 Quiet, simple, easy and functional March 14, 2008

In my quest to find a good moving water source for my cat Socks, I tried the water fountain by model by Catit, but was not impressed by the noise of the pump or the flow of water, which continually ended up on the floor. The other medium flow Petmate didn't leak, but was just as noisy. I was a bit frustrated by my luck with these fountains as many reviewers had given such great ratings, particularly with the noise level - Maybe I got some lemons? Anyway...
This cylinder style model works great, and the water reserve is very large. The setup is much simpler than both of the previous fountains I tried, takes up less space and in my opinion is actually esthetically pleasing compared to the others.
It was very quiet as soon as I plugged it in, just a slight hum from the pump, which was virtually silent, something I could easily live with being that my house is very small (775sq).
My cat loves it, and is drinking WAY more than he would with just a bowl of water. I continually gave him fresh water throughout the day, but he is just not interested. Anyway, we're both happy with this product. I recommend it, good luck.
Much better March 10, 2009

I've had this Catit for a few months. It's worked flawlessly and animals love it. I've had the last version of this fountain and didn't like it after awhile. This version must have been done by a different team of engineers.
Because the old one had a reservoir pool, this fountain takes up less space and doesn't collect debris in said pool. It also sits higher off the ground, which also keeps some debris out of the fountain. Cats and dogs also seem find it more comfortable since it's higher and can be approached from all around.
It has a huge capacity for when my friends' dogs come over. Isn't messy, even with dogs since just a layer of water is being licked instead of a pool of water. It's very clean - I couldn't find any odor on the parts even after not cleaning it for two weeks. I sometimes wash the filters instead of replacing them every 3 weeks, and I haven't noticed anything remotely gross. It's much, much easier to take apart and wash thoroughly. (There is sometimes a minute amount of slime by the filter inlet however, that you should definitely scrub. )
Very quiet, and I don't think it uses much power.
This must aerate the water very well since my cat doesn't try to lick faucets anymore.
Another reviewer mentioned that only the edge of the filter seems to have water trickle over it. I have found a little bit of fur and some cat food chunks near the middle of the filter, so I think the water is probably getting filtered well.
EXCELLENT PRODUCT! January 3, 2009

I've tried other water delivery systems for "Ernest," but he didn't drink from them and had more fun taking them apart. After continually picking up the pieces, I got the hint. I then offered water from a bowl, but he rejected that, too, in favor of drinking directly from a faucet.
When I saw the Cat It Fresh & Clear at PetsMart, I had hopes again that Ernest might like it. While I was cleaning it in the kitchen sink prior to filling it with water, Ernest immediately pounced on it. The bubbler fascinates him. He's drinking far more water than before. And, he hasn't tried to take it apart.
The product is easy to put together, and easy to keep clean. The filter actually works, as it fits snugly in the system. Though the system does require electricity to run, it's very quiet.
It's easy to give this product five stars.
Update: I've now owned this product for several months. Unfortunately, after this short a period of time, it's begun to leak. Certainly, I'd hoped the product would have had a longer life.
The BEST product we've purchased for our kitties! March 1, 2009

I purchased this fountain from the pet store- but had I known Amazon carried it- I would have bought it online! Anyway, this is a GREAT fountain! We have four very picky kitties who slurp water down like little camels now! Since it's elevated, it doesn't seem to get dirty, the times I have cleaned it, it wasn't slimy, dirty, furry or anything like that. There's a big charcoal/fiberous filter that separates the pump and motor from the drinking surface, which I think is the key to the cleanliness of this fountain.
I also like that I can montior how much water our boys are drinking! We have owned this fountain about three months and have not had ANY problems from it. Our kitties have their own room (ie: the laundry room) which isn't heated/cooled like the rest of the house (they have thier own heater and A/C, but it doesn't always take care of the whole room) and I was concerned that the water might freeze and damage the pump but it hasn't yet.
This is a great purchase and I am planning to get the big dog version of this fountain for our dog this weekend!

My cat had been using the Drink Well Fountain for years but got somewhat disinterested in it. Bought the CatIT and it works great and he is drinking a lot more. It is east to clean and quiet. The Drink Well was a real pain to clean. I noticed some buyers said it overflows. You have to fill it up slowly as the filter needs to absorb the water. There is an indicator on top when it needs water added but if filling for the first time or after cleaning let the water get absorbed by the filter then slowly add more. After the first fill or refill then add water slowly until the indicator is at the top.
Very simple. Good product.
