You can leave bowls of water for your cat in every room, but she’ll probably refuse to drink from anything but the running faucet. This is partly due to instinct — running water is usually safer to drink than standing water — but it could also be because the water in those bowls isn’t fresh enough, isn’t full enough, or isn’t in the right spot. Cats are picky! But we don’t need to tell you that.
Instead of constantly leaving your tap running, give your cat her very own drinking fountain. The Ophanie Pet Fountain from Walmart is a bestseller because it features two water flow designs (a waterfall setting that’s similar to your faucet, and a gentle fountain that entices pets to drink), it comes with built-in filtration, and its large capacity stores enough water to last up to 11 days.
Usually priced at $40, you can score the Ophanie fountain for 50 percent off on Walmart’s website right now.

The fountain also comes with an anti-slip mat, a water level window so you can keep tabs on how much water your cat has, and it’s made with BPA-free plastic so your cat stays healthy and happy.
“Very easy to clean, maintains a lot of water, and [is] very quiet,” one Walmart shopper wrote in their review. “Great buy for the price … The best part is [it has] replacement filters that come with it.”
“This is a nicely built fountain at a great cost,” another pet parent wrote. “I’ve had one for about a year, it’s still working fine. I got a second one to treat my oldest cat, now no matter where he wants to hang out he has a fountain. He loves it, I believe it does motivate the cats to drink more.”
And someone else wrote, “My cat loves it and it is so important that he drinks lots of water as he was recently diagnosed with kidney disease. But I will advise it is very important to clean it at least one a month!”
Grab one of these water fountains for your picky cat while it’s marked down to just $20 and give her her own personal faucet to sip from.
