YES! YES! YES!
Date: April 15, 2007
"This is our second drinking fountain. We sold another brand of drinking fountain we had bought previously in a garage sale because it was too cumbersome to set up.
The Drinkwell comes preassembled. Just pop the filter in and add water and plug it in. The white one has a blue tinge to it and is made of good quality plastic. AND it has an ample large drinking resevoir. It's easy to adjust the water flow.
My cats have been frisky and playful since they got their drinkwell. I love it! I cant wait to grow some hydroponic grass in their drinking well too."

Great Product - My Cat Loves It!
Date: June 27, 2006
"My kitty likes to lap at the running water in the bathroom sink; so I figured I'd buy him his own bowl that he could drink from without getting into trouble for being on the counter.
I did a lot of research before selecting a water fountain for my cat b"

Drinkwell Pet Fountain for Cats

"I am a veterinarian and a proud cat owner. A lot of cats are prone to kidney and bladder problems so one of the most important things you can do to keep your cat healthy is to increase its water comsumption. Most cats prefer to drink running water so this"

great purchase
Date: November 4, 2009
"My cats love this. This is a great product for any animal to use. We used to give our cats water in a cat bowl for them but it always used to get so dirty everyday. And i would have to change their water everyday. Now our cats have nice fresh clean water for them drink and the best part is it dont get dirty. They really like to drink water and never used to drink before. I also like how the motor is quiet for them so they wont be scared of it. How it provides nice clean water. Also thats its easy to clean and easy to refill with water."

LOVE IT !!!
Date: November 3, 2009
"My cat will only drink from the running faucet. This is a problem when you have well water. When I first put this out on the counter all he did was sniff at it. It took about 1/2 day of me refusing to turn on the faucet for him to try drinking from the fountain. It took a little training but it was worth it now he Loves it! I also Love it. No more remembering to turn the faucet off after he has had his fill. This thing is great. Worth every penny!!"

Not a fan
Date: October 10, 2009
"I don't get the apeal to this fountain. It's the loudest one (I've tried 3 brands) I have used, I can hear it right now and I'm on-line checking out fountain's so I can stomp all over this one and have some quiet back in my kitchen! The small Catit is the best but I can't find it in stores."

Life Saver!
Date: September 27, 2009
"My kittens absolutely refused to drink water. I was desperate for them to do so so that they could avoid early renal issues and a shortened life because of it. My Vet recommended that I try a water fountain type of waterer. I chose this product because not only does it circulate water trough a filter, but also the water falls into the bowl- like water from a faucet into a sink. At first, my kittens were minimumly interested in it. But within a week, they now drink more that I thought they ever would. I may need to purchase the larger capacity reservoir soon- which I will very gladly do. This product is GREAT! I highly recommend trying it- especially if your cats are like mine and just refused to drink water out of a traditional bowl. Thanks, Drinkwell, for making this perfect product- you are a real life-saver!"

Really like the fountain.
Date: September 21, 2009
"My cat seems to drink more since the water is coming from the fountain and in motion. My only negative comment is that the pump is loud. It scared her away at first until she got accustomed to the noise."

Excellent Product

"It use to be hard to get my cats to drink water... not anymore; they love this fountain. It was easy to assemble and clean. The reservoir saves me from refilling it more often."

nosy & hard to clean
Date: August 15, 2009
"I had a Petmate water fountain and when my room mate broke it I switched to this one because it had an extended water tank you can put on. However My cat is very sensitive to noise so does not like to drink from it because the free falling water makes too much noise for her. Also it is very hard to clean all of the nooks & crannies to make sure you get it completely clean. In the end by cat would rather drink from my dripping sink."

Best water bowl ever!
Date: July 20, 2009
"My JRT has finally stopped drinking out of my Energy mug, I got the extra 50 oz capacity & my 2 pups drink that everyday. I use RO water & run it through my RGardens voluminizer & they love it. I has a pleasant sound, too."

Great for some cats
Date: June 21, 2009
"The quality of this fountain seems to be quite good. The setup is relatively easy; the only flaw is that the motor must be pulled out and this can be quite difficult at times.
The fountain does not make a lot of noise and has an adjuster for the level of water flow. I have had no problems with leaking or splashing. The only problem I have had was that my cat will go nowhere near the fountain when it is running...even on the lowest setting. My cat is quite the chicken so I am not shocked. As long as your cat is not overly skittish or is interested in water...they should love it."

Worth the money
Date: June 1, 2009
"I bought this a week and a half ago. No assembly which was great. We bought it for our cats because they loved drinking out of our dripping faucets, but then we got the plumbing fixed so they didn't have fresh water. they were afraid of it when it was one so for 2 days we unplugged it so they could get used to it. After that we turned it back on and one by one they started drinking from it and now they love it. They are definitely drinking more water now. Would definitely recomend this product."

I wouldn't buy it
Date: April 30, 2009
"If you have probelms with arm and hand strenth don't buy this. I can't get the motor out to clean it. I have fybromalgia which makes it difficult to use my arms and hands. I can't get my hands into the very small place they give you to get the motor out. I'm going to have to stop using it since I can't clean it. Also if have have large fingers you will have great difficulty getting the motor out."
