Catit Feeder & Fountain Guide: Which One to Buy

Catit Smart Pixi Feeder, Catit Pixi Fountain, Catit 2.0 Flower Fountain with stainless steel top, and Catit Pixi Elevated Feeding Dish

Catit’s feeding and hydration range covers more ground than “a bowl and a fountain”: there are smart app-connected feeders, gravity fountains, elevated dishes, and vacuum-sealed storage, each solving a slightly different problem. This guide walks through what’s currently in stock and who each product actually suits.

Automated Feeding

The Catit Smart Pixi Feeder dispenses measured portions on a schedule, useful for cats that need consistent meal timing or households where feeding times don’t always line up with someone being home. It pairs well with the Catit Smart Pixi Vacuum Food Container, which keeps dry food fresher for longer by removing air from the storage container, which is worth having regardless of which feeder you use, since stale kibble is a common reason cats go off their food.

Fountains: Flow Style Matters

Cats often prefer moving water over a still bowl, but not all fountains move water the same way. The Catit Smart Pixi Fountain is the app-connected option in the range, letting you monitor and adjust flow remotely. The standard Catit Pixi Fountain comes in blue, green, and white with a stainless steel top, all sharing the same underlying design with a top surface stream that many cats find more inviting to drink from than a flat bowl surface. If you already own a Pixi Fountain, the Catit Pixi Fountain Stainless Steel Top Only lets you upgrade an existing plastic-top unit, and the Catit Pixi Fountain Replacement Pump keeps an aging fountain running once the original pump starts to weaken rather than requiring a full replacement.

For a different flow style, the Catit 2.0 Flower Fountain With Stainless Steel and standard Catit Flower Fountain use a multi-stream “petal” design that spreads water across several small streams rather than one central flow. Some cats show a clear preference for one style over the other, so if a cat is ignoring a single-stream fountain, the flower design is worth trying before assuming the cat simply won’t use a fountain. The Catit Mini Flower Fountain scales the same design down for smaller spaces or multi-cat households running more than one water station.

Elevated and Multi-Cat Feeding

The Catit Pixi Elevated Feeding Dish raises food off the floor, which can matter for cats prone to vomiting shortly after eating or those with neck or joint discomfort that makes floor-level eating uncomfortable. For multi-cat households or cats that benefit from slower, more deliberate eating, the Catit Senses Multi Feeder 2.0 separates food into multiple compartments, which can also help slow down a fast eater prone to regurgitating a too-quickly-eaten meal.

Choosing Where to Start

If your cat already drinks readily from a normal bowl, a fountain is a nice-to-have rather than a fix for anything: the bigger, more common win is usually on the feeding side, either the Smart Pixi Feeder for schedule consistency or the Multi Feeder 2.0 if you’re managing more than one cat’s portions. If a cat is drinking noticeably less than expected, try the standard Pixi Fountain first since it’s the simplest and most widely liked design, and only move to the Flower Fountain’s multi-stream style if that doesn’t get a clear improvement in interest.
