If you do not then the water does not flow correctly and the fountain makes a bit of noise. You do however need to line the spout from the clamshell up with the hole on the top stainless steel part. Note there is no clipping here as this piece just lies onto the base. Then place on the top stainless steel part. There is a triangular shaped marking on the base as to where to the shell fits. The shell shaped housing has little plastic feet so these are then placed into the stainless steel base. This did need a little bit of force as I could not get it to close initially – again I put my lack of patience down to the heat. Then you close up the shell (so that it does look like a clam). Then the filter fits into the clamshell – this is much simpler to work out which way around this goes as the filter is a V-shape and so went into the pointier end of the shell. I put not thinking about this initially down to the heat (it was a very hot day). I did finally get it correct as the pumps output needs to line up with the hole in the clamshell. However, the instructions did not say which way round the pump fitted. First thing, the pump fits into the plastic clamshell. With the instructions in hand and feeling the heat I started to put the water fountain together. Oh yes it also came with instructions on how to put together which I admit were not well written. Inside the box we had two stainless steel pieces, a charcoal filter, a shell shaped plastic housing and a pump. Whilst it was bought for the new kitten’s arrival I may as well use it before they arrive. I already had a water fountain running but decided to set this one up also to encourage her to keep hydrated. Well, the water fountain arrived on the hottest day of the year and Dyson was not happy with the heat. BUT, does it work as expected? Whilst I like nice design the fountain’s principle function is to encourage cats to regularly drink and supply them with clean fresh water. The stainless steel does look a lot smarter than the plastic versions. Whilst the name of this fountain is a mouthful, it is actually a sleek and compact design. Hence, I tried out the Pioneer Pet Stainless Steel Fountain Raindrop Design. I have used plastic water fountains in the past but decided I wanted something that looked a little more stylish. I am about to get another kitten so wanted a second water fountain as my cats could be separated if needed.
