Water Bottle Leaks
What is your favorite water bottle? I always keep Butternut's full to prevent leaking but am wondering if there is a better bottle. ❤

Re: Water Bottle Leaks
I always used the classic water bottles, I did try a few others but always came back to those & had no problems with them.
Don't overfill your bottle though, you need an air space to keep it from leaking & screwing the top on too tight can cause leaks too.

Re: Water Bottle Leaks
I use the classic bottles, I've never had any problems with them. I had a living world glass bottle but I wasn't keen on it.

Re: Water Bottle Leaks
I use the Classic water bottles, but I think the Living World bottles are good as well. I swear by the Living World bottles for my guinea pigs.

Re: Water Bottle Leaks
I like the Classic ones too.
I bought a load of the glass living world ones as they couldn't be chewed and the bottles could be washed in hotter water than the plastic ones. Sadly most of mine jammed or failed to deliver water no matter what I did, and the few that were ok stopped working quite quickly - thankfully the pet sitters were on the ball as one stopped working when I was away and they changed it for a spare one. I only have one still in use of all the ones I bought and I keep a close eye on that one.
