[Gpdd] Misc: water bottles

[keneeto]

Hello,

I'm glad to read that I am not the only one with water
bottle woes. No 
matter what type of water bottle I used , there would
be water spillage 
in the cage.  My bored piggies would drink sometimes
for 15 minutes 
sessions while rattling their bottle the entire time. 
The sound alone 
and not to mention the excess water waste (& pee)
tended to get on my 
nerves.  To soak up the spillage I did use a brick
size chuck of wood 
which absorbed the water well and dried out between
dousings.

Now my three little piglets only use a water bottle
when I'm away and 
they stay over with the critter sitters.  At home I
now use this bowl 
made by Castlemere Creations. I bought it on discount
at Ross Dress for 
Less for about $3.99 it's here listed on Petsmart as: 
Urban Paws 6" 
Round Bowl - 2 Cups

I like the wide lip on the top edge of the bowl which
allows for the 
piggies to comfortably stand on while they dip to sip
the water. With 
the bowl they only drink for a minute or two. No more
marathon guzzling 
as with the water bottle.  So no more excess water
mess or excess pee 
mess and no more constant bottle rattling.

Good luck everyone,
