My kitties have one of those big water dispensers (not a fountain, just like an upside down jug on top of the dish) as a] I travel often, for days at a time and b] they drink a lot of water. However, I've noticed that whenever I take it up to refill it (once a weekish) the bottom of the resevoir and the dish itself are covered in slime. It's completely invisible and looks like it's just wet, but it's actually a viscous, nasty slime. I assume it's bacteria buildup, but I'm no expert. I've been washing it every time I fill it, but should I worry more? Is there an issue I'm missing?
Thanks for everyone's help!
