They like running water, but that doesn't explain the disdain for fountains.
I read that it could also be the owners scent, i.e. they drank this water and didn't die, so it must me safe.
I can't speak on any specific disdain for fountains, since my cats have always used theirs. I figure the preference for sink or shower water is related to scarcity. The water fountains are always available, but they can only get the special water on rarer occasions.
