This cat fountain is recommended genuine. He was directly from our hangovers (13 months old) accepted. Previously, we had never seen, if he had been drinking, so we let him drink frequently from the sink and bath (running water). He was also really great. Now we see him more often to the fountain to drink + play. The cleaning is simple and not at all cumbersome. However, there are two points that would improve the well. 1. As the top u. Bottom shell made of ceramic and both are in direct succession, rattling the housing often uncomfortably loud. This is not only annoying for us, but for the cat as well. I have stuck to the supporting surface of the lower shell some felt pads on which now stands the top shell. This dampens now enormous and you can hear almost nothing more. The only what you have to give now is that the lower shell can now no longer clear in the dishwasher. But I can anyway not imagine why you should do this, because the hand cleaning every two days is totally simple and sufficient. 2. The connecting tube between the pump and the housing upper part could be a bit longer, then we would also be easier to get the pump again at the onset, with the suction cups in the lower shell. On the whole, however, we are very satisfied and would buy the part at any time.
