I need to stop my cat drinking vase water or secure it so she can't knock it over?!?

Cats would rather drink from a dirty puddle then a clean dish if they had there way. I bought a small fountain that I put on the floor, because I like the sound of running water. Well, guess who drinks from the fountain. I still fill her bowl, but I really don't think I need to. She never drinks from it. I bought my fountain at a rummage sale which is in perfect condition. I thought I bought it for myself, but I'm willing to share. It looks like bamboo and the water comes down in four different directions straight down. So kitty has her choice of which on she wants to drink from. She drinks the water as it's coming down. You might want to consider the same. He/she will be drawn to the fountain and then will leave your plants alone.

Maybe I am wrong, but I heard that sugar is good and keeps the plants looking better, for a long time. Maybe your cat won't like sweeten water? Don't put too much : one teaspoon to one tablespoon; depends how big the vase is. Vinegar or lemon sounds good, too. Think about it. If she'll not like it she'll not drink it, anyway.

Also, to secure the vase, place small marbles in it. That's what I am doing when the vase is too narrow or tall, or too small for the flowers I put in.

I used to have a tall glass vase that I rooted cuttings in, and my Tubby cat enjoyed to drink water out of that vase, exceptionally if it grew eco-friendly algae in it. If the water point sank under the place she could attain it, she in simple terms jammed her face in deep and many times wound up tipping the vase over. while Tubby have been given previous, she enjoyed to spend hours napping beside the fence in the coloration of the pyracantha. I saved the vase crammed up and propped against the fence for her, so she could consistently get a drink from her fashionable fountain. I in no way stumbled on the thank you to end her in need of emptying the vase and putting it away in the cabinet. Your terrific wager is to do as I did, and in simple terms shop the water point crowned up. or you could bypass to a storage sale or something and get her her own vase. Now I actual have a cat that extremely likes to drink out of my husband's fashionable espresso mug; we're not specific yet who is going to win this conflict of wills. somewhat lemon juice or vinegar won't injury your cat, yet does not that is in simple terms as hassle-free to easily shop the water point intense? in case you could screw a watch bolt into the wall, you could loop a cord from it around the vase and look after it back to the attention bolt. this would help shop the vase upright.

well...please let me know the answer that works...I haven't had flowers in a vase in I dont know how long, lol because of my 3 cats, it wasn't worth the hassle for me lol, if they weren't trying to knock it over, they were trying to eat the flowers :(
