Who this cute watering hole is for is clear at first glance: with its cute cat design, the Catit PIXI Blue Drinking Fountain is a decorative eye-catcher, but it doesn’t just have a lot to offer visually. The fountain can encourage your cat to drink more water, which can help support the normal function of the kidneys and urinary tract. The cat fountain is equipped with an energy-efficient, extra-quiet pump that automatically shuts off when the water level is too low. You can choose from three water flow settings to best suit your cat’s drinking preferences. A triple-action filter ensures thoroughly purified water. Thanks to its compact design, the water fountain for cats takes up little space - perfect for small rooms.

Be sure to rinse carefully so that no soap residue remains. Cleaning the filter: Remove the filter from the bottom part and rinse it. Do not wash the filter with soap. If the filter contains impurities or other foreign matter, replace it. (Replacement filters are sold separately.) Replace the filter every three to four weeks or as soon as signs of saturation with foreign matter (impurities, food residue, hair, etc.) become apparent. More frequent replacement may be necessary depending on the home environment or water quality, as well as when used by multiple animals. Please refer to the operating instructions for this. Cleaning the pump: If you suspect the pump is dirty, open the pump and remove the impeller cover and impeller. Remove any dirt from the impeller and clean the impeller shaft with running water. Be careful when handling the impeller. If the pump causes noise, clean the pump as described above and fill the drinking water reservoir with plenty of water so that the pump is completely submerged. The pump must not run dry!

Common questions
Why won’t my cat drink water from its bowl?
Common reasons are water placed right next to the food, a bowl that is too narrow or deep, stale water or a strong-smelling cleaning product. Try a wide bowl in a different room or a fountain. If your cat suddenly drinks much more or much less than usual, see your vet.
Do cats drink more from a water fountain?
Many cats are drawn to moving water and drink more readily from a fountain, but not all of them. It is worth trying for cats that drink little or eat mainly dry food. Keep a normal water bowl down too until you know your cat uses the fountain.
