Fewer UTIs. Healthier kidneys. More water.
CatPure unit + spigot
Connection kit + 2 ft tube
6V adapter + 4 AA
Drip mat (free on Buy 2+)
Kidney chews + spare spigot (free on Buy 3)The #1 thing vets tell you for UTIs, crystals and kidney disease is: get them drinking more. Cats are built to ignore still water and almost all of them chase cold, running water. CatPure gives them exactly that, fresh from the tap, every single visit. Owners of CKD and urinary cats tell us their cat finally drinks on its own.
A thin tube runs from your faucet (or the valve under your sink) to the CatPure. When your cat comes within 12 inches, the sensor opens a valve and fresh tap water streams out of the spigot into the sink. Your cat walks away, it shuts off. No pump, no tank, nothing sitting still.
The first production batch ships soon. Presale orders ship first, in order received, at the launch price. You get a tracking number the day it leaves.
No tank means nothing grows. No pump means nothing clogs and nothing hums: just a soft click, then running water. No filter means nothing to buy. Wipe the spigot when you wipe the sink. Adhesive strips hold it to the counter and peel off cleanly.
Yes. The faucet diverter has a small handle: one way for you, one way for your cat. Prefer to never touch it? Pick the under-sink tee and your faucet stays exactly as it is.
Yes. The motion sensor detects any colour of cat, black cats included, from 12 inches away.
No. It only runs when your cat is there, about 45 seconds per visit. You can turn the flow down with the built-in valve, anywhere from a gentle dribble to a strong stream.
The valve makes a soft click when it opens. Most cats ignore it from day one. Shy cats can take a week: leave the tap-loving habit in place, let them watch another cat or you trigger it, and they come round.
Only things within about 12 inches trigger it, so walking past the sink doesn't. Place it so the sensor faces where your cat stands to drink, not the doorway.
Turn the flow down with the built-in valve and angle the spigot over the basin. The Counter Drip Mat catches the rest, and it's free on Buy 2.
Most cats figure it out in a day or two. Shy cats can take a few weeks. If yours never takes to it within 60 days, send it back for a full refund.
After you order, send us a photo of your faucet and a close-up of the aerator. We match the adapter to your exact thread. If the included ones don't fit, we send the right one.
3.5 inches wide, 9 inches tall with the spigot. Straight tap water, unfiltered, the same water you drink. Batteries and plug both come in the box: 4 AA last 6 to 12 months. The 6V adapter plugs into any US outlet. Use both and the batteries take over in a power cut.
Free US shipping. 60-day trial: if your cat won't use it, send it back for a full refund. 2-year warranty, lifetime replacement with Care+. Refund policy
★★★★★ Cat owners rate it 4.8/5
Tap to watch real cats find it for the first time.
Why it matters
Cats come from desert animals. Their thirst drive is weak, and they ignore water that has been sitting. The bill shows up in their kidneys and bladder.
From owners of UTI and CKD cats
I bought this for our cat after he got a urinary blockage and scared us to death. He'd always waited for us to turn the faucet on. When we stopped, he wasn't drinking much at all and wound up at the emergency vet. Now he drinks fresh water whenever he wants.
He will only drink from a cold, running tap and every bowl and fountain failed miserably. Within seconds of setting this up, he figured it out. He's drinking more water these days (yay kidneys!) and he stopped waking me up in the middle of the night to turn on the tap.
My chronic kidney disease kitty was trying to drink shower water, tub water, even toilet water. She'd knock over bowls immediately. This was the fix.
The problem
They sit in the sink and stare at the tap. They ignore the bowl and the $60 fountain. A cat that doesn't drink is a cat heading for crystals, a UTI or failing kidneys.
Water education
Every fountain on the floor pumps the same water around, over and over. Your cat's saliva and food crumbs go in with every sip, and slime grows on the pump within days. That's why fountains need filters. The water you poured in was clean. The fountain fouled it.
Nothing recirculates, so nothing grows. Fresh water comes in from your tap, what she doesn't drink goes down the drain.

Reviews
Two units, one for each floor, and we haven't had to do anything to maintain them in more than a year. Our two cats have excellent kidney health now. Prior to this, both had kidney issues.
My cat got a UTI from the other kind of cat fountains that had stagnant water in them. She loves this and now no more UTI.
She got a urinary tract infection and the vet said she may be getting dehydrated. It took her two days to learn she could turn it on herself. Now she drinks whenever she wants.
My Dexter has a UTI blockage, is on special food and needs to drink water. He refuses a regular bowl. No more midnight wake-up howls, and I feel better leaving him alone over Thanksgiving.
Every fountain I tried got nasty fast, even with new filters. This has her drinking much more than before. She's had lots of urinary issues, so a fountain that actually gets her to drink is such a good thing.
My cat Mouse will only drink running water. She meowed at the sink until I turned on the tap, then I'd wait to turn it off. Four fountains later, all slimy, all filters. Not anymore.
One of our cats forms urinary crystals. This definitely helps. They enjoy playing with it and the water sound gets them to drink.
Lupita had CKD and would only drink from the bathtub or our sink faucet. This let her drink without us turning it on and without running the faucet all day.
My senior kitty sang the song of her people every night to get the faucet turned on. It only took her a few days to realize she could get fresh tap water herself. Now we sleep peacefully.
Nothing but fresh running water will do for them. No more cleaning slimy fountains and changing filters, and they get their own water at night instead of waking me up.
My two black cats use it multiple times a day and overnight. The sensor works perfectly on them. They completely ignore the old filter fountain now.
Our Bengal doesn't howl when he's thirsty in the middle of the night anymore. Best money we've spent. Nothing to take apart, no yucky filters.
We moved all four cats off two filter fountains to a single unit. The filters were a recurring expense, needed cleaning every week, and the water was nasty by the end of each week.
One of our older cats has kidney problems and has always been obsessed with running water. She uses it all the time.
Absolutely no cleaning, filters or slime that could make my cat sick. She took to it immediately. She even uses it to clean her paws.
I took in a street cat and was grossed out by how nasty his fountain pump got. He figured this out by day two and I took the old fountain apart by day four.
My senior cat has chronic kidney disease and demands fresh water from the faucet. She sips from this for a long time.
Every fountain was a pain to clean and he knocked them over, leaving me with a wet floor, a thirsty cat and a broken spirit. This fixed all three.
One of our two cats only drinks from the bathroom sink faucet. It took her a week to get used to it. It's everything we were looking for.
No more ewww filters to change or clean. It has worked flawlessly for almost a year. It only took a few days for her to figure it out. Clean and quiet.
Use it for 60 days. If your cat won't take to it, send it back and we refund every cent. 2-year warranty on top.
