I don't change my hamster's water daily. Probably every three days... we've left our cat for five days. Although fresh water is preferred, as long as they have access to it and it's clean, I don't see a problem.

Then again, *I'll* drink water that's a couple days old and I don't taste a difference. Water doesn't go bad, I think it just tastes a little stale after a week.
