My cat is fascinated by water, and we quickly learned that a bowl wasn't an option because he slides it around and knocks it over, making a mess. Then we got him one of those bowls with a self-filling tank thinking it would be heavy enough that he couldn't move it, but he moved that too even when we weighed it down with a 35lb dumbell and then started jumping on the tank which would make the bowl overfill. I attempted to solve the issue by getting him a water fountain, but after just two days he's figured out how to knock off the stainless steel lid and that is a problem now too. I tried taping it down but he chews at the tape and I'm afraid this could be harmful for him. I feel like I'm at my wit's end. I have wood flooring and having water on the floor constantly is not an option, and when I would put his bowl on an absorbent mat he just flip it within the hour and he definitely wasn't getting enough to drink. Does anyone have any fountains that can't be opened that easily, or another solution that I may not be aware of? I attached a picture so you can see the sort of fountain I have.
