Small pets drink all day, and a bottle that drips or runs dry makes a mess and a worry. The Critter Bright holds its water behind a vacuum seal, so the water stays put until your pet drinks it.
The body is clear, so you can read the water level without pulling the bottle off the cage. The neon tint brightens a dim corner, and the BPA-free plastic is made in the USA, which makes it a simple, clean choice for a daily water routine.
Hamsters, mice, rats and small birds are one group, and guinea pigs, ferrets and small rabbits are another. Pick the bottle that suits the animal in your cage.

Why a bottle beats an open bowl
An open bowl fills with bedding, shavings and droppings in no time. A bottle keeps the water inside and away from the litter, so what your pet drinks stays cleaner between refills.
Less spilled water also means less wet bedding. A dry cage is easier to keep fresh, and you spend less time scrubbing the floor and changing damp shavings.
The clear body earns its keep at every refill. You can see how much is left from across the room and know when to top up, instead of pulling every bottle off the cage to check it.

How to set up the vacuum seal
The seal does the work once it's set. Fill the bottle to the top before you cap it, because a full bottle is what lets the seal form.
- Fill the bottle to the top.
- Put the cap on tight.
- Expect some dripping until the vacuum seal forms. That's normal, and it stops once the seal is set.
Good to know
- Rinse the spout when you refill so buildup doesn't collect in the water.
- Keep a spare bottle so a clean one is ready on cleaning day.
- If water keeps dripping after the seal should have formed, take the cap off, check the seal and fill the bottle to the top before you try again.
- Pick a spot on the cage where your pet can reach the spout easily and the bottle stays out of the litter.
