Hi, thanks for using Boop by Petco! The link below is a good fountain and I like The Drinkwell 360 stainless steel fountain. I had that for my cat. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/petsafe-drinkwell-stainless-steel-zen-water-fountain Have a great day

I highly recommend purchasing a water fountain! I have one for my dogs and cats, and they love it. They are easy to clean, and have filters to help keep the water clean. Plus they hold lots of water, so you don't have to fill it up daily. There are many differing types of water fountains, and I will put a link below to a number of different ones. I have the DogIt drinking fountain for my pets, and it's listed in the website below as one of the best of 2015. I hope this helps :-) https://www.ezvid.com/top-ten-dog-water-fountains

Water fountains are a great item to have available for your cats! You are right! They may just need a little time to get used to the sounds of the fountain and the movement of the water. Let them explore I️t on their own and at their own pace for a few days. You can also give them positive reinforcement associated with the fountain- eg feed them their favorite treats when they are near the fountain or feed them their food close to the fountain. I️ hope they come around the fountain encourages them to drink often :).

You can try some other type of canned food. Sometimes their tastes change and they decided they don't like what they had before. Cats can be picky. The other way to increase water consumption is to get a drinking fountain. Many cats like to drink from running water and will actually drink more if running water is constantly available. I would suggest you try this. Petco (or any large pet store) has a wide variety or drinking fountains: https://www.petco.com/shop/SearchDisplay?categoryId=&storeId=10151&catalogId=10051&langId=-1&sType=SimpleSearch&resultCatEntryType=2&showResultsPage=true&searchSource=Q&pageView=&beginIndex=0&pageSize=24&fromPageValue=search&searchTerm=drinking+fountain Hope this helps. Best wishes!

You have nothing to worry about, my cats are exactly the same, they will prefer every other option that seems to be fresher than their bowls, i tried a fountain bowl for a while but it never really replaced their need to drink from wherever they could.
