I love this fountain! I bought this because my cat is very finicky and very selective on how he drinks his water. This particular Fountain was a very good choice because it is completely silent. Even the water makes no splash as it falls. It's silence is the reason my cat trusts it and drinks from that Fountain exclusively. My cats mate even matches the fountain. It's an attractive pair. I very confidently give this product two strong thumbs up. Overall great buy and I highly recommend.
