Why should I choose Pawira over other fountains?
Because your cat deserves more than “just another fountain.” Pawira combines 316 surgical‑grade stainless steel, a triple‑filter system, and continuous UV sterilization to deliver water that’s not just fresh — it’s protected.
Unlike plastic fountains that get slimy and harbor bacteria, Pawira is engineered to stay cleaner, run quieter, and last longer. Plus, every fountain is backed by our lifetime warranty — because we build for years, not months.
Is Pawira vet recommended?
Yes. Pawira has been tested and recommended by U.S. veterinarians who understand the critical link between hydration and long‑term kidney health. Over 70% of cats are silently dehydrated — Pawira helps change that.
How does Pawira help protect my cat’s kidneys?
Chronic dehydration is one of the biggest silent threats to your cat’s kidney health. Pawira encourages drinking by providing continuously filtered, UV‑sterilized, moving water — which cats instinctively prefer. More drinking = better hydration = less strain on the kidneys over time.
Many of our customers share stories of improved vet results after switching to Pawira — because consistent hydration really does make a difference.
My cat is on dry food. Is Pawira especially helpful?
Absolutely. Cats on dry food are at higher risk of chronic under‑hydration. Pawira makes water more appealing and accessible 24/7, helping your cat drink more throughout the day — exactly what their body needs.
Is the UV light safe for my cat?
100%. The UV sterilization runs inside the pump housing, continuously disinfecting the water as it circulates. It uses the same proven technology found in hospitals and water treatment systems — no chemicals, no risk, just cleaner water.
What does the triple filter actually remove?
Each filter set includes a pre‑filter sponge, activated carbon, and ion‑exchange resin to target:
- Up to 99.9% of chlorine (better taste, gentler on sensitive stomachs)
- 95–98% of heavy metals like lead and copper
- 90–95% of pharmaceutical residues commonly found in tap water
- Hair, debris, and sediment — before they ever reach your cat’s bowl
How often should I replace the filters?
For best results, replace filters every 2 weeks. Each box includes 8 filter sets to get you started — that’s 4 months of fresh, protected water right out of the box.
Does the water stay clean all day?
Yes. Water is filtered continuously as it circulates, and the UV light runs 24/7 to kill 99.9% of bacteria and viruses. That means your cat isn’t just drinking “new” water after a refill — they’re drinking clean water all day long.
What kind of stainless steel is used?
Pawira is made from 316 surgical‑grade stainless steel — the same grade used in medical environments. It’s non‑porous, bacteria‑resistant, and built to last for years without degrading.
Is it BPA‑free?
Yes. Every component that touches water is BPA‑free and safe for your cat.
Can I put it in the dishwasher?
Yes! All removable parts are dishwasher safe, making cleanup effortless.
How do I set up the fountain?
It takes just minutes:
- Unbox and rinse all parts
- Insert a fresh filter
- Fill with water up to the max line
- Plug in the AC adapter
- Watch your cat discover their new favorite thing
Detailed instructions are included in the box — but most cat parents find it intuitive and easy.
Does it come with a power adapter?
Yes. The Pawira Fountain includes a low‑voltage AC adapter. It uses less electricity than charging your phone — so you can run it 24/7 without worry.
How long is the power cord?
The USB cord is approximately 3 feet long — perfect for most countertop and floor placements.
How loud is the pump?
Ultra‑quiet. The pump runs at under 20 dB — quieter than a whisper. You can run it overnight without any disturbance.
Does it run continuously?
Yes — and that’s by design. Cats are instinctively drawn to moving water, and a constant flow encourages them to drink more throughout the day.
What’s the water capacity?
The tank holds 3.2 liters (108 oz) — plenty for single or multi‑cat households, with less frequent refills.
How often do I need to clean it?
Thanks to UV sterilization and antibacterial stainless steel, cleaning is simple:
- Quick rinse: Once a week
- Deep clean: Every 2 weeks (dishwasher safe!)
No scrubbing slimy residue like with plastic fountains.
What’s the best way to clean the pump?
Rinse the pump housing under running water and gently wipe away any debris. Avoid submerging the electrical components. If you ever have issues, just email us — we’ll help you through it.
My cat only drinks from a bowl. Will they use Pawira?
Most cats transition within 3–7 days — many immediately. Cats are wired to prefer moving water, so once they taste the difference, they rarely go back.
Tips for a smooth transition:
- Place Pawira where their bowl used to be
- Leave the old bowl out for the first few days
- Use a bit of catnip on the spout to spark curiosity
- Let them explore at their own pace — no forcing
Is it safe to run 24/7?
Yes. Pawira is designed for continuous operation. The low‑voltage AC adapter is safe, efficient, and eliminates the risk of battery leaks or swelling.
Can I use it overnight?
Absolutely. The pump runs at under 20 dB — quieter than a whisper — so it’s perfect for bedrooms and quiet spaces.
Do you offer subscriptions for filters?
Not at this time — but each box includes 8 filter sets (4 months’ supply), and you can reorder anytime directly from our store.
