super
Silent and amazing! My brother and I had to get used to it at first, but now it's going really well. My wife did want me to mention that the filters that go with it are often sold out, which we find a real shame. But apart from that, we're very satisfied 😺😸

Filter that doesn't fit
Not the right filters at all. I received the white ones, which don’t fit my fountain. Very, very disappointed.

Regret this choice ...
It's a nice-looking model. The cat does drink from it. Unfortunately, the fountain is so light that the cat pushes against it and the water spills out. The floor gets wet, and the pump makes noise because there's not enough water left. You have to refill it every day, which defeats the purpose... You also have to clean it very regularly...

Scam with these filters
I’ve just received my order of 6 filters, thinking I’d get the blue filters shown in the photo. Unfortunately, I also received 6 white filters that are useless since they don’t fit into the blue holder. Expensive and disappointed.

Scam!!!!
Be careful, you don't receive the official Cat Mate product but substitutes instead! It's a shameless lie just to sell! It's disgraceful!

WARNING SCAM!!!!
You have to check the 3rd photo where they explain (in English, no less) that the filters you’ll receive aren’t necessarily the blue ones you think you’re ordering, but another model (the white ones) which are just a piece of foam (with a lot less charcoal, by the way).
According to customer service, who I contacted today, they only send the white ones now and apparently it was up to me to check the text on the 3rd photo...
But the price is still the same as for the blue ones!!!

Drinking fountain
I've been using this fountain for seven years now. Really solid design. The motor still works perfectly. I give it a thorough clean about every other week. Very satisfied.

Unconvincing
I ordered the set of replacement filters and received the version without the blue protective casing, just a stiffer fabric cover, which is supposed to work the same as the others? They don't have charcoal granules inside... I'm not convinced they'll be as effective.

Substitute product!
I ordered Cat Mate filters and to my great surprise, I received generic Closer Pets filters without being notified. I find this practice dishonest, especially since my cat refuses to drink since I replaced the filter. Probably a taste only my cat could explain. I think I’ll have to throw them away.
So I’ll probably order other filters. If it turns out I get the same ones again without being told, I’ll close my account for good.

Closer Pets 2 litros (6 uds.)
Not for my filter
I bought it specifically for my Cat Mate fountain but it doesn’t fit. I had to modify the filter holder inside because there was no way to get it in. My fountain has two slots and the replacement has three.

2 copies at home!
Never had any problems with our two units; one for upstairs and one for downstairs. In an ideal world, they would have been made of stainless steel, but I can always buy those later.

Broken pump
Overall, it’s a nice drinking fountain and both cats like to drink from it. At first, I received a plug with loose pins, but that was sorted out. Now, within a year, the pump has broken, despite good maintenance and regular descaling. So, not really durable.

Dangerous
These filters release a black residue that contaminates the water. I don’t know to what extent they may have caused urinary problems for my cats. Not only do I not recommend them, but I actually wish they’d be taken off the market.

Impossible to clean, full of bacteria
I have bought this drinking fountain several times over more than 12 years, had to replace the pump, but even worse: because it’s made of plastic, it’s not easy to clean properly. It gets covered in a greasy residue, so bacteria build up. Even putting it in the dishwasher doesn’t get it clean.
I’ve now bought a ceramic drinking fountain from another online shop, which was ten euros cheaper than the Catmate. It’s easy to clean and my cat is happy (and healthier) with it.

Filters for the fountain for kitties and even the dog
These filters are much worse than the ones before, those were great—such a shame.

Surprisingly, my cat loves it
It's our third fountain, she didn't like the previous two, but I decided to give it another shot, and it worked out! We've been using it for almost a year. But it's not as quiet as described. I have to turn it off at night because it's noisy.

Expensive
Very expensive and not very effective, the water gets dirty quickly.
