Last month, my wife found an ad for a water fountain that she wanted to buy. She read to me all the great benefits of the miracle device. When she finished, I thought two things:
- Since this information was from an advertisement, it must be true.
- How is this product different from the other three water fountains we bought and our cats didn’t like?
I said the second one out loud, which didn’t go over well. She was determined to buy it so I told her I would look for it on Amazon. I very much would prefer to support a small business over Amazon, but, on the other hand, I worry about giving unknown businesses my debit card number.
The fountain in question is called FEELNEEDY Stainless Steel Automatic Pet Water Dispenser. The all caps are theirs. The link above is an affiliate link because, why not, but I don’t recommend it unless you know your cat is into water fountains.
It uses a battery and only runs when your cat is nearby, unless it is plugged into power and you choose the continuous run option. Frankie drank from it shortly after I put it down, The paper towel is because I spilled it when I set it down.

Since I replaced their water bowl with this fountain on March 20, more than two weeks ago, I’ve seen Frankie drink out of it four times, including once this morning. I’m not sure I should count this morning because the battery was dead and no water was flowing. During that time, I have seen Frankie drink from the water bowl in our bedroom almost every day.
Floki, on the other hand, has never drunk from the fountain, at least not that I have seen. That might not be the fault of the fountain since I haven’t seen him drink from the bedroom bowl, either.
For now, I will keep the fountain and see how it goes. What do you think? Do your pets have a fountain?
