Large size is Great for Rabbits

I have two bunnies and this water bottle is very awesome...It is easy to refill and hang on their cage. I love the little turtle which helps see where the water level is. I don't have to refill the huge water bottle often too.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Good Quality for a Large Bottle, doesn't deform easy to hang from cage. Thanks to extra attachment to hold the bottom of bottle onto the cage. Would highly recommend. Love Petco's water bottles because spout is bigger than walmart's water bottles.

I looked at all of the other reviews, and I decided to get my guinea pig a new water bottle because my old one wouldn't give him enough water. I figured this was a good one to buy, and it was in-stock at my local PETCO. I bought it, and i had completely drained itself within 30 minutes. I then put this bottle with my old one's metal drinking piece, and it still leaked. My guinea pig started sneezing because it leaked all over his cage, and it was cold. I had to change my cage, and I'm so returning this. It's so leaky, maybe it's just the one I bought, but it was horrible.

Cute but Junky

Aside from the fact it's got a cool color and a floating turtle water marker this unit is poorly made. Even when directions are followed : a. the unit does not stay secure on the cage bars and falls over. (You have to rig it with tape or ties- which is deemed unsafe to bunnies IMO. b. the water doesn't come out all the time, only when it wants to or if I mess around with it and get it to.
After our bunny went a whole day without water yesterday because it tilted over and no water was coming out I opted to put back the ceramic bowl until we can find something better. I usually love Petco's products but this one is poor junk, a little disappointed.

DO NOT buy this bottle

This bottle leaked its entire contents out into the cage in no time at all. Made the bottom of my rats' cage a complete swamp. Tried putting the lid back on several different times and a fast pace drip continued coming out of the bottle every time. I will be returning this item and not buying another one!

This is a very good first bottle. My rats love it and they use it every night! It does occasionally leak, but only when you first put it in. It also has loads of volume!

This is a great product. I've had it for two years now. It hooks onto the cage perfectly and only leaks when you put the cap on it incorrectly!!!!

does not mount on cage

from West Virgina, WV
My guinea pigs needed new water bottles because when they drink they grip and rip on the water bottle, and have broken the plastic mount, so I had to duck tape it til i received their new ones....
First off they do not fit the cage all they come with is a wire no mount that hooks on then the wire to support it..I also tried to bend the wire so it would fit more tightly on the cage and that didn't work..
The two good things about this product is they don't leak and it has the water level marker other than that i believe they are junk...
so now I'm right back to where i started with duck tape...very disappointed.

I got this bottle for my mice along with a holder. For a month it worked great, with no leaks. After a month, the bottle started leaking and soaking the entire cage until it was empty. Don't get it unless you are going to replace it soon, it was great for one month.

The bottle is constantly falling over with the flimsy holder that was sent with it. We had to rig it to keep it up and stable.

This product leaks a lot! I've had to change the bedding twice and the water bottle hasn't stops leaking since I bought it! It empties in a few hours. I'll be replacing it ASAP. I've tried every angle and which way, but it never works. It was a complete waste of money!

Not happy with this at all. No matter what angle it is attached at or how well I secured it to the cage, the bottle continues to leak all over the cage.

Temporary

Pro: The product doesn't leak and it comes with a cute plastic floating turtle to indicate where the water level is. This turtle can be removed from the bottle.
Eh: The water bottle is type 3 plastic, meaning it's medium grade (not too cheap, not too durable) and will last only a few dishwasher cycles. You should replace this product every now-and-then or buy a glass one.
Con: The metal half-ring (that attaches to the cage bars to keep the water bottle standing up right) seems either awkward or too big for the 4-oz water bottle since it's the same ring for the 8-oz water bottle.
I would recommend this to a friend!

It's a great bottle. It's not leaky and she can't chew it. It's also very easy to take on and off.

Doesn’t Leak

The people who say it leaks may be filling it up wrong. You have to fill it up to the very top so it creates suction. Then it shouldn't leak. If it still does, then I don't know.
