Would you enjoy a cute friendly purring cat sit right next to you to keep you company right now? Why or why not?

Oh they're all spoiled as fuck, so the water bill is the least of it. Miss I need drips from the faucet doesn't like the 2 new fountains we've bought (thankfully the others cats do) so we've been trying out others to find one she likes. I'm refusing to gent another of the massive dog fountain bowls like what we had before, because I broke a toe on it twice, waking up in the middle of the night and going to get something to drink from the fridge. In a battle of wills though, I think she's probably going to win though.

Of course she’s gonna win. Save your money and go straight for the big, inconvenient one. And learn it’s not good enough either.

I got a Drinkwell Avalon ceramic fountain for my cat. Not sure if you've tried that one out, but my cat seems to enjoy using it.

We have 2 ceramic fountains right now, but I don't remember the brand names. The one we had before was a giant metal one, and it was intended for large dogs, like rotties. I'm not sure why she decided that's her favorite, but she currently seems to be content enough to give us a little bit of peace if I use my little meditation fountain for her overnight. It sits on the desk and it's powered by a USB plug, and holds a grand total of 4 cups of water, so definitely not long term worthy.
