304 stainless steel, no submerged motor. 3 flow modes, app reminders, whisper-quiet, 30 days cordless. Cleaner water, less work.
Check on Kickstarter
Most cat fountains hide a motor inside the same water your cat drinks. It sits there, warming the water and collecting the slime you eventually have to scrub out of a pump housing you can barely reach.
Petnimo 1 does it differently. A sealed magnetic drive lives in a dry, detachable base and spins a propeller through the steel, so no wires, no pump chamber, and no electrical parts ever touch the water. The tank, tray, and spout are 304 stainless steel and come apart in seconds for the dishwasher. A 4-layer filter handles hair, fine particles, heavy metals, and odors. And with up to 30 days of cordless battery, you can finally put the fountain where your cat actually drinks instead of wherever the outlet happens to be.
One design decision. Everything else gets easier.
🐱 We Handed It to Real Cats First
Before asking anyone to back this, we put early units in real homes with real cats and no instructions beyond "use it like you normally would." Then we asked what worked and what didn't. Cats are honest reviewers. They either drink from it or they don't.
🐾 The Motor Never Touches the Water
Traditional fountains hide a pump in the bowl. That's where slime starts, and it's what makes cleaning a fight.
Petnimo 1 keeps the drive in a dry, detachable base. A magnet spins the propeller through the steel, so nothing electrical ever reaches the water. Nothing submerged, nothing to scrub.
🦾 304 Stainless Steel Where It Counts
The parts your cat drinks from every day should be made with intention.
That’s why Petnimo 1 uses 304-grade stainless steel for the tank, tray, and spout. It’s smooth, durable, easy to rinse, and naturally more resistant to scratches and lingering odors than everyday plastic surfaces.
💧 Apart in Seconds. Into the Dishwasher.
A fountain only stays clean if cleaning it feels easy. Most fountains fail that test, with a pump to open and small parts that never quite come clean.
Petnimo 1 lifts apart in seconds. Tank, tray, and spout go straight in the dishwasher, then click back together just as fast. Nothing hidden under the surface, nothing you'll put off.
🔄 Apart in Seconds. Into the Dishwasher.
Circulating water picks things up all day: loose hair, litter dust, crumbs, and whatever the tap already carried.
Petnimo 1 filters every drop through four layers. Non-woven fabric catches hair and debris, ion-exchange resin helps reduce heavy metals, activated carbon handles odors, and a final fabric layer catches fine particles on the way out. Swap the filter every 2 weeks for one cat, weekly for two. The app reminds you.
0️⃣ Up to 30 Days Without a Cord. Zero Days Without Water.
Cats don't pick where to drink based on where the outlets are. They drink where they already spend time: by a window, next to a favorite chair, well away from the food bowl and the litter box.
A 5,000 mAh battery runs Petnimo 1 for up to 30 days in sensor mode, so placement is your decision instead of the wiring's. No cable across the floor, no competing for the one socket behind the couch.
And when the battery does run low, plug it in and keep going. Petnimo 1 runs normally while charging, so a flat battery never means an empty bowl. Years from now, when the cell holds less than it used to, the fountain still works exactly the same on the cord. Cordless is the convenience. Corded is the guarantee.
🧠 Smart, Without Being Needy
Connect Petnimo 1 to HomeSmart for filter reminders, battery status, flow control, and on/off from your phone. Or don't.
Continuous, Sensor, and Timer modes all switch right on the device, and the LED in the base shifts between blue, green, and purple so you can see the active mode at a glance. No Wi-Fi required, no account needed, no app standing between your cat and a drink.
🐾 Not Just a Pet Fountain. Part of Your Home.
Petnimo 1 was designed to live where your cat drinks and where you see it. Its polished 304-grade stainless steel body is designed to feel at home alongside the things you've chosen with care. Without a cord tying it to the nearest outlet, it can be placed where it looks and works best, whether beside a window, in the living room, or your cat's favorite corner.
🤫 Quiet Enough to Forget It's There
A fountain that hums, gurgles, or rattles gets unplugged. Then the water sits still, and you're back to a bowl.
Petnimo 1 runs under 30 dB. For reference, a quiet library sits around 40, and a refrigerator hum is close to 45. This is below both. Part of that is the drive sitting outside the tank rather than vibrating inside it, and part is a spout designed to let water fall rather than splash.
In Sensor mode it goes further and simply stops. No flow, no sound, until your cat approaches. Put it in a bedroom, a home office, or beside the couch, and it stays out of your evening entirely.

⚖️ What Changes When the Motor Comes Out
One decision separates Petnimo 1 from the fountain currently sitting in your kitchen. Here's what it changes in practice.
💡 One Filter. Two Weeks. No Thinking Required.
Filters are the part everyone forgets, right up until the water starts to smell. So Petnimo 1 keeps track instead.
The app tells you when a change is due, based on how many pets you have. One cat runs two weeks on a filter. Two cats or a small dog run through one a week. Swapping it takes about ten seconds: lift the tray, pull the old cartridge, soak the new one, slide it in.
Order filters when you need them, or set up a subscription and they arrive on schedule without you thinking about it again.
