Warm water for bottles

Just a question? When people put warm water in the water bottles does it have to be boiled water or can it be warm water from the tap?:?

My bottles have never frozen yet but thought they might like to try it on cold nights.
 
hot tap water contains loads of bacteria and minerals, so you should never drink it or use it for cooking. When you are adding boiling water from the kettle to a rabbit's bottle or bowl, ALWAYS 3 quarter fill the bowl/bottle with cold tap water first - then it won't melt ;)
 
I use it from the kettle too and add it to some cold, it doesn't melt ceramic bowls or glass bottles but can crack them if there is a drastic temperature change.
