ABSTRACT:
A water dispenser for attachment to an animal cage or the like has a bottle from which a drinking tube extends. The opening for filling the bottle is situated at the front wall of the bottle which faces the cage. In the preferred form, a threaded rim encircles the opening and a threaded closure cap engages on the rim. The bottle may be made of plastic while the closure cap is formed of metal or other relatively hard material. The protruding rim and hard closure cap hold the bottle away from the cage to prevent gnawing or clawing of softer portions of the dispenser. The frontal location also enables the opening to be large and thereby facilitates cleaning of the bottle. A resilient hanger rod clasps the rim of the opening and has outward extending hooked ends for engaging the cage. Also in the preferred form, gripping of the bottle is facilitated by recesses in the side walls which are adjacent a portion of the back wall that is of reduced width.
