Hi everyone! I just began using those Lixit quick-lock crocks and I LOVE THEM! They are available at www.theferretstore.com and are pretty cheap - under $6.00 each. They attach to the side of the cage and you just turn the bowl to unlock and remove to clean. The base stays attached to the cage. I use the 20 oz ones. One I use for food because I would come home and find my guys' food dish knocked over, and food all over the outside of the cage, meaning that they didn't have food available to them while I was at work all day. I also use one right underneath their water bottle and I fill it with water. They love gulping from a water dish and then when it is gone, they still have their water bottle. They actually use both all day, I have noticed. The best thing about these is that they can't move them or spill them AND they are so easy to take out and clean and change! Just giving a helpful tip! Lisa PS - some good news - my Nala really seems to be responding well from the Lupron shot!!!! :o) [Posted in FML issue 2970]
