FLOOR INSERTS FOR WIRE CAGES
Rodents maintained long-term in wire bottom cages have the potential to develop
lesions on their paws. The Lomir Cozee Pad® is designed to reduce this problem.
The Cozee Pad® is a dual purpose device. When placed on the floor inside the
cage provides a secure location preferred by rodents, while the plastic retains
warmth and may also be chewed by the animal.
Manufactured from polypropylene sheet that is FDA and USDA approved,
making it safe to ingest. Edges of the floor are rounded for safety and may be
sanitize in either a cage wash or an autoclave.
In addition to providing a resting place, the Cozee Pad® is safe to ingest and
doubles as a chew device allowing the animal hours of natural gnawing activity
which can reduce the need for teeth clipping.
The natural insulating properties of polypropylene mean that the floor is an
enhanced location for the animal, in particular after procedures such as anesthesia
or surgery where maintenance of body temperature is important.
Cozee Pad can also be treated as a disposable item.
CHEWABLE PUCKS FOR RATS AND MICE
Rodent Gnaw Pucks® are available in two sizes for both rats and
mice. Manufactured from a solid nylon material that is FDA and
USDA approved, making it safe to ingest.
The knurled edge of the Gnaw Pucks® gives the animal a slightly
rough edge to gnaw upon. The rat and mouse sizes allow for
extended periods of gnawing and chewing, reducing the requirement
for teeth clipping. Nylon is a highly inert material; pucks may
be sanitized in a cage wash, autoclave or chemical solution.
Independent certificate of analysis to support GLP compliance.
