Water Bottles that Work Properly

[classycritters]

I am looking for glass water bottles that function how they are suppose to without too many issues. What are the best brands out there I can use?

Thank you all!

I use Ryerson's bottles (or you can order them from Shoots as well). They are a glass 16 ounce french square bottle with a rubber stopper and glass tip. They don't leak and are easy to clean and sterilize.

I used to use Lixit's but they either broke or leaked, and with such a small opening, it was very hard to clean them well.

I use glass Lixits, I've never had any problems with them.

I also use the same water bottles as Peggy(Tunes). I get mine from Shoots and they work wonderfully.

Make sure you get two bottles at least, extra bottles are good to have on hand at all times.

^ great advise!
that way you can have a back up and one to use while you are washing the other one

I like to keep two water bottles per cage at all times. What if one stops working or leaks? Then your poor pets are without water. I also will put one at the top and one at the bottom so they always have water conveniently close by

I use the glass Lixit bottles and have never had a problem.

I use the Edstrom bottles but i dont believe they make them anymore. The problem i have with those is that when I hand wash them they leak, and i can't open the spout to clean it... :/

I use the Edstrom bottles but i dont believe they make them anymore.

I have one of those as a back up. I wonder about the fact that the nozzle is brass, though. I've only ever used it for a day once, so Chloe hasn't really been exposed to it, but does anyone have any info on this? I really like it and it would be awesome if I could switch her main bottle out for my edstrom.

To the OP--I have a glass superpet bottle as my main bottle. Although I have had limited problems with it (mostly with the time it takes for the vacuum to be created so it leaks for a few minutes very slowly sometimes. Kind of annoying), there are many accounts of broken or leaking superpet bottles and they are not recommended because of their lack of dependability.
