1 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

My cats love the fountain but the pump died a few months in. Very frustrating as I can't get a replacement.

"It's ok at first"
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Its a decent products and the cats got used to it after a few days. However the base started leaking after a few months and I have to buy a new one probably from a better brand.

"Best upgrade ever"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I had a Kmart water dispenser and ended up purchasing this one as the old one finally gave out, wow what an upgrade! Its completely silent and looks awesome. The cats are loving it :)

"Great!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Was cautious the cat wouldn't go near it, but as soon as I put it on the floor he came & used it. Great product!

"Quiet and cute"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Our cat, Wally, has been drinking from a Kmart water fountain that finally gave up the ghost last week. We replaced it with this fountain and WOW! We should’ve changed earlier. It’s super quiet and looks less cheap and plastic-y than the Kmart one. It also looks much easier to clean. I has a little blue light in it which is a cool feature that adds to the aesthetic of the fountain. Not to mention, Wally loves it and is enjoying drinking from the streams of water from the flower.

"Great, pets love it. More filters-"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Fountain is great, very bright though so don't put it in a room you want dark at night. It does come with 1 filter but doesn't day where to get more filters.

"Cats love it"
5 stars"

Https://youtu­.be/KWF2gxJtgLs My son did a review. Cats love it and don’t need to drink from running tap anymore. Took a few days for them to try as I had to change the water a second time.

"My cat loves it"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I put it in a seperate location to the cat food, as I heard that is what you are meant to do. At first she didn't take to it, but I kept it there and she eventually got to it, and now she uses it all the time. It looks good, has a cool light on it, only needs filling up about once a week. I think it has a usb connection, so needs an adapter to plug it into a power outlet.

"My cat loves it."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Not only does my cat love this fountain but Its so coinvent for me. It comes with a filter and a light which kills bacteria and stops dust from being cycled through the water. The best thing about it is I just have to refill once a week and clean it every now and then. My cat is drinking more water too!

"Love it"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Very easy to put together and maintain. Had it for a week so far. Really quiet, barely hear the water trickling. Looks cute, perfect size, and kitten loves to drink from it.

"Great"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Really happy with this product. Great price and quality. Easy to set up. Cat loves it and drinks from it. Tends to make a noise when its a quarter level empty but can easily fix by adding more water.

"Great fountain!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This fountain is well built and easy to put together. It holds a decent about of water so you don't need to refill every day even though my cat is always using it! It's also pretty quiet too.

"Great for the fussy kitties"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This is an excellent, small water dispenser. We'd previously used a dog sized one for our fussy cat who only drinks running water and it was very heavy and a drama to clean. This one is really easy to use and clean, it's really accessible for the cat and it looks cute. The interior light is a really strong blue, but it's no big deal. Remember to screw in the top of the flower properly to avoid the annoying tickling sound

"Works well but my cat has no interest in it."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Cat is more interested in the box it came in but I can't complain about the product itself. It works as described.

"Dog even loves it!"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

A brilliant size for a smaller dog as well as cat. Both took to it really well and weren't worried by it at all. Easy to put together or pull apart to clean. Made sure I bought plenty of filters just in case they disappear. Love this product, but very bright at night with it glowing blue. Would have been great if it had an off switch for the light. Overall though, a good product and a great price.

"I like it... Cat is indifferent"
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

My cat does not care for it but, I can still use the filtered water if I put it in a different bowl so still gets some use and is healthier for her. I knew buying it was a 50/50% chance of her using it or not so not a bad purchase tbh.

At least it is cute and makes for a nice night light in the kitchen. So giving 3 stars just because my cat isn't the biggest fan.

Fountain is good and works well, but there is no information on what type of replacement filters to use or how to purchase them.

"Very handy to have"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I was super happy with this once my cats got used to using it, sadly the pump has stopped working for no apparent reason, it’s never run dry and the light still works, hopefully I can get replacement pump and not have to buy a whole new one.

"Quality Varies"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Had the first unit and it was great, nice and quiet and the cat got straight into it, unfortunately the pump died after about a year (and you can't get a replacement). The second unit has this weird thing where it occasionally pumps out too much water, so it doesn't come out of the channels, it goes over the petal part and makes a really loud splashing noise :( I want my first unit back lol (obviously the cats couldn't care less)

"Louder than I expected"
3 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Although filling it up more may help that. Cats adapted quickly and seemed happy enough.

"Great had over a year now"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

We have had ours for over a year now, no complaints. Still working wonderfully for our two cats. We are buying another one to put in another area of the house

"Cool pet fountain :)"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Definitely good quality and works as expected! My cat doesn’t seem to like the way it flows from the flower but you can remove that part and it still flows out :)

"Cool pet fountain :)"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Definitely good quality and works as expected! I thought my cat would love it (he likes to drink water from the shower) but unfortunately he’s only gone for it when I turned it off lol.

"Awesome product"
5 stars"

Our dog and cats love it. Had it for over a year and it's still going strong.

"Cat tap"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

If your cat loves the tap, they’ll love this, my old girl does :) p.s You need a usb plug, doesn’t come with one.

"My cat loves his fountain"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Such a great idea for pets to have fresh filtered water not sitting getting stagnant

"Great"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

My 6 month old puppy loves it, don’t use the flower for her just let the water bubble away.

"Great for cats"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Quiet, easy to set up, refill and clean. My cat loves it, and it looks cool too.

"Stopped working after 2 weeks"

Purchased on Mighty Ape

Worked good for 2 weeks, then failed, so can't really recommend it lol.

"Very handy for clean water"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Have had for a couple of weeks & our cat pretty much used it on the second day, very handy for our fussy cat.

"Cats love it"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Best purchase – cats previously always refused to drink water from bowls (seemed to prefer puddle water?) but since I purchased this they use it all the time. I think the filter probably removes ‘weird tastes’ that might have put them off tap water previously. One of the cats seems to want to sit with its face under the fountain though…

"Awesome"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Our cats absolutely love it. Best buy ever

"Excellent"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Love the blue lighting. Cat loves it. I add in a little dental care stuff I got from the vet to help with gum and dental health. The filters are cheap and easy to source from Mightyape but they need to be replaced every 2 weeks due to the smaller filter size. 10/10 for pricing and convenience.

"Purrrrfect for my cat"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

We had a CatIt 1.0 fountain which was on its last legs and decided to try mighty apes one instead of paying CatIt prices as it looked the same. It arrived today and it's sturdy, good quality and the petal fountain part my cat decided to play in with his paw first but then decided to drink it and loves it much better than his old one. Hope the pump lasts as long as the CatIt one and it will be perfect!! I can see there may be more water play shenanigans with this one though lol
