Cat-It LARGE Fresh & Clear Drinking Fountain (100 oz) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My five cats love this fountain! No more trips to the sink to turn on the tap for my feline friends. It's much quieter than the Drinkwells I used to have. I bought two Catit fountains several months ago and I'm very impressed. They really do hold a lot of water. I only have to refill them once a week. Maintainence is a snap! Everything comes apart easily for a once-a-month cleaning (including the pump!)keeping them running smoothly and prevents mold and mineral deposits. The filters are easy to change and inexpensive.
The water flows quietly and smoothly over the dome, provided the fountain is on a level surface. At initial start-up and after refilling it may be necessary to "massage" the dome to break any "static cling" that would prevent smooth-flowing water. The one on the ceramic tile floor is a bit off-level so it doesn't flow as smoothly or as soundlessly as the one on the hardwood floor. But it's a LOT quieter than the Drinkwell fountains. A cushioned placemat underneath the fountains helps catch any kitty-spills and makes the fountains virtually sound-free! I like the bubble design and it doesn't take up much room. I'm very happy with this product.

Catit Fresh & Clear Drinking Fountain for Cats and Puppies Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have had two of these now for a year. I purchased them despite the flurry of postings saying the pumps failed. I disected the pump on the #2 unit when it quit and have a solution for this issue. The pump is a Permanent magnet rotor with AC stator, so the only two things that can kill the pump is a broken winding (very unlikely as the assembly is potted) and the rotor/impellor binding up. The failures are likely due to salt build up as was the case with mine. Carefully prying the rotor\impellor out after unsnapping the covers they were soaked in distilled (aka "White") vinegar, a grocery store item. Soaked for 2 hours and then resaaembled after rinsing. Works fine! Now with the #1 unit I tried a different approach. I got a 6" deep container and stuck the pump in the bottom and filled the container 4" deep with the vinegar and plugged it in. Let it run for an hour. Pump came out sparkling clean! If the pump is siezed, one will have to pull the impellor assembly out and do the soak routine.

Catit Fresh & Clear Small Drinking Fountain Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)For two years, I used the large Hagen Catit "bubble-dome" water system (that they still make and sell). The pump gave out on it, and when I went to order a new one, I saw this new, smaller version and gave it a try.
My cat was already used to drinking from a dome fountain, so he immediately adjusted to this new model. Although this version holds less water than the old version (64oz vs. 100oz), the water seems to evaporate more slowly, and thus it lasts almost as long between refills (although I live in Arizona, where things evaporate very quickly). The actual pump is exactly the same as the one found in the old model, and it is very quiet (although you can hear a slight "hum").
My only complaint is with the filter. Inside of this device is a circular filter that is supposed to fit snugly against the inside walls. The water comes up from the bottom of the feeder, out the top of the dome, then drips down the sides of the dome and back inside through some holes around the outside edges. The problem is that the filter doesn't quite reach the edges of the feeder, and when the water drips back inside, much of it flows through the small space between the filter and the inside wall of the feeder. I wish the filter was made slightly larger in order to minimize this gap and to make sure that all of the water flows through the filter.
*****************
Update: After a brief power outage, I realized one important thing: Unlike many of the other water fountains for pets, if the power goes out, there is NO WATER available for the pet to drink from this model. If you leave for a day or two, or are in an area that may get power outages, be sure to leave out a separate dish of water.
