I have found the perfect solution to ferrets who like to drink out of bowls rather than water bottles, but always spill the bowls. Petsmart sells bowls that screw onto the sides of the cage. They come in a variety of sizes, and the part that screws on has a slit in it, so it will fit between the wires of a cage. I think they cost between $6 - $10, depending on the size you want. I'm sure they must sell them at other stores, too, that's just the place I've seen them. If you can't find 'em near the ferret supplies, look in bird section. Now my furries always have fresh water, and it's easy for me to clean out! I also keep a water bottle in there, too, just because I think it's a good idea to keep two sources of water available, in case of emergency. Hope this isn't a repeat and that it helps somebody.
