my faucet drinking loving cat absolutely loves this and I love it even more because it's less time that I have to spend waiting for her to drink water off of my bathroom counter sink. It does have a waterfall like sound that is noticeable so if you don't like that you may want to unplug it. Haven't figured out if I can remove the cord/plug  and still have the fountain function as it is somewhat in the way of their food dishes. My other two cats who are not sink drinkers have not taken to it yet unless the fountain is off.
