner didn’t even notice it was in the room until I pointed it out, only after a week did it became more noticeable with a gentle hum but nothing annoying.

There are 3 ways to use the water fountain, remove the entire flower and have a gentle flow over a large flat area, place the white flower in to create a bubbling over the top or clip the yellow centre to produce 6 flowing streams. It was the third option which proved the most popular with my cats, one of them is always drawn to running water and sat next the fountain for 2hours like a proud owner of a brand-new sports car, but it took two days before I caught either of them using it. They now both use it regularly, trotting over to it after they have their biscuits.

The fountain is designed with the cats features in mind, ensuring the cat has access to the water without having their whiskers get wet or touch the side and the constant running water taps into their instinct to drink from streams; at 7.5” it’s the perfect height for your moggy and they even made sure the box it came in can be used as a toy. The entire thing is easy to dissemble for cleaning and the filter helps keep out all the cat hairs and dust that might get into the pump. My only dislike is the flower design, I worry that its cutesy design will attract my nephew’s attention as it looks like a toy, I would prefer a simpler design, maybe just all in white but that’s my personal preference.

As a drinking fountain for my cats I can’t fault it, I am so happy to see my poorly boy drinking regularly as it will have such a positive impact on his health, excellent value for money. RRP £25
