Try putting water down for her in various parts of the house, and also try containers of different shapes and different materials--stainless, ceramic, glass, etc. You can also try raising a bowl to toilet height. My current dog likes this fountain, which doesn't hold a lot of water but works OK. He also likes to drink water from big, heavy glass beer mugs.
Some cats don't like a water bowl near their food bowl, so you could try moving the water dish elsewhere. I have a cat that will simply refuse to drink out of a still water bowl (and doesn't care for wet food), but loves to drink out of the faucet when I turn it on, so now our two cats share this fountain: Drinkwell Avalon (70 oz)
There are various sizes, but we've had ours for a couple months now and we're quite happy with it. The pump is quiet and it's easy to clean. Probably the biggest issue is just the ongoing purchasing of filters, but I've just got them on a subscription from Amazon.
Lastly, get with your vet as a precaution so you can make sure there's not an underlying issue. Keep us updated (with pictures :) )!
Yeah, plastics are great at causing feline acne. My cat had it too, and I switched from the plastic Drinkwell Platinum fountain which my father gifted us to the porcelain Drinkwell Avalon.
It was a big investment, but it's also far easier for me to refill (you literally just pour water in instead of lugging around the water chamber and turning it over like a Poland Springs fountain).
His acne's cleared up since.
