The only way of finding the limits of the possible is by going beyond them into the impossible - Arthur C. Clarke
If you are an owner of cats, you know that these creatures like things their own way. That means that just because you put a plate or dish of water on the floor they are not always incluned to drink from it. the answer for some cat owners is to cater to their pet’s whims, which might include allowing them to drink from the faucet, or every faucet! The cat follows you around the house and sits by the sink when you enter the room and begs to drink from the faucet. If you cave to this behavior you will have a long road trying to break the habit. A much better way to deal with this, and also make your life easier at the same time, is to get a cat water fountain.
There are a lot of variations ot these fountains on the market today, and some are geared specifically towards cats. Others are meant for dogs or cats, but they all operate in pretty much the same way. The use of a small submersible pump allows water to be pumped
through the fountain. Depending on the brand you choose, the fountain might feature some type of waterfall arrangement, or perhaps just a falling stream of water.
The Cat Mate Pet Fountain features multiple waterfalls, and this is the only fountain currently on the market that can make that claim. The water is pumped up through the body of the fountain and allowed to fall into a small pool. The water can then fall over a small ledge and down to the next level, repeat that same process again, and finally fall to the main bowl at the bottom of the fountain. Some cats like one particular part of the fountain and will drink from that area exclusively. Others like to experiment with different parts of the fountain. You might find your cat just sitting there staring at the fountain. The point is if you provide an interesting source of water, the cat will drink and you will end up with more free time.
Adding a pet fountain to your home will keep your cat entertained and healthy, and keep him off your back at the same time! Now that is a winning combination!
