You may find your cat drinking from the toilet, or trying to get a sip every time you turn on the faucet. To help your cat get adjusted to a new fountain, it&#8217;s best to keep it off until the cat is ready to use it. Give them time to investigate their new toy and become comfortable with it. Be patient with your cat and have an alternate water source nearby so they have another source of freshwater until they become used to the fountain. In time, your cat will adjust to its new fountain and begin drinking from it regularly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Frequently Asked Questions\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Why does my cat need a water fountain?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Proper hydration is crucial for the health of your furry friend. It can improve their digestion, flush out toxins, and increase their nutrient absorption. If your cat is on a dry food diet, it is even more important that they increase their water intake. To live a long and healthy life, your kitty needs to drink water. Cats are attracted to running water, so a water fountain can increase the amount they drink.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How often should I\u00a0change the water in my cat&#8217;s water fountain?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You should make sure to clean the fountain at least once a week. Bacteria can grow, even though the water is running. It is also important to replace the fountain filters regularly. Make sure you monitor how much water your cat is drinking, so you can add more water to the fountain as needed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Veken Pet Water Fountain For a water fountain that does it all, Veken has you covered.
