If fish ever jump out your cat will help you pick it up.

I think it depends on your cat.
Lazy Maine Coon probably not a problem. Hyperactive Bengal may be curious and try to go fishing. Most don't like to get wet. I don't have a problem with my cat other than her trying to drink out of the ATO water. Simple lid solved that. |

My tank is in the kitchen/dining area beside a counter. Our cat will sit on the counter or a chair and watch the fish for hours, but has never tried to jump in. He's curious but doesn't seem to bother them. My new tank won't be as accessible but last night caught him standing on his hind legs trying to look in it. I've caught him drinking the top up water as well...lid is coming....lol
My dog only cares when something new is added and it's because he gets jealous the attention isn't on him. |

I have 1 cat that could care less about the tank, the kitten stares at the tank but has yet to make a move, I was concerned about claws and the acrylic tank but I am shutting that down now and most likely cutting it up anyway so I'm not so worried now.

I have 4 cats and none of them give a hoot about the fish tanks. With the stand my SW is 2 feet off the ground, beside the fireplace which has a 2ft wide ledge 1ft off the ground. Only the dog cares about the tanks, the most the youngest cat will do is put his 2 front paws on the fireplace ledge and sniff the QT tank that I have on the ledge. The FW tanks are in rooms the cats dont usually go in but are super accessable by them and they just dont care. The SW and FW tanks are however covered in dog snot. I have a egg crate top just incase a cat does decide to care
