Introducing the PetSafe Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain, an automatic watering system designed to encourage pets to drink more by providing a continuous stream of fresh, filtered water. Its most important feature is the patented free-falling water stream, which entices pets with movement and oxygenates the water, keeping it fresh. This fountain is ideal for cats and small to medium dogs who prefer moving water or need encouragement to stay hydrated, helping to prevent urinary tract issues and kidney problems. It utilizes a replaceable carbon filter to remove odors and tastes, along with a foam filter to catch hair and debris. The fountain has a generous 168-ounce (approx. 1.3 gallon) water capacity, reducing the frequency of refills.

Why It Stands Out

This fountain solves the common problem of pets not drinking enough water from still bowls, which can lead to serious health issues. The continuous circulation and filtration provide significantly cleaner and more appealing water than a stagnant bowl, reducing bacteria and debris. Imagine a cat owner whose finicky feline previously ignored its water bowl; with the Drinkwell Platinum, the enticing stream encourages consistent hydration, promoting kidney health. Compared to a standard water bowl, this fountain offers superior filtration and encourages higher water intake, which is crucial for overall pet wellness. It's a widely recognized and top-rated product in the pet hydration market, often recommended by veterinarians for its health benefits. The initial investment pays for itself in improved pet health and reduced vet visits over time. It requires regular filter replacements (carbon and foam filters) which are available in multi-packs.
