304 stainless
Plastic scratches, and scratches harbour the bacteria behind feline chin acne. Steel doesn't scratch, hold odour, or leach.
Cat hydration, done properly
Cats evolved in deserts and barely register thirst. Moving water is the fix — and they drink far more of it.

How often a filter needs changing. Miss it and the pump gets loud.
What it's made of
Plastic scratches, and scratches harbour the bacteria behind feline chin acne. Steel doesn't scratch, hold odour, or leach.
Quieter than a whisper. A fountain that hums gets unplugged; one you can't hear stays on.
A window down the side. Check the water at a glance, and never let the pump run dry.
Strips down in seconds with no tools, and the steel goes in the dishwasher.

Most fountains get abandoned for the same reason: the filter clogs, the pump gets loud, nobody has a spare, and it ends up in a cupboard. Starting with six months of filters is what stops that.
Cats take weeks to accept new things. Return it used.

Fountain and pump. We replace, not repair.
The reason most fountains die. Not this one.
