Because filtering used water is not the same as replacing it.

Read this before buying another filtered cat fountain.
Most fountains pump 1 shared tank of water in a loop. Whatever your cat leaves in the bowl can return to that same reservoir. RYVO takes a different approach: used bowl water goes into a separate waste tank, then a fresh serving comes from a covered clean-water tank.

Most fountains recycle the same tank—even after saliva, fur and food reach the bowl. RYVO empties used water into a separate tank before serving fresh water from a covered clean tank.
RYVO removes used water instead of filtering it again. No slimy cartridges, replacement schedules or recurring filter costs.
Conventional fountains can hide buildup inside submerged pumps, narrow tubes and filter housings. Cleaning means taking everything apart and scrubbing hard-to-reach spaces.
RYVO’s stainless-steel bowl and both tanks lift away. Wash the removable parts, wipe the electrical base and put everything back—it’s ready for the next fill.
Choose up to six water times and three serving sizes. RYVO removes the old water and serves a fresh portion automatically.
With up to 113 days per charge and operation under 30 dB, RYVO can sit where your cat feels comfortable—without an outlet or constant pump hum.
*Battery life varies by schedule, serving size and usage.
Thousands of cat owners have switched to fresher water, easier cleaning and freedom from replacement filters.
From fresher water to easier cleaning and no replacement filters, here’s what cat owners love after making the switch.

“It’s like a mini water bowl that empties and refills itself. The tanks detach easily and are simple to clean. It operates very quietly, and I like that you can put it anywhere. My cats and dog all drink from it now.”

“Setup was easy, and setting the water times was really simple. I love how it gets rid of the old water and gives you fresh water. Highly recommend!”

“Cleaning our old filtered fountains was always a chore—not to mention constantly buying filters. RYVO was easy to set up, runs quietly, and lets us schedule up to six water changes a day. Our cats took to it easily.”
