Ferplast Drinky water bottle for small animals 600ml

What is the Ferplast drinky waterer for small animals 600ml?

The Ferplast Drinky 600ml water bottle for small animals is a hydration accessory specifically designed for rodents and small domestic mammals. Manufactured by the renowned brand Ferplast , this bottle waterer offers a 600ml capacity, ideal for ensuring your pet always has fresh, clean water available. Its main benefit is preventing spills and keeping the cage dry , thanks to its anti-drip valve system that only releases water when the animal licks the nozzle.

Characteristics and benefits

• 600 ml capacity: Perfect for cages for rabbits, guinea pigs, ferrets or chinchillas, reducing the frequency of refilling.
• Anti-drip system: The precision valve prevents water loss and keeps the cage bedding dry, preventing bad odors and mold.
• Secure fixing: Includes a clip-on bracket that fits most metal cages, keeping the waterer secure even if the animal plays.
• Resistant material: Made of BPA-free plastic, suitable for continuous use and easy to clean with warm water.
• Stainless steel nozzle: Durable and safe against rodent bites, with a sphere that facilitates controlled water release.
• Transparent and graduated: It allows you to visually monitor the remaining water level without opening the cage.

How to use

Install the water dispenser on the outside of the cage, inserting the nozzle through the bars. Secure the holder with the clip until it is firm. Fill the bottle with fresh, still water and screw the cap on tightly. To prime the system, gently press the metal sphere until a few drops come out. Wash the water dispenser at least once a week with water and a soft brush (no harsh soap) to prevent bacterial buildup. Refer to the product leaflet for specific assembly instructions for your cage model.

Indicated for

This water dispenser is designed for small pets such as rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, rats, mice, chinchillas, degus, and ferrets. It is not recommended for birds or reptiles, as its mechanism requires the animal to lick the sphere.

FAQ

Is it compatible with any type of cage?

Yes, the bracket fits bars up to 1,5 cm thick. For plastic or acrylic cages without bars, you can use an additional adhesive bracket (not included).

How do I stop the water bowl from leaking?

Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly and that the rubber seal is in good condition. If it leaks, check that the nozzle is not clogged and that the bottle is not too full (leave a small amount of air space).

How often should I change the water?

It is recommended to change the water daily, even if the water bowl has a capacity of several days. Stagnant water can develop bacteria, especially in warm environments.

Is it easy to clean?

Yes, all parts are disassembled by hand. Wash them with hot water and a bottle brush. Do not use dishwasher detergent or abrasive products that could scratch the plastic.

Can I use it for dwarf hamsters?

Yes, although the nozzle might be a bit large for very small breeds like the Russian hamster. In that case, see if your pet can lick the sphere; if not, choose a smaller diameter water bottle.

How long does the drinking fountain last?

With proper use and cleaning, it can last for several years. The Ferplast warranty covers manufacturing defects, but natural wear and tear of the gasket or metal sphere may require replacement after intensive use.
