Stainless Steel Pet Fountain: Article On Ceramic Cat Fountains

By Angela Motionar


Teaching our cat to drink plenty of water regularly will guarantee good health and reduce the possibility of common health ailments resulting from lack of drinking water. Some examples are dehydration, developing kidney stones, and etc. The best way to do is to introduce to him the drinking water fountain. Cats as we all know are very active in nature; they love to play with small running objects when they notice one.

The flowing water from a cat water fountain will surely attract the attention of virtually any curious cat that recognizes them. This will eliminate the dreaded task of teaching them on how to use it but they will discover it on their own. Cat drinking fountains are ideal for small pet dog or cat owners who are working and constantly travelling.

Based on the model you ordered and how big the water reservoir is, you can just fill it up first thing in the morning and it will be adequate enough to take good care of your pets the whole day or perhaps a couple of days until next refill. If you are planning to take a short holiday, say two or 3 nights, you can pair it with an automatic cat feeder and fill it up before leaving them. Now you can take advantage of your holiday without worrying about your favorite dogs and cats. The pet drinking fountain will guarantee that they have refreshingly clean water continuously.

The drinking water fountain operates by distributing the water from the water tank by using a small submersible pump. The water then moves through a series of water filters to isolate the water contaminants such as dirt and other impurities that come in contact with the water. It actually has a combo of two water filters, a micron filter for unknown substances that are blended with the water and a charcoal filter to take out bad flavor and odor. What they get is a crystal clear healthy drinking water whenever they need it. In order to keep the proper functioning of the water fountain, the filters needs to be replaced on a regular basis. These filters can be purchased in most pet suppliers or in the store where you bought the product.

When choosing the best pet drinking fountain make sure you consider the following: One is the size of the product, depending on how many pets you have in your house, choose one that have large enough water tank for all of them to avoid refilling it every now and then. Second is, you must check the water pump, most people who previously own a drinking fountain are complaining about a noisy pump. You should ask a demo first and pay attention to the water pump, if it is shaking excessively or it creates a lot of noise then don't buy it. When you buy a brand new unit it always come with a set of filters and sometimes you also get an additional filter for spare, totally free. If it's not bundled it is recommended to buy a spare filter for an instant replacement when the old one expires.

Maintaining the well being of our four legged friend truly depend on us, our pets do not possess the ability to tell us what they need. They are only relying on us when we are going to supply them the water they need. Sometimes we are too busy and we forget and neglect them, pushing them to find water on their own and who knows where. If you really care for your cat, do them a favor and purchase a cat drinking fountain.
