10 Reviews: Best Water Fountain for a Cat (Apr 2024)

The Zeus H2EAU Drinking Fountain performed well as a high-capacity pet water fountain appropriate for houses with many animals for many of the same reasons: It’s simple to clean and install, operates quietly, and maintains a clean look. It’s large enough that it only has to be refilled once a week for a couple of medium-sized dogs, or potentially one huge one. Despite its greater capacity, it only requires 24 ounces of water to operate.

Got for my sister's birthday for her Malamute and cats. They love it and find it really helps with keeping water available all day!!! The cats absolutely love it and the dog took to it quickly!!

This is the greatest choice if you want a fountain for your pet as well as your garden without spending a lot of money. This fountain would look excellent in your house with a few ducks surrounding it. This Duck Family Solar Power Resin Patio Fountain Garden Design is made of resin and includes an LED light so you can not only enjoy the calming sound of flowing water but also light up your nighttime yard. Since it’s not too tall, your pet can directly drink from it.

The Veken Pet Fountain is your best bet if you have more than one cat. It carries 84 ounces of water and comes with a long-lasting silicone mat to keep a high-traffic area dry and clean. The Veken Pet Fountain includes a triple filtering system with one cotton, one activated carbon, and one ion-exchange layer, and it comes with three replacement filters. This cat drinking fountain is very quiet and has a long-lasting, low-consumption pump.

I bought this for my moms cat because he loves running water. Her cat loved it so much so I bought one for my cat. It’s been out of the box for five seconds and he’s already drinking from it. It’s so cute! Very quiet. And holds a lot of water!

The Catit Flower Fountain is exceptional in practically every way. It’s easy to refill, and clean; it filters water and keeps it clean while running quietly, even when it’s running short on water. Plus, look at that adorable flower! You may change the flow from a flat top with water pouring over the surface to a slow drip or flow with the flower installed. Furthermore, the Catit is one of the simplest fountains to assemble, with just a few sturdy parts.

My cat loves this thing. Sound of the water attracts her. Use coffee filters instead of buying more expensive replacement filters. I replace paper filter once every few days.

If quiet and simplicity of use are your main priorities, and money isn’t an issue, the PetKit Eversweet 2 is worth considering. This drinking fountain switches off the pump automatically when the fountain is empty (which would cause a motor burnout in all other versions), includes an LED indicator that tells you when it’s time to replace the filter and is the quietest fountain on this list. The Eversweet additionally includes an optional “Smart” mode that alternately turns on and off the water.

I had another cat fountain - the one with the flower on top. It was SO loud that sometimes at night I would unplug it while watching TV. It also got slimy pretty fast. This new fountain is whisper quiet. I love it. Took my cats all of about 3 minutes to walk over and start drinking. I love it!

We recommend the Beacon Pet Cat Water Fountain if you’re on a tight budget. This round item is composed of stainless steel and long-lasting, BPA-free plastic. It holds 81 ounces of water and has three flow modes: waterfall, bubble, and gentle fountain. This kitty drinking fountain also includes an LED indicator light that flashes blue when the water is full and red when it is empty. The hues entice cats, prompting them to drink more.

I like this water fountain because it is quite. I assembled it easily & it doesn’t take up a lot of room. Our cat loves water & he not only drinks from the fountain but paws in the water too! I am VERY satisfied and happy I purchased this!! Great product!!

We recommend the Pioneer Pet Raindrop Fountain if you prefer stainless steel. It has a removable charcoal filter and provides a constant stream of fresh, attractive water for maximum hydration. The Raindrop Fountain is inherently resistant to the development of bacteria and mold. It’s also simple to keep clean and dishwasher-safe. Move the spout to the middle to ensure that everything is exactly aligned for smooth flow and minimum noise!

I have had 3 of these at different times. Swear by it. It takes 2-3 min to give it a good cleaning - but my cats are very worth it. And it is a pleasure to watch them drink filtered water. It's a great fountain!

Consider the PetSafe Drinkwell Pagoda if you want to spoil your cat. This attractive square fountain has a capacity of 70 ounces and offers your cat clean, flowing water. This product is non-porous and naturally antibacterial since it is made of stylish glazed, high-density porcelain. It’s also simple to clean and top-rack dishwasher safe. The Drinkwell Pagoda has an activated carbon filter with a foam layer on top. This improves the taste and fragrance of tap water while also eliminating hair and other impurities.

Our cat, Smokey adores her fountain! It is just the right size for a full-grown cat as well as a smaller cat. It keeps a steady supply of water available, and is a complement to her feeding area. And the family enjoys the soothing sound.

The Cepheus 360 Pet Fountain is another standout option. It’s reminiscent of a crème Brulee ramekin, with its round, riveted ceramic shape. This cat fountain contains up to 70 ounces of water and has three free-falling jets to tempt your kitty to drink. Ceramic is a naturally robust and scratch-resistant material that is also eco-friendly. It may be cleaned with a cloth or dismantled for thorough cleaning. This drinking fountain is also incredibly quiet, thanks to its low-voltage operation.

I haven't drank from it myself, so I can't speak from personal experience, however, my cats are huge fans. It functions just as is shown in the images and video for the product and it is a rather large bowl which is great if you have multiple cats. Easy enough to assemble and the porcelain makes it easy to clean as well.

When it comes to cat drinking fountains, the PetSafe Drinkwell 360 stands out from the crowd. This stylish item can store up to 128 ounces of water. It’s the ideal size for a single cat, many cats, or even a dog. Your pet will have constant access to filtered water, which will run down the sides from five spouts on the top. By twisting the top, you can simply modify the flow. Bacterial development is inhibited by its high-quality stainless steel structure and continual flow of water.

My Kitty LOVES drinking from this fountain. He used to knock over every other item I have bought for him. However, this fountain he doesn't and he just LOVES to drink from it. I would highly recommend this fountain.
