'I wonder if there's a spinning wheel too': Mum sparks heated debate after she turns a RODENT water feeder into a drink bottle for her thirsty daughter

  • A woman has shared a photo of her using a rodent feeder as a bottle for her child 
  • The photo was later shared in a group designed to roast Kmart 'hacks' 
  • The post received thousands of likes and comments from group members  

A mother has caused a stir on the internet with her shocking 'hack' that aims to provide her daughter with water throughout the night.

The photo posted online shows that she has attached a rodent water feeder to the side of her child's bed.

The post was shared in an Australian Facebook group designed to 'roast' people's Kmart ideas. 

The idea apparently came about as the child kept waking up thirsty and would ask for water, so this was the mother's solution.

'Christ in a handbasket! WTF are you doing to the kids?,' the person who shared the photo wrote.

At the time of writing the post had amassed more than two thousand comments.  

Some commenters said the mother 'clearly doesn't know what a litre water bottle is' and suggested that she should instead use no-spill sippy cups. 

'I wonder if there is a spinning wheel for them to exercise on also,' one group member said.

'I wonder if there's newspaper on the floor,' said another. 

The group that the post was shared in was created so that social media users could hit back at the endless 'Kmart hacks' that fill their Facebook news feeds every day.

It is here that the most ridiculous budget ideas are ridiculed in tongue-in-cheek posts.
