Thread: Hagen CatIt Large Water Fountain

We have had this type of fountain for several years,it is always running in the cats room & during the summer replace the water bowl in the outside pen with one as well,keeps water nice & cool for them. By rinsing filter out each time dome is refilled hubby gets up to six weeks before having to replace them & that was with six drinking from it,five now.
When we first started ours up & it also ran one sided so we found getting the palm of your hand & pushing the water around dome at the top to meet up with water the other side it worked fine.
Although he has stopped doing it since growing up {I am very pleased to say} Welly would always wait by the mat when hubby went to fill the dome then when switched on he used to try & catch the air bubbles that came up,to do so meant he laid acrooss open bowl with both arms wrapped around dome & then pouncing at bubble as it rose,he used to get drenched which in turn meant everywhere & everyone else as well.
I agree about the bottled water though,we have a softner so have no problems but a friend had a lot of trouble with the workings of hers due to the hard water in this area & her blue mat ended up white.....!

We have the same fountain, I love the fact that you can be out all day without worrying that they will run out of water, knock it over ect.

I get my filters from ebay two packs for £4.26 plus £2.39 delivery, you also get a tin of Applaws food with it (the sellers are one of the main agents for it in the UK). rrjpets is their name.

When you need to clean the fountain and get rid of any build ups use a 50/50 mix of brown vinegar and water, soak it for a little while and rinse. ( I rang Hagen to see what they recomend! )
