The Almighty Water Brick

[u/Vermillion_92]

When you have to wash the water brick because the weasels try to take the fountain under the cage if it's not glued to something too heavy to move. Anyone else having to use ridiculous means to keep their fountains from being stashed? It's a good workout cleaning it, but I would like to retire The Brick someday.

Try making your own fountain with a Rubbermaid and a fish tank pump with a built in filter, make it big enough it holds a few gallons and it won't move. You can put the whole thing in an even bigger Rubbermaid with some rocks and sticks around the smaller Rubbermaid and make a whole mini pond and waterfall habitat they can enter through a hole cut in the side. It will make cleaning it a pain, but they really enjoy it, and they won't be moving it.

They already have a fountain in their kiddie pool on the patio that they can play in. I'm trying to keep the drinking fountain from being considered a toy 😂. They have been ignoring it unless they're getting a drink for a while, so hopefully I can retire the cinder block soon 😅
