Apartment-dwelling parent of two cats. I test cleanability with swabs, track splash and scatter, and favor compact, dishwasher-safe setups that keep floors dry.

If cleaning is easy, it happens—and cats thrive in tidy routines.

After another midnight scrub of a pretty-but-fiddly fountain, I swabbed it and a plain bowl with an ATP meter. The simple bowl won by a mile and took two minutes to sanitize. Since then, I’ve chased designs that make cleanliness the default, not the chore.

I choose simple geometry, fewer crevices, and dishwasher-safe parts over sculptural designs.
