This was surgically removed from my cat’s stomach. It’s rubbery in texture and maybe about an inch long.

This was surgically removed from my cat’s stomach. It’s rubbery in texture and maybe about an inch long. Any ideas ?

Answer: It’s a rubber piece from a cat fountain.

A cat fountain is an automatic water dispenser designed for pets — especially cats — that continuously circulates and filters water to keep it fresh, clean, and appealing. Cats are naturally attracted to running water (it often seems cleaner to them than stagnant water in a bowl), so a fountain can encourage them to drink more, which helps support kidney and urinary tract health.

🐾 Common Features of a Cat Fountain:

  • Recirculating water using a small, low-voltage electric pump
  • Filters (usually charcoal or carbon) to remove impurities
  • Reservoir for holding water
  • Spouts or gentle streams to simulate running water
  • Dish or bowl area where the cat drinks

🧩 What Is the Rubber Piece in a Cat Fountain?
The rubber piece in a cat fountain usually refers to a rubber gasket, seal, or stopper that plays one or more of the following roles:

  • Sealant: Prevents leaks between connected parts (e.g., between the water reservoir and the base or pump).
  • Pump isolation: Cushions the pump to reduce vibration and noise.
  • Safety plug or valve: Sometimes used to cover drain holes or control water flow.
  • Non-slip feet: Small rubber pieces at the base of the fountain to prevent slipping on floors.

🛠️ If your fountain has a missing or worn-out rubber part, it might cause:

  • Water leakage
  • Noisy operation
  • Improper water circulation
  • The pump failing to stay securely in place
