Question
i have had about 3 bottle and they all eventually don't work is it okay to just put water in a small dish

Answer
Hi Sabatha,

it is fine to put in a small dish of water - the hamsters can drink out of a dish fine.

The only problem you might have is that the sawdust often gets in the water and soaks it up.

So make sure you check the dish every day and replace it if you need to.

Kind Regards,

Tammy
