That's good question! Edit sorry this posted before I finished...
There's lots of ideas for water drainage here: (it a bit of a get creative thing

I personally caulk the bottom rim of the cage to avoid bacteria growth, like this:
It's then recommend to put a drainage tray under the cage to collect access water. I use this one:
