If you're going to comment, at least make an ATTEMPT to comprehend what the OP said. Not once did anyone say anything about being able to afford a new dish. The ONLY thing about $ that was said is that shipping it back would be more than the bowl is worth. Doesn't mean he can't afford it, just that it's not worth paying to ship. There's quite a difference.

Yeah, I failed to see where op mentioned they couldn't afford a new dish, or vet bill. 
OP, I'm not sure what would be safe. Most epoxies I've been around smell terrible, so I wouldn't use in a water dish just to be safe.
If nothing ever changed, there would be no butterflies.

Fish tank silicone, perfectly safe when dry. Just make sure to let it dry (24 hours I think), the fumes are awful.

Re: Broken water dish.
I would also suggest aquarium sealant as I've used it to replace broken glass in tanks, which are then used to house reptiles, and haven't had any problems.
There is nothing wrong with implementing a cheap or even free, but still workable and safe solution to a problem if it means you can save your dollars for more important expenditures, like vet bills, quality thermostats, or new acquisitions.

You mean replacing things like the stick on thermometer strip, dial hygrometer, and jury rigged thermostat probe stuck to the inside of the tank with a raggedy scrap of foil tape? I mean, there's nothing wrong with those, right?
