"It arrived safely... Ultimately we kept the moonlight one because that’s what our picky kitty chose. Chewy does sell water pump replacement that has that if that’s a feature you need. Also in case pump goes bad you already have replacement. Also includes cleaning brush and filter to use with pum..."

"The design is very cute. But it barely holds any water compared to a stainless steel water fountain you’ll have to refill it daily. The pump is adjustable but it’s so bulky it sticks out as far as the fountain and splashes the floor on higher settings."

Bottom Line

This fountain is best for those who prioritize aesthetics over functionality. For a more reliable solution, consider other models with better functionality and durability.
