End Toilet Water Drinking for Good

Cats love to drink fresh, running water. When you really think about it, who doesn’t want a glass of fresh, clean water?

It is only natural for kitty to be drawn to running water, be it from a toilet, a faucet or even a freshly poured glass!

It’s like your cat knows the water is fresh and is drawn to it!

If you have caught your kitty trying to slurp up water or run excitedly to the faucet for his next “fix” then you might want to seriously consider investing in a cat water fountain.

How Does It Work?

Water fountains are wonderful gadgets that pour out a constant stream of running water for your cat.

They basically recycle the water via a pump and the water is constantly streamed into a holding container below. You might be thinking that the water gets dirty eventually or dusty right?

These water fountains contain filters inside them that work to clean and purify the water so that your cat gets fresh tasting water always.

All you really need to do is make sure the fountain is filled regularly to an adequate level so the water can continue to cycle through the pump.

What are the Benefits of a Water Fountain?

Owning a fountain has quite a few advantages. One of the main ones is that it keeps your cat hydrated and really encourages him to drink more water which is important at all times, especially when they get older.

A fountain just makes your job a little easier because all you really need to do is worry about keeping the water level full.

Your cat will also love it due to the constant stream of water. This means that he is less likely to drink water from your toilet!

No one really and truly wants their pet drinking toilet water no matter what they say. Why? After they drink from there, they run up to you to greet you by licking you or themselves, do you really want those germs on your or your pet?

It doesn’t matter how clean your toilet bowl is, it’s just not sanitary.

A cat water fountain will be the perfect solution to keep your kitty drinking and keep him off the toilet bowl habit.

You can also help out here by always keeping your toilet lid closed.

Water fountains are also great for preventing urinary tract infections in kitty! If you encourage a lot of water intake your cat will be less likely to get UTI’s which is a good thing.

Not only is a fountain a nice little treat for your kitty, it will also keep him healthy. It’s a win win solution for both of you!
