A lot of times they don’t like the food source to be near the water source. Sometimes if you put the food bowl and water bowl in different rooms they will become a lot more amenable to the water bowl.

Of course sometimes not, because they are just bein little weirdos

Unless it's my cat. Got heavily filtered water and use it to fill 3 different fountain bowls in different parts of the house (none near the food source, but I did that because if they are, she'll eat her food over them...) and the cat still demands I turn the sink on instead. Same exact water, and even though I change her water out almost every other day, the sink wins. Just glad she hasn't figured out how to turn it on yet...

Funny enough the last fountain I got looks like a faucet and she's like "nah I'm not stupid, turn the sink on."
