Does anybody have one of these? I just won one on ebay.
I got the food and water dispensers wehre you fill up a tub, attach it to a bowl and the stuff comes out slwoly as they eat/drink from it, but oatmeal only ever drinks water from dripping taps, and if it isnt dripping he whacks it with his paw until it does drip!

Am hoping this will get him drinking from it, as it should be nice and fresh for him.
Only thing is it doesnt come with instructions, anybody know how often I need to replace filters?

Am off to search for feliway diffusers next. ioniser in each room now, seems to be helping MR Darcy's snot problem, and me and my kids asthma. Also my hubby used to get terrible sneezing fits here, allergy tos eomthing we think, but nothing lately.

I forgot Mags!!! WHAT a bad kitty-mummy I am . . . must look one out though so thanks for the reminder!!

CJ - I'm not sure how that works to be honest - it's not apparent by just looking at it is it? Does it not come with instructions?

Where would I get dispensers like that? Would be handy for biscuits in one so they can munch whenever they like and water in the other. Then I could just do the pouch food in another bowl!

donna, i got my two from ebay, 2.50 each and about 2.00 postage, which was a lot cheaper than in my local pet shop! but it depends on the size you want to.
The cat-it fountain i won isnt brand new, is in a box but they lsot instructions, that why i was wondering if anyone knew ow often to cahcnge filter, but my hubby had an idea, he said look on box when it arrives, tehre usually a web site address or phone number or soemthing on there to contact for help.

Basically the cat-it circulates the water adding oxygena nd keeping it fresh, filtering out any nasties.

I like those too, the oens you can fill from the top, only thing is when fliiing water from the top would it stop or keep pouring out the bowl onto the floor lol?
think they would have thought of that though.
My ones are just a cheaper version, but do the same job.
Just hoping the cat-it water fountain is a hit!
