    Fister and his Fresh Flow

    Last week I put the Fresh Flow fountain up for Fister. He had to check it out immediately, but when I turned it on he ran. However, he IS drinking from it during the night - when it's off. He'll soon get used to it.


    Carefully checking this new monster


    I think I'll try it!

    He will love it (I don't know if he will love it as much as I love that rug though..... )

    When I first got Edwina a fresh flow she would drink out of it. Finally...I took away all other sources of water and she began to drink out of it. Now she loves and drinks so much more water.

    Aww, poor Fister! Our cats are like that too, they would probably run away from it. I'm sure he will get used to it soon.
    The rug is lovely!

    I'd need a lot of them here! I have a few cats with "drinking problems" so I'm sure that they'd manage to trash it in no time. I keep large bowls of water in a plastic tote type bin to avoid mopping up gallons of water every day! I'm willing to bet Fister will be drinking from it soon. Handsome boy.

    Cute pics! It's taken my two a few weeks to get used to the gurgling monster, but they are drinking from it. I moved it to Mitzi's feeding station as Mishi decided he preferred the bathtub faucet over the FreshFlow fountain at his station. Now they're both drinking from it.

    Yeah! You finally got it! Good to see you Fister Boy! Don't worry, you'll get used to that monster soon or later.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    My cats have the EXACT same fountain by Petmate. They love it! The noise doesn't bother them at all. He'll get used to it.

    Gary,

    If you're having trouble getting the fountain to flow, you need to take the pump apart and thoroughly clean it.

    If you have the directions that came with the fountain, read them. It tells you step by step how to take it apart and clean the little rotar that makes the fountain flow. If you don't have the directions, let me know. I'll send you a PM on the instructions.

    I take mine apart once a month and thoroughly clean it.

    I take mine apart and clean it regularly because Julies cat hair will get in there and clog up the water intake on the pump. Ours is very quiet once the water starts flowing. It only makes noise when it is filling up and beginning to flow or when the water level is too low.
    Julie was leary of it at first but she saw Buddy drinking from it and she tried it out. They both love it and drink plenty of water every day.

    Yeah Fister! It's so good to see you again! Don't worry about the mean old water monster - he won't hurt you and you'll actually grow to really like him.
