Just curious what everyone gives their pets. :)

Mine get distilled tap water. When I'm older, I'm going to buy purified water. More convenient than distilling water lol.

We buy bottles of "drinking water" (that is what it says on the label). All animals get this water, so I chose bottled water.

I usually boil the water but if I'm too lazy to boil water, I filter it. We were lucky enough to buy a couple filter bottles last year. Funny story, my brother tried filtering hot chocolate in the bottle. Needless to say, we have one less bottle to use.

We have a PUR Ultimate water filter. :) The dogs actually like the water from the water hose outside the best, though. :rolleyes:

The rats and the cats get distilled bottled water. We use Ice Mouthain water for them. They love it, because it's freezing cold from the fridge. :D

I read that if you want to have dechlorinated water, you can got to the pet shops and buy one for a fish tank that will work just as good for dechlorinating your drinking water. :) That's what I'm going to do soon! :D

Any water as long as it has TONS of ice cubes in the bowl!!
(but they don't stay IN the bowl for very long!):D

Um just regular old tap water. I drink it, so I don't see why they can't! lol

Tap water. We drink from the water cooler though, but if Mick is willing to drink out of a puddle...;)

I give them tap water when i change the bottle, and when I fill the bowl for my aunt's dogs I use the water tap in the fridge which I think is purified, but I voted tap. The first time we gave the rats water it was from a bottle, but I don't think we've been doing it since then.

I have a PUR filter on my tap. They get that in a PetMate water fountain which also filters the water.

all the critters get tap water, we drink bottled sprig water though, thats too expensive for al the animals to drink to for all the critters we have 8 bottles to fill everyday, and the dogs have a great big dish that needs filled several times a day, that would come to a lot of money if they all drank spring water!:eek:

tap water because it has all of the minerals in it still, the vets told us bottled water is not the best for them:confused:

Just tap water, although Huney likes to drink from puddles in the yard the best:rolleyes:

We have some thing with a long name that i forget how to spell, or even what it is. It's a little fountain type thing that's near our faucet and the water is filtered/purified.

Tastes MUCH better than normal tap water. You can even smell the difference in chlorine.

I have a Brita Pitcher that I fill their water bowls with, but they always drink out of the fish bowl. What is so special about fishy water!!??

Tap water, but sometimes from our water filter thing.
