ABSTRACT:
A drinking bowl for household pets having an agitator is disclosed to prevent the water in the drinking bowl from remaining stagnant when a household pet is not drinking therefrom. The agitator may be an aerating device such as an air pump, a rotating impeller, or an acoustic or mechanical driver. The agitation may induce a circulation in the water so that debris floating therein can be collected. A backflow preventing device may also be included.
