Allie's New Water Foundation

Posted: Mon Aug 24, 2009 2:10 pm

I thought I had a great one for 2 years (Drinkwell). Well Allie for some reason would always place her head under the spout. :rolleyes

Yes, the wet spike look was always a dead giveaway after she had a drink. :lol

I was wiping her head dry with paper towel but didn't realize that the base (near her skin) was retaining moisture until I was combing her and a section of fur the size of a quarter just fell out in my hand. :shocked

I needed to buy another style (this one the water cascades down). Yes, Allie's fur grew back. :smile

Excuse Unity she doesn't know where she should groom herself yet. :wink

Thanks Joane. :smile

Allie is my heart and soul. :heart

The strange thing about her is that she casts a spell on everyone she comes in contact with.

She's so cute. They both are, actually. I wish my two would drink out of the fountains when they were running. I have to turn them off before either of mine will drink. *sigh*

@ Heather.

I can see why Allie, casts a spell on everyone she meets, there is something very special about that gorgeous face.

:lol

at Unity.

Celeste, is the new fountain a Petmate? I have a "Petmate" it looks very similar. My furries love their fountain. Hamish makes a mess with any water container, he dips a foot in before he drinks, and shakes water over everything.

Yes Sheryl...you know your kitty products well! :lol

It absolutely killed me to buy another brand since I was so use to the old one and there wasn't anything wrong with it. Josh actually liked to drink from the spout.

So out came the instructions so I could read on how this one operates. I have very little patience for this these days. :lol

I had no other choice since Allie had a raw spot after the fur fell out. If you look closely at the photo, what appears as a grey shadow is where she lost her fur. The fur is shorter now in that area than the rest of her forehead.

I don't miss the wet spike look tho'.

Heather, I believe you and little Unity have the same idea. :smile

Yes your girl does have the look of a special Angel. I have the kind of fountain you mention but Sparky's favorite is the bubble fountain from Cat It. I love it but it is harder to clean and the dogs share it also. Actually Sparky's favorite is the bathroom sink :smile

Every time I turn it on for her she inspects the handle before drinking, it's like she is trying to figure out how to turn the water on herself. :rolleyes
