UPDATED, need more help, cat with water bowl issues

[critter crazy]

I agree you will have a problem still if he is just splashing the water out! and yes plastic does get dirty! but i wash mine out with soap and water everyday, otherwise it will get very dirty!! It is the only plastice dish they have and i take very good care to keep it clean! They have some cheap ones at wal-mart if you atleast would like to give it a try! good luck to you!!

I'm not really talking about dirty as in visable dirt, but plastic is so pourous that bacteria hides very well in plastic dishes even with thorough cleaning & sterilization. Tiki & Raustyk both get those "plastic pimples" on their faces when they use a plastic dish for more than a few days in a row. Otherwise I would for sure give it a try.
Why does Pickles have to be so difficult.
