When I was recommended this pet fountain, I thought it was so cute. I just didn’t know if my very senior, picky cat would love it as much as I did. I ordered it on a Friday and received it that Sunday…pretty quick! It was equally quick to clean and set up. The glass is superb; it is so thick and clear. It is definitely heavy!! So be aware of that. I sat there with my cat and just admired the Brook Pet Fountain. I kept thinking I should put some tiny little plastic fish in there to entertain my cat and me while we admired the flowing water. 😄
After setting up, using the low flow reducer, my cat was interested. She didn’t like it in the middle, so I scooted it more toward the back. She actually drank out of it within about 30 minutes. Success!! My cat also has kidney disease, so getting her to drink enough water is a big concern for me.
Some of the draw backs are that the glass bowl is quite heavy. Putting it down initially is fine, because you can fill it up on the ground. But picking it up with water in it to clean it was a bit of a chore. Having to clean it every week is no fun, when you are assuming the filter will pick up the slack. I cleaned after 4 days of use the first time. Then I let it go for 1 week. That was not a good idea. The water became murky and when I took off the filter ring it had some slimy brown stuff on it. I cleaned everything and oh…I do use filtered water for my drinking and my cat. Another thing is that the bowl is about 1" too tall for my cat. She likes to lie down when eating or drinking. She also did not like the blue light, so it was great that you included a cover for it.
Otherwise, I think the Brook Pet Fountain is an amazing concept and beautiful to add to any type of decor you may have. And it is Mochi approved!
