Cat Fountains


In recent times, there is a growing tendency among cat lovers to purchase cat water drinking fountains, which is gradually replacing the conventional cat water dish.
The benefits of the cat fountain is that it regularly recirculates cat water, thereby adding oxygen to the water and makes the process of drinking water much more interesting to cats (It might sound funny but that’s true!) since cats are more drawn to moving water. In fact, if the water is not moving then they will do everything to get it moving.
Moreover, a cat fountain usually assists to improve the overall behavior of the pet cat which has been developed over a period of time. Running water usually satisfies the intense thirst of most animals and in this case it will also reduce the chances of breaking water glasses or bowls as the concerned cat won’t be sticking its paws and knock them over.
Besides Cat Fountains usually needs very little maintenance and hence cut down maintenance cost to some extent. One just needs to review the place for installation. It is necessary to put the fountain near an electrical channel and also do some researches before buying on for their pet cat since the market is littered with such products. It is essential to check out the reserve and opt for a large one so that one does not require filling the reserve more than once in two days. Noise is another issue that is to be taken care of during the purchase of the cat fountain as that can act as intimidating for the cats. The scenario should be like this: There is only sound of running water but no sound from the pump. The whole point is to make the cats comfortable and enjoy the process of drinking water.
