clorine tab in. This helps keep moss and other nasties from growing.


Hmmm... hard water (with dissolved "spooge"), chlorine, and "moss and other
nasties" all draining into your cats' drinking dish. They must really love
you!

Actually, they do. G And the small clorine tabs when dissolved in
the 10 gallon reserve of the cooler itself then piddled out a small
bit at at a time doesnt seem to bother them either.

Considering what the water quality is here of puddles left after a
rain storm..seriously alkyli ..that doesnt seem to stop them from
drinking either. That 5 gallon box of water, if left untended during
the summer months, will evaporate in less than 36 hours..and its in
deep shade.
