Has anyone here got one? How does the water bottle fix on? What are they like? Do your hamsters like it? Pictures would be nice.

i made my own stand for it inside. it would only work for robos how couldn't climb up it though. i don't have pics, but it was the stand of a silent spinner wheel with the water bottle on an elastic band!

I don't have any pics but the water bottle fits on the outside of the cage using suckers and the spout sticks through the little hole in the top half of the cage. If you bought one from new, the Sippy bottle that comes with it has instructions on how to fit it. It looks complicated but its actually easy once you get the hang of it.

My robos are obviously very clever as little Snorre and Are have had no problems at all....all that flinging sand around must be good for their mental abilities.

another 2 options are :-
1. Get a hanging water bottle and just hang it from the bars on the top of the cage.
2. Drill 2 tiny holes in the top of the plastic above the water bottle hole. Then take a hanging water bottle and pass the wire through the tiny holes and the water bottle. There should be enough movement to take the bottle out to fill up without undoing the wire.

I have Robos in these cages and they seem to really like them. Mine have never got on with the sippy bottles and I use a hanging bottle, that seems to work really well. There is plenty of room for toys and hideouts etc and as yet I have never had an escape!! I also like the large access through the wire grill, especially for my robos as I can place my hand in the cage with no difficulty and am not trying to get at them via a small door. Excellent cage all round from my point of view!
