The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I don't know about anyone else, but I gave up on these water fountain style bowls ages ago. They're always made out of plastic and they always grow nasty shit in them and they are super hard to clean. Then if you scratch the plastic while cleaning it it just grows even more stuff the next time and you end up in a vicious cycle. ๐ฉ
I'm back to plain old porcelain bowls from the pet store
We have 2 ceramic water fountains that don't have these problems.
The pump is hard to clean, but it's worth it for the amount of water our little guy drinks.
I have a steel one, dishwasher every couple weeks cleans it out nicely
Yeah, the stainless steel ones are great if you have a dishwasher. I can understand if people don't want the upkeep of replacing filters and that black ring thing around the pump, though. And honestly the pump itself needs to be replaced every 1.5-2 years even if you clean it well.
My cat would always try to drink out of people cups, so I conceded. There are tea cups on the ground in the hallway for him.
