Hmmmm..I think I am reaching the end of my allotted number of posting for
a day!
 
I have several comments.  One...Fuzzies drink a lot of water...That is 100%
normal.  Not to worry.
 
The above quoted post could have been worded wrong, so take this with a
grain of sand.
 
Please, change your ferret's water daily.  Do you (meaning..ALL readers,
not just the person who posted above) like drinking stale water?
 
Also, it is important from a health point of view as well...water bottles
are nice, and big, but bacteria can get into the water in the licking
process, and then start to grow if the temp is right or it finds something
to feed on.  Now your fuzzy will get this new growth in a day or two if the
water is not changed on a regular basis.
 
It is just good husbandry to change your pet's water daily.
