New Water Bottle?
by CucumberMouse Sun 13 May 2018, 5:58 pm
Hello everyone 
I havn't been on as much as I'd like to be lately because of school... but hopefully that'll be changing soon. I wasn't really sure how to start this topic, so I'll just go ahead and say that 
Anyways, I was at petsmart recently and found that they had come out with a new type of water bottle for small animals. It was a type of "non drip" water bottle, which usually means a spring loaded one. However, I decided to check out the new bottle and found that it didn't seem to be spring loaded. From what I was able to see, the bottle had 2 or 3 little "dripper balls" (I have no idea what they're called...) in the spout, rather than just one. The end of the spout also seemed to have a weak magnet in it to hold the dripper balls in place. The magnet seemed weak enough for a mouse to still be able to puck the little balls back. I was just wondering if this water bottle would still be safe, and if the magnetic tip would mess with the mouse in any way.
It was a great choice bottle, but it's not on petsmart's website yet, so hopefully the description I gave will be good enough. Thanks in advance

I would just make sure they were able to get it to release water with no problem. Otherwise, it should be fine. Let us know how you like it.

I feel like if the magnet s strong enough, just like a spring loaded bottle it could possibly pinch their tongue, but other than that it seems like a good option.
