Specifications

Catit’s published specification for the PIXI Drinking Fountain (Blue: item #43717):

Catit list the same fountain in four colours (white #43715, pink #43716, blue #43717 and green #43718), identical apart from the colour.

Three ways to drink from it, and Catit designed all three deliberately. With the spout accessory fitted you get an arching stream, which is what a cat is trying to reach when it tilts its head sideways under a tap. Without the spout, water bubbles up through the top and runs down into the front bowl. And because the bowl holds water, the cat can still drink from it with the fountain switched off. The spout pushes in and pulls out while the fountain is running.

Read the nose. Catit use the backlit nose and whiskers as the status display: white and steady is normal, a blinking red nose means it is time to refill, and a solid red nose means the water has run out and the pump has shut itself down.

The drinking surface is wide and shallow on purpose. Catit’s stated design goal is that the fixture does not brush a cat’s whiskers while it drinks. If your cat has been eating and drinking from deep bowls and leaving water it clearly wants, that is the problem this shape is meant to solve.

Compatibility

Filters and tops are shared across the PIXI fountain range. The Triple Action Filter is the same part in every PIXI fountain. The stainless steel top cover is not: Catit make two, #44845 for the standard PIXI Fountain and #44837 for the PIXI Smart Fountain, and they are different sizes.

Replacement filters are Catit #43721 (3-pack), #43722 (6-pack) and #43723 (12-pack). The pad measures 8.5 × 8.5 × 0.9 cm and fits every PIXI fountain, plain or stainless-steel-topped, standard or Smart. It is not the same filter as the Flower Fountain’s.

It is designed to sit next to the PIXI Elevated Feeding Dish. Catit built the two to match, so if you want the food and water station to look like one thing rather than two, that is the dish to pair with it.

It runs from USB. Catit specify a DC 5 V 1 A adapter, and the fountain itself draws under 1 W. Any decent 5 V phone charger of at least 1 A will run it, so there is no mains-voltage question to settle before it arrives and nothing to convert.

Setup & Use

The Triple Action Filter is a consumable, and Catit want it changed every 30 days. The pad is cotton mesh, active carbon and ion-exchange resin in three layers: the mesh catches hair and debris, the carbon takes out odours, and the resin softens the water by reducing calcium and magnesium. Catit’s stated reason for the softening layer is that those minerals, taken in quantity, can accumulate in a cat’s lower urinary tract. Running the fountain on a filter well past its month does not damage the pump; it just stops doing the job you bought it for.

Strip and clean the pump, not just the bowl. Catit build the pump to come fully apart without tools, and on the Smart fountain they set the app to remind you every 60 days. Slime inside the impeller housing is what makes a quiet fountain start to buzz. Rinse the impeller and its chamber under running water (no detergent inside the pump), and put it back wet.

Safety & Precautions

Catit publish no safety panel for this product. Their product pages carry specifications and features and then point at a Help & Advice section; there is no warnings list for us to reproduce. What follows is our own guidance, and we are labelling it as ours rather than passing it off as the manufacturer’s.

Never let it run dry. A fountain pump is water-cooled and water-lubricated; running one in an empty reservoir is the single most common way these fail. Catit’s own protection against this is the auto-shutdown, which cuts the pump when the water is gone: treat it as a backstop, not a schedule.

Strip and clean the pump, not just the bowl. Catit build the pump to come fully apart without tools, and on the Smart fountain they set the app to remind you every 60 days. Slime inside the impeller housing is what makes a quiet fountain start to buzz. Rinse the impeller and its chamber under running water (no detergent inside the pump), and put it back wet.

Run a drip loop. Let the cable hang below the level of the socket before it rises to the plug, so water tracking down the lead drips off the bottom of the loop instead of running into the outlet. It costs nothing and it is the single most useful thing you can do with any powered appliance that sits next to water.

Unplug it before you take it apart. Every clean means lifting the top off and handling a wet pump. Pull the power first, every time, however quick the job looks.

Catit state the plastics are BPA-free. That is their claim about the material, not a licence to put it through a dishwasher: unless a part is specifically listed as dishwasher-safe below, wash it by hand in warm water and keep it away from the heated drying cycle, which is what warps this kind of moulding.

Keep the adapter off the floor. The fountain end is 5 V and harmless; the adapter is mains equipment. Put it somewhere a spilled refill or an enthusiastic cat cannot reach it.

What’s in the Box

Catit do not publish a pack-contents list for this product. The items below are the ones they name explicitly on the product page. If something you were expecting is not on this list, ask us before you order rather than assuming it is in the carton.

• The fountain: reservoir, top cover and drinking bowl
• The submersible pump, with its cable
• One Catit Triple Action Filter, fitted
• The spout accessory, for the arching-stream drinking option

Catit specify a DC 5 V 1 A USB adapter but do not state that one is supplied, so treat the adapter as something to have ready rather than something to expect. Replacement filters (#43721 / #43722 / #43723) are bought separately.
