PetSafe Drinkwell Ceramic Pagoda Fountain - Himalayan Blue

I have 4 cats and they all love the Pagoda Fountain! It's amusing to watch how each has their own method of drinking water out of it; from the very top, the waterfall, the side of the tower, and the bowl itself. FYI, don't forget about changing the filters.

The fountain for animals is Awesome! If you like waterfalls at all the noise is a welcome thing. I read a lot of reviews... The only drawback was the noise. It is very calming! One plus is that the cord attached is a very long one which is helpful. Drink up little ones.

all 5 of our cats love it, though the crotchety senior citizen needed convincing. It really is easy to take apart and clean. It has to be topped off kind of regularly, but it's so easy to do that; we keep it near the kitchen, and any time I'm cooking or getting water for myself, I pour some water into the bigger/lower bowl. Voila, done. The bottom bowl can get kind of gross but only as gross as regular bowls get (dust, kicked dirt), but the top bowl/fountain thing is always clean, much to our cats' delight. And like I already said, super easy to clean. There's also no chance of the ceramic trapping bacteria and irritating our senior cat, who had a bout of feline acne on his chin back when we used a plastic bowl.

Take all filters out, throw them away, use bottled water, and wash it out once a week. Perfect. The filters actually do exactly what they are supposed to do, which is to trap stuff. But they fill up with nastiness so quickly they are not worth it. They get slimly, and oozy, just yukky. Animal saliva gets in the water, I think that is the biggest cause of ickiness, but could be a combination of things. All I know is I use bottled water, thoroughly clean once a week, and I have no issues. Crazy cat drinks far more from this than a bowl, and we are both happy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It was packaged well, and the reason I wanted ceramic is because I believe I can get the calcium deposits off the smooth edges. I love the filter that goes around the pump itself so that the filter doesn't clog with slim/fuz/hair (unlike other fountains that don't have the filter). Easy to fill with water. I like the fact that IF the electricity goes out that our dogs can still drink water from the reservoir (unlike other fountains). It's a new toy to my dogs, so I'm sure it won't take long and my dogs will stop playing in the reservoir. Cleaning – a MUST is completely opening up the pump itself and clean it (with a q-tip) is very important. I think the only bad part about this fountain is that it is heavy and after adding water, it's even heavier when you go to lift it to take it to the sink to wash it. I haven't had it long but think i'll continue to enjoy it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fountain is great! The instructions were very easy to read so assembly was quick and simple. I was also very happy to learn that the basins are dishwasher safe so it is VERY easy to keep clean. It did take my dogs a couple Of days to get used to it but now they drink from it regularly and I love that the pump works perfectly and keeps the water clear. This is a great edition to my home, my dogs are getting clean water and I have a beautiful water feature that adds ambience to my home.

This could be just my cat but she did not like the drinking fountain top. I had an older model Pagoda round top and she is using is with that with this fountain.

I bought this fountain about 6 months ago and my cat loves it, unfortunately the pump is not made of as high quality parts as the fountain. I watched the youtube video and I clean the pump at least weekly. I've never had any build up issues, as it is just one cat that uses it. Despite all that, the pump has slowed down. Also, even though I used the cleaning kit, the front grill broke during cleaning. I wasn't being rough with it, it's made out of a very soft cheap plastic. To have to replace this pump every 6 months is not something I expected when I bought it. Also, the charcoal filters could be majorly improved. It's not a little residue. It leaves a pretty unsightly bathtub style ring in the fountain, even if you pre-rinse. By the time it stops it's almost time to replace it. I don't know why they would choose this type of filter for a fountain that is white inside. It's a shame, otherwise it's beautiful fountain and the perfect height and size for cats to drink out of and dip their paws in.

This is an absolute piece of junk!!! I purchased it three weeks ago and cleaned it every weekend to ensure it was tip top. I have one cat, not a multi cat home and not a lot of saliva. Now, three weeks after purchasing it, the motor has quit. DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM!!!

I have had our fountain for a little over a year. The original pump that came with it only lasted 10 months. I purchased another pump from this site just a few months ago and it already quit working. We change the filter often and keep the water level high. I'm not going to buy a pump every few months.
