Beanie, we have a cat fountain and the cats both like it, although one more so than the other. The BSH likes to play with it, he splashes in the water all the time and has knocked it off the worktop a few times. 😱 The Siamese seems to drink a lot more now as he prefers the running water.
I agree that it's a bit of a pain to clean though and it needs doing regularly, which I didn't think about before buying it. You also need to buy filters for it and replace them monthly. My DH has had to open up the pump a few times to clean it as it just stopped working as well.

Hope all goes well with the conservatory work! Have a good day

I've also had various types of cat carrier over the years. I think one that allows for either in through the door or take the top off and insert cat is best as so much depends on whether they put up a fight when the basket appears. Hope that makes sense! x6

Morning Beanie Ooh a sleepover at your Mums is on the cards is it. I recently had to stay overnight with my Mum and loved every minute of it. Hope the conservatory work goes without any problems which I'm sure it will. Have a lovely day. xx 7
