Question Is this an issue?

Today I rearrange Luna's bins no problems but her bottle fell over some time later. The issue is its above her nest.
She must of woke up cause she shuffles out her nest and started hissing. It didn't help her bottle was falling AGAIN as I was trying to apply it so I just took it out and had my brother help me fix it and left her be. He had to put it in the second time on another side as I was to sad to bother her again.

I think she's territorial of her nest as she's only hissed twice and it was over her nest. She came out some time later and came up to me fine but tired to bite my finger threw the mesh, is she mad at me? or is it cause my hands had the smell of food on them?

And why is the bottle above her nest? I think you should move it to a place that is out of any nest/hide-outs/bowls.

Because that's where she chose her nest,she's got plenty of room but she chose to be there. I've moved it to the other side already (as said in post.)

My apologies.Anyways, that's a good thing, if you are still having troubles with the water bottle, there's a holder for water bottles that is made out of ceramic(Alfie brand) or the plastic holder (generic brand). They have a hideout while being a holder.

I have used a toilet paper tube with a hole cut in to fit the spout in the past and that's worked fine

No worries, my brother was kind enough to make a diy holder for hamsters like this one-> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2qt8reJIrA
Thank you for the help though~!

Yeah, that looks like a good one - a more complicated version of a toilet paper tube
