4. When one of my cats had kidney disease, I got one too.

It took a day or two for the two cats to venture to drink from it, but after a little while, they couldn't get enough of it. There was always water all over the place from them playing with it as well as drinking. I had a different kind, mine had a dome that water ran down, but it was the same concept----moving water. I hope it works out, but if you have a kitty with problems, make sure that there is water available besides this until you know they will use it. Mine did end up loving it----and I hated it. But it is all about the cats!

Try letting them drink from it while it is off for the first few days. That way they can at least.. Walk away Jan 2013 #11

I could try that next ginnyinWI Jan 2013 #12

Even if you plan to try another one let them try it "off" first before they... Walk away Jan 2013 #13
