All kinds of water needing animals will use this plant to obtain water. Birds, rodents, and humans.
There are various methods animals use to find water in the desert.Some obtain their water needs from plants such as the cactusDesert oases are a source of water for migratory birds nd many other creaturesSome animals survive on "metabolic water", the water that is produced when sugars and starches are broken down. Jerboas, for instance, never need to drink.Desert animals are specially adapted to the dry conditions. Most of them do not need to drink water, but obtain sufficient moisture from the foods they eat.Some desert animals burrow down deep to find water.Others are specifically "shaped" to collect water. For example, the body of the thorny devil in Australia is completely covered in sharp spikes which actually collect the moisture that condenses in the early morning (or the occasional rains) and channel it directly down towards its mouth.

It's water from a cactus! The cactus has collected that water!x
two ways animals contribute to the sagurao cactus
If you're referring to their water sources, you're right by inferring that they cannot simply drink water as animals in a jungle can. Instead, they get their hydration from their food. A good example is a cactus; the interior of a cactus is quite juicy, which can provide enough hydration when consumed by animals.
Barrel cacti have an extensive root system that is used to take in water during rainy periods. The water is then stored in the tissues of the plant for drought periods.
