Will this work for a 1 year old Egypian mau who splashes and puts her paws in? I bought this other other water dispenser with filter ( Non circulating ) that has been a nightmare her paws dirty the water then she won't drink from it and tries to splash...

This won't clean the dirty water. It just circulates the water. My cat loves it. She doesn't splash or put her paws in the water. The water would go all over the place and may tip over if played with or in.

I have been able to do four white paws with out changing the water---but--if you want them REALLY clean, you will change the water for a rinse.

The filter filters the water going into the bowl. I don't know if the filter will do that. Also I use mine for my two cats. Sorry I couldn't be of more help

I have a medium (which holds 55-60 ounces of water) and it works pretty well for my two lab mixes. My larger dog is about 65 pounds and his front paws are about 3.5 inches wide. His paws fit in the opening, but just barely. The medium is a good size because it isn't too heavy. That said, it isn't deep enough to get the dirt on my dogs' lower legs. If your dog is active and likes to slide in the dirt, you may want to get the large.

Haven't had but a month & just had to change filter - I have 2 big dogs & 2 cats. I use filtered water too but I think the filter is more to catch the bits of food & hair that fall into the bowl & it sure did! You can see thru the filter so you might be able to rinse it clean but I haven't tried that yet.

No. I have a 68 lb Australian Shepard and wash all four paws without changing the water.

Yes, that is the fountain I use it on. If you do not clean your fountain properly your pet can get mouth infections that are expensive to treat. We clean our unit and change the filter faithfully every 3 days.

reno,i've been using a drinkwell fountain for years, without the problem you are having. i hope that you have already resolved your problem. with 2 cats, i was not replacing the filter as often as you. (i have the smaller fountain, my sister has the platinum.) the platinum is currently providing water for my sister's 2 dogs, my 2 larger dogs, and one good sized cat. we do need to fill it a couple of times a day.i don't know if this will help, but if you are still having the problem you might try cleaning the entire thing with white vinegar. vinegar works so well for cleaning so many things, i think it might help. good luck to you. reno,i've been using a drinkwell fountain for years, without the problem you are having. i hope that you have already resolved your problem. with 2 cats, i was not replacing the filter as often as you.

No not with their filter. However, I put in this last time a charcoal filter i bought at Walmart and also their filter just to give it better filtering. If you can find the type of filter where we can add our own charcoal and snap it back shut please let me know. Make sure you empty the water 1x week. and clean it throughly. That is only 4 x a month but it really is necessary for the health of your pet. They need fresh water daily so i figure that this is the least i can do for them.

It will depend on the cat. So far, ours don't play with the water in it much, even the one who has moved large water bowls across the floor.The water bubble up a center column and sheets across the curved top. However, we do get some water splash, maybe due to the hard water we have (things lime up quickly) or the fact that we're using the older filters we had for a previous model.

I used it for a 20 month old, to wean her off of her bottle, & it worked perfectly. However, she did end up chewing a hole in the silicone spout, but she was always chewing holes in the bottle nipples, so, it was nothing new for us.

it will work, better if the big dog has a pointy beak (collie), less good if it is wide (st bernard). The bowl is 6" wide, 7" long at their widest points. I got it for my cats, and was not happy to discover that they love to splash in it, which makes a huge wet mess around the dish. A big dog will probably make a wet mess as well, so as long as that's not a problem. Otherwise I'm happy with it, nothing to plug in, I know my pets won't run out of water.

I have to be honest here...I've thought about buying another one just for the dog, but I think it would be a complete nightmare! It might hold enough water for both. But, thinking about my dog, I change her water regularly and even more in the summer or just needs changing because she's a dog! My newer puppy is about 60 pounds, but I've seen her with her doggie daycare buddies, and it's a mess. I can't imagine unhooking it, cleaning it, plugging it back in, etc., multiple times during the day. And, cleaning and changing the filter(and that could get expensive), I wouln't. Sorry, I hope that helps! Good luck! I have to be honest here...I've thought about buying another one just for the dog, but I think it would be a complete nightmare!

This would work. It has different settings for the stream so I'm sure you could find one that would work. I have a corgi and sometimes I just use it on her paws for the mud. There is also one setting that makes it a very specific squirt.

Is a pretty small opening. The water constantly bubbles though so he could probably get his paws wet by tapping on white part where the water comes out. It comes up through a small tube. Honestly, though, I'd stay away from this one. I had a hard time keeping it clean. This was the outside waterer and I had to really scrub it every week to get the slime and mold out. There are better ones out there. I have a blue and white one from doggit I use inside that's much easier to keep clean. The one advantage to the one pictured is its fairly heavy and hard to tip over.

The opening is a little too small for a Quaker in my opinion (that wide beak would probably prevent him from getting in there). I would go with a different type of water container, like the ones with the metal tube and ball bearing. These aren't hard for birds to figure out, and they keep the water even cleaner than this silo waterer.

I'd say so, depending on how messy of a drinker you've got there. Just beware of the chunks of food that may get dropped on the plastic as well. Once they mix with the splashed water, it can get a little yucky. I have to scrub this thing fairly regularly, but it comes with the territory. It's a great set of bowls, especially for taller dogs.
