I tried searching for this question in various ways and didn't find a thread. Maybe I was looking up the wrong words. How often do you change the water in your water fountain? Do you fully clean it every time you change the water? Do you only clean it sometimes and change the water more often? Tell me all about your fountain habits!
We have a ceramic water fountain, but I admit I am not the greatest about cleaning it because it's just another item on my long list of household chores. I usually manage to fully clean it once a week and change the water out a couple times a week. Is this enough or should I be doing this way more often? I'm guilty of just adding water to it when it looks a little low instead of fully changing the water out. I do change both filters every 3-4 weeks. We do have about 5 other additional cat-only still water bowls around the house and I fully change those out every couple of days. For the record, our youngest apparently loves the dog water bowl second to his fountain. That one gets changed a couple times a day, but I guess he's not turned off by dirty dog water.
