20080251029 | DIFFUSER AND ANCHOR - An aquarium aerator unit includes an anchor that is weighted by an aquarium bedding material. The anchor includes a lower portion that has a defined edge and spaced-apart side sections proximate to the lower portion. An inner space is formed between the side sections above the lower portion. The defined edge provides a shovel edge that eases the lower portion into the bedding material and the inner space storing the bedding material to enhance stability and aesthetics. | 10-16-2008 |
20080314329 | BIRDCAGE FEEDER - A birdcage feeder for feeding a bird includes a feeding device that holds a quantity of feed for consumption by the bird, a base having a retaining portion for retaining the feeding device and a feeding portion for receiving feed from the feeding device. The feeding portion is disposed substantially on the inside of a birdcage and the feeding device is disposed outside of the birdcage. A passageway is wider than a spacing between two adjacent wires of a wirewall for passing feed from the feeding device to the feeding portion. | 12-25-2008 |
20100206241 | SMALL ANIMAL ENTERTAINMENT, EXERCISE AND INTERACTION STRUCTURE - A small animal structure includes several modular units slideably interconnected to form a maze and at least one end cap secured to at least one modular unit. The modular units have a common bottom edge defining an open bottom of the small animal structure. A combination of a small-animal structure and a small-animal cage includes modular units slideably interconnected to form a maze. The modular units have a common bottom edge defining an open bottom of the small-animal structure. The small-animal structure is mounted on a floor of the small animal cage. | 08-19-2010 |
20110061603 | ANIMAL CONDUIT - An animal conduit includes a first and a second longitudinal segment. Each segment includes ridges extending inward toward a longitudinal centerline of the animal conduit. The ridges differ in a dimension extending inward and forming a first and second transverse conduit opening dimension that differ. | 03-17-2011 |
20110203527 | SMALL ANIMAL HABITAT - A small animal habitat includes a base, a wall extension, and a roof that define an interior space. In the interior space, an animal entertainment device is positioned distal from the base and a platform is spaced from the base providing access to the entertainment device. A climbing structure permits access to the platform. A first animal traversable path from the base to the animal entertainment device includes a first substantially vertical climb and a first substantially horizontal traverse on the platform. A second animal traversable path from the base to the port includes the first substantially vertical climb, a second substantially horizontal traverse on the platform, and a second substantially vertical climb to a port in the roof. | 08-25-2011 |
20120227674 | LOCKING SYSTEM FOR A SMALL ANIMAL HABITAT - A locking system for a small animal habitat includes a latch having a strike member and a catch having a first and a second catch section. A portion of the strike member slides over at least on catch section to secure latch to the catch. An end of the strike member slides over the first catch section by the force of gravity. A pet habitat includes a locking system having a latch having a strike member and a catch having a first and a second catch section. A portion of the strike member slides over at least on catch section to secure latch to the catch. An end of the strike member slides over the first catch section by the force of gravity. When the pet habitat is placed in an open position when the top portion is hingedly moved away from the bottom portion and the top portion is released from the open position, the latch engages the catch so that the end of the strike member slides over the first catch section by the force of gravity. | 09-13-2012 |
20120227677 | ENTERTAINMENT DEVICE FOR A SMALL ANIMAL HABITAT - An animal entertainment device includes an animal powered wheel that has a pair of axle ends, each axle end having a first and second circumferential wheel having different diameters and a pair of first rails and a pair of second rails. The first circumferential wheels engages the first pair of rails in a traversable portion of the first rails, the second circumferential wheels engages the second pair of rails in an end portion of the second rails to return the animal powered wheel to the traversable portion. | 09-13-2012 |
20140373788 | Treat Dispenser - One embodiment of a treat dispenser for an animal comprises a first and second chamber separated at a junction of the chambers by a dividing wall, wherein each chamber is formed from a skeletal framework, wherein the skeletal framework of the first chamber is substantially open and the skeletal framework of the second chamber is substantially closed, and further comprising a sound device disposed within the second chamber. | 12-25-2014 |
