An odor treatment dispenser is disclosed for an odor. The device comprises a housing having a canister channel. An aperture traverses the housing. A canister contains an odor treatment substance positioned within the canister channel. An actuator engages the canister for dispensing the odor treatment substance through the aperture for treating the odor.

An animal litter, process for preparing the animal litter and a method for removal of animal waste using the animal litter are provided. The animal litter generally includes at least about 10 weight % finely ground pine wood powder. Further the animal litter includes a lubricant and a cohesiveness agent. The animal litter is in the form of discrete plural particles which lend to agglomerate when wetted.

An aerobic treatment system includes a plurality of highly porous, high surface area, inert, synthetic, inorganic, or natural material particles, having a specific gravity of less than 1.0 that float on an enclosed aqueous environment whereby plants and/or microbes can be grown thereon and/or animals such as fish can be raised therein. The inert particles trap air bubbles and nutrients for the growth of diverse types of plants, animals, or microbial systems, which enable phyto treatment of an aqueous waterbody with the ability to limit the growth of unwanted plant and algae such as blue-green algae. The above aerobic bio treatment system contains desirably bioremediation media having one or more microorganisms that are able to withstand system shocks while minimizing energy usage associated with aeration. The system can generally be utilized in any aqueous environment such as waste water and/or polluted water in an enclosed area such as a container, tank, pond, lake, or the like.

The present disclosure is directed to devices and kits configured to displace noxious odors generated by pet waste or excrement from within pet waste receptacles, such as a litter box kept within the pet owner's living space or home to areas existing outside of such owner's living space via a preexisting window therein. More particularly, a flexible, elongated duct is coupled to an exhaust hole in any hooded litter box on one end, and on another end, coupled to an electrically powered fan and universal window vent panel. When the window vent panel is sealedly disposed in a window and the fan is powered on, noxious air within the receptacle is drawn through the exhaust opening in the enclosure, the duct, and an exhaust opening in the window vent panel to an outside of such window.

A poultry cage comprises a resting surface in a horizontal plane having a plurality of openings, a manure collecting surface arranged underneath the resting surface, and a drying air channel comprising a first side wall having a set of first openings for directing drying air towards the manure collecting surface and a set of second openings for directing drying air towards the manure collecting surface. Each first opening directs the drying air at a first angle against a vertical direction towards the manure collecting surface and each second opening directs the drying air at a second angle against a vertical direction towards the manure collecting surface, wherein the first angle being different than the second angle.

An animal litter box (100) includes: a litter-box main portion (1) including an upper container (10) and a lower container (30); an output main portion (60) including an output portion (61); and a position regulator. The upper container (10) includes a plurality of holes (h) passing through the upper container in the up-down direction, and the lower container (30) includes a reception portion (32) that receives excrement that has passed through the plurality of holes (h). The output portion (61) includes: a top surface (61a) that comes into contact with the litter-box main portion (1); and a side wall (61b) extending from an edge of the top surface (61a) in the up-down direction. The output portion (61) outputs a signal in accordance with a magnitude of a force that acts on the top surface (61a). The position regulator includes: a litter-box-side regulating portion (26) disposed on the litter-box main portion (1); and an output-side regulating portion (62) disposed on the output main portion (60). The output-side regulating portion (62) is a portion different from the side wall (61b). The position regulator regulates a relative position between the litter-box main portion (1) and the output main portion (60) in at least one of the front-back direction and the left-right direction.

An assembly and method for conditioning a pet to utilize a toilet when making waste. A primary tray is provided. The primary tray has a first depression, wherein a primary opening is formed in the depression. A plurality of inserts are provided. The inserts progress in size. Each of the inserts defines a central opening that is proportional to the size of the insert. The primary tray is placed on the toilet. The primary opening within the primary tray is covered by the inserts. Litter is added into the depression of the primary tray to entice the pet to utilize the primary tray as a litter box. Over a period of time, the pet will become accustomed to jumping onto the primary tray to make waste. The inserts are removed one at a time. This slowly uncovers the primary opening over a period of time as a pet is conditioned.

A method of health management for a self-cleaning cat litter box is disclosed. The method comprises measuring a first weight of the self-cleaning cat litter box, measuring a second weight of the self-cleaning cat litter box in responsive to a cat entering the self-cleaning cat litter box, identifying the cat entering the self-cleaning cat litter box, measuring a third weight of the self-cleaning cat litter box after the cat leaves the self-cleaning cat litter box, measuring a fourth weight of the self-cleaning cat litter box after the self-cleaning cat litter box performs waste cleaning, and uploading the identified cat with a body weight, a waste weight, and a waste type according to weight differences among the first, second, third and fourth weights.
