Thirsty Pet No More: Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain
Tell A Friend
You probably think water is not as important to pets as it is to humans. You don’t really see your pet lugging his eco-friendly Sigg bottle around with him. Truth is, pets may not like drinking water, but they need it just the same. Drinking plenty of water reduces the risk of diseases like urinary tract infections and kidney disease in pets which means less costly trips to the vet for you. Encourage your pets to drink more water with the Pet Fountain from Drinkwell.
Overview: The new Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain is designed to encourage pets to drink water. It has a refillable water reservoir with over 1 gallon capacity, a spout 8 inches off the floor from which water flows continuously, a drinking bowl where water from the spout accumulates then flows back into the reservoir. The filter ensures that hair and dirt particles don’t get into the water tank and clog up the spout and flow mechanism.
What You’ll Love: The unit’s pump keeps the water constantly flowing, and this constant water flow keeps it fresh. The filter is also very effective at keeping pet hair and dirt off the water and the reservoir. The water’s movement attracts pets and encourages them to drink more frequently. Since the water spout is set at a higher height than the previous model, it makes drinking from the bowl easier and less scary for your pets. This unit is quiet and the big reservoir means less frequent refills.
Full Disclosure: This Pet Fountain is dishwasher safe, but hand cleaning is still recommended for best results. Great care is required when you clean the unit, however; take care not to break any parts. Furthermore, the lid on the reservoir should have been designed in such a way that pets won’t be able to open it. The whole unit is rather lightweight; this means it can easily fall down and break if you don’t shore it up (say, on the wall) properly.

I bought the Drinkwell Fountain for my two small dogs. They loved it right away and it’s great to not have to worry about if they have fresh water. Easy to clean too.
