Cats love drinking fresh, clean, running water. Recirculating cat fountains were supposed to be the solution, but they never delivered too many cats dont like drinking from them, and all cat parents hate cleaning them. Finally, there’s a cat fountain that provides your kitty with clean, cool, fresh water whenever they want it and you never need to clean it!
Cats are notoriously finicky about their water, and need encouragement to drink enough. Thats why cat fountains are so popular: theyre supposed to provide cats with running water and make hydration more enjoyable. But there are problems with traditional fountains, and thats why there are still a lot of kitties out there who would rather drink from your cup or the toilet! The two main issues with traditional fountains are the necessity for regular cleaning, and the freshness of the water. Lets find out how you can provide your cat with fresh water theyll love to drink, without you ever having to clean a fountain again!
TOP THINGS CATS WANT FROM THEIR WATER
Not only do cats have a low thirst drive, but they’re also very particular about the water they drink. As any cat parent can attest, kitties love running water. Its fresher, cleaner, and smells better than stagnant water that might contain pathogens. Cats also prefer cool to warm water, which is another reason they prefer running water from the tap to water in a bowl. They also like running water because its fun to play with, and they’re instinctively attracted to the sound it makes.
CAT PARENTS JUMPED ON THE RECIRCULATING FOUNTAIN BANDWAGON
When recirculating fountains debuted as a solution, cat parents jumped on board. Their cats werent drinking enough water, and the fountains promised to change that. After all, fountains provide clean, cool, fresh, inviting water. Or do they? If cats could talk, theyd say the water in their fountains isnt as great as we think it is. In fact, its nowhere near as clean and fresh as theyd like.
RECIRCULATING CAT FOUNTAINS HAVE A BIOFILM PROBLEM
Traditional cat fountains recirculate water. Even though the waters moving, theres still an opportunity for bacteria to grow. When your cat drinks from the fountain, food, saliva, and bacteria get into the water. Given time, this bacteria can grow into a community called biofilm. Thats the slimy film you find on water bowls and fountains, as well as shower tiles and pond rocks.
Biofilm can also contain other pathogens that wreak havoc on your cats health. When your cat drinks biofilm, it can cause:
- UTIs
- Periodontal disease
- Vomiting
- Diarrhea
- Chin acne
This is why its so important to clean recirculating cat fountains regularly.
TRADITIONAL CAT FOUNTAINS CAN CONTAMINATE FRESH WATER (EVEN WHEN YOU CLEAN THEM)
The problem with cleaning fountains is that most cat parents dont learn how to do it properly. You have to be very thorough, and that means disassembling the entire fountain including the pump assembly and disinfecting all the components with tweezers and cotton swabs.
Otherwise, the bacteria that get into the internal parts automatically contaminate fresh water as soon as it circulates through the pump. Once that happens, the promise of fresh, clean water goes out the window, and your cats left meowing at you for running water every time you turn on a tap.
