I was sure she'd ignore it like the others

Honestly I almost didn't order it. My cat had snubbed two other fountains and I figured I'd just wasted money again. She sniffed it the first evening and walked off, classic her. By the third day she was drinking from it on her own without me doing anything. I genuinely didn't expect that after the last two.

No more slimy film every two weeks

My old plastic fountain got that horrible slippery coating inside within days, no matter how often I scrubbed it. This one is the first thing that's actually stayed clean between washes. I wipe it down once a week and it still looks new. That alone was worth it for me.

Talked myself out of it for weeks over the price

I'll be honest, I went back and forth on this for a while because it costs more than the cheap ones. What changed my mind was realising I'd already bought three cheap ones that all ended up in the bin. I'd rather have spent it once. Two months in and I'm not looking at fountains anymore, which is a relief.

Quiet enough that I forget it's on

My biggest worry was noise because my last one hummed all night and my cat hated it. This one I genuinely have to look at to check it's running. It's in the same room as where she sleeps and it hasn't bothered her once. She's nervous about everything, so that says a lot.

I thought my wife was overthinking it. I was wrong.

My wife had been quietly worried about our cats barely touching their water and wanted to try this. I thought it was a lot for a water bowl, I'll admit. Our babies took to it within a couple of days and drink from it constantly now. I'm the one who reminds my wife when the filter's due now, so I've clearly come around.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my cat doesn't love it? Can I return it?

No problem. you can return it. You have 60 days from delivery.

Email support@trypurrwell.com and we refund you in full. No restocking fee, no form, no questions.

Most cats are drinking from it inside 3 days. If yours is the one that isn't, you're not out anything.

What happens if the fountain breaks?

We ship you a new one. Free, for 3 full years.

The pump is what dies on cheap fountains, usually around month 4. Ours is covered for 3 years, along with the sensor and the body.

Email us your order number and the replacement goes out. No shipping fee, no receipt hunting.

How do I set it up?

Setting it up takes about 5 minutes. Rinse the parts, slot the filter in, connect the pump and sensor, fill to the line, plug it in. You can also follow the instructions card inside.

It runs on mains power, so pick a spot within reach of an outlet — away from the food bowl, and out of a doorway or high-traffic path.

If anything's unclear, email us. Same-day reply, and we'll do a call if you need help getting set up.

Why is PurrWell more expensive than other fountains?

Over a year, it isn't.

A $30 plastic fountain lasts about 4 months before the pump goes or your cat quits on it. Buy three of those and you've spent more than PurrWell costs once.

304 medical-grade steel blocks the bacteria, so it never grows the film that makes cats stop drinking, and we cover the whole fountain for 3 years.

You buy it once. That's the whole argument.

My cat is ignoring it. What should I do?

Give it 3 days. Most cats investigate on day one and commit by day three.

Three things that speed it up:

  • Put it exactly where the old bowl was, not somewhere new
  • Keep it away from food and litter
  • Leave the old bowl out for the first week, so it's a choice rather than a swap

Still nothing at 60 days? Email us for a full refund.

Is PurrWell safe for my cat?

Yes. Every surface the water touches is 304 medical-grade stainless steel — the same grade used for surgical instruments and commercial kitchens.

No BPA, no plastic, nothing that leaches into the water.

How do I clean it?

Top rack of the dishwasher, once a week, about 5 minutes of your time.

It comes apart in seconds and there's nothing to scrub, because steel doesn't hold the film plastic does. Use the Deep-Cleaning Kit every month or so for the pump housing.

How often do I need to change the filter? How expensive are they?

Change the filter every 2 weeks. With a Membership, fresh pack arrives before you run out.

  • 120-Day Membership — 8 filters every 120 days, $39.99. $5.00 a filter, $0.33 a day.
  • 60-Day Membership — 4 filters every 60 days, $26.99. $6.75 a filter, $0.45 a day.

Your first filters come free in the box: 4 with the 120-Day, 2 with the 60-Day.

You can also buy filters separately if you would like.

Each one runs 5 stages — mesh, ion exchange resin, activated carbon, mineral stones and coconut carbon — removing the chlorine, heavy metals, harmful minerals, impurities and hair.

Pause or cancel anytime from your account, in about 10 seconds.

Is it noisy?

No. Under 20dB, quieter than a whisper.

And it isn't running most of the time anyway — the sensor only starts it when your cat walks up. There's no constant hum to get used to, which is exactly why even nervous cats love it.

At night you won't hear it start.

How does the smart sensor work?

A smart motion-sensor reads your cat as they approach the bowl. Water starts, they drink, and it stops a few seconds after they leave.

It reads at the bowl, not motion across the room — so walking past doesn't set it off, and it doesn't miss your cat.

Covered by the same 3-year warranty as the rest of the fountain.

Why stainless steel and not plastic or ceramic?

Because of what happens to plastic in the first week.

Plastic scratches. Every scrub leaves microscopic grooves, and those grooves hold a thin film of bacteria between cleanings. It's the slick coating you feel inside a plastic fountain after 2 or 3 days. You can try washing it off. It comes back.

That film carries a taste and a smell, and a cat's nose is far sharper than ours. The pattern is always the same: Cats love it for a few days, then they drink less, then they go back to the tap.

Ceramic avoids the scratching but chips, and a chipped glaze gives the film somewhere to sit again.

304 stainless steel is non-porous. No grooves, nothing to cling to, and the whole thing goes in the dishwasher. Same material as a surgical tray, for the same reason.

Shipping & How do I contact support?

We process and ship every order within 1-2 business days, and delivery typically takes another 3-7 days depending on the carrier, so most cat moms have PurrWell on the counter within a week.

If you have any questions or need anything before or after it arrives, our team is one email away at support@trypurrwell.com. We usually respond on the same day.
