 Great Idea and Great Design, But... September 1, 2008
I purchased one of these at the same time I purchased the Drinkwell Platinum Pet Fountain for my cat's 8th birthday. We hooked it up immediately to the fountain and within a few days we had some pretty impressive looking grass. The construction, design, and ease of use of this product is superb. However, there are some definite problems. Some of which can be attributed to the product itself and some depend upon the individual cat or cats that this product is intended for.
In our case, only one of our cats had anything at all to do with the grass and eating it was not it. He would simply pull it out of the plastic garden and would leave it lying either in the water itself or next to the fountain. Our other cat wouldn't even make the effort to even tear it out of the plastic garden. Now this particular issue was merely an individual choice for our cats.
The resulting problem that we had since the grass was only being pulled out and not eaten was the grass lying in the bottom of the fountain and making the water a bit slimy and discolored. When we were awake and saw the grass floating in the water we would immediately pull it out and throw it away. However, when we were sleeping the water would lie in the water for an extended period of time and would then discolor the water and make it a bit slimy.
If your cats will eat the grass and not leave it in the water, then I would have to recommend this product. However, if your cats are like mine and don't eat the grass, then I wouldn't recommend this product at all due to the fact that it makes a mess and creates unnecessary pollution in your cat's water.

This product works just as described and lasts quite a while. Unfortunately, my cats wouldn't eat it so I kept triming it down as it was growing so tall, it was falling over. Too expensive to try again.
grass pods July 13, 2008
this is a great idea...if you don't have a dog. my dog take it out and drags the grass and water through the house. it is greast for cats.
 Slimey business. June 22, 2008

The first time the grass grew well, the second and third time I tried to grow the grass almost nothing grew. The biggest problem was the slime it created in the fountain. I had the hardest time trying to remove ALL of the slime -- it was everywhere. Had to take apart and clean the entire unit once a week. Needless to say, I won't be buying these again. Cheaper and easier to buy cat grass that does not grow in the Drinkwell.
 Cat loves it June 11, 2008
My cat has been obsessed with the bathroom sink--asking to have access to the faucet numerous times a day. She also has feline hyperesthesia (basically kitty OCD where she chases and attacks her tail) and I needed something to occupy her little mind. She loves this fountain. She figured out after the second day she can drink from the spout like she does the faucet. Sometimes she just lays by it (I think the sound is soothing) or just watches it. She is a good drinker, so getting more water into her was not an issue--but if you have an animal who needs to drink more water, this would do it. The motor is almost silent, and I love that I can break it apart and pop it into the dishwasher. You don't really need the special cleaning kit for the motor--a Q Tip works just fine. You do need to keep the water level up or the motor starts sputtering. Be sure to watch that as you lose some water to evaporation as well as consumption. It's very easy to maintain, though. I highly recommend!
