Disclosed is a cat litter additive including at least one selected from a first additive made by pulverizing, mixing and sintering zeolite and rice bran and a fifth additive made by pulverizing, mixing and sintering zeolite, bentonite, and rice bran, so that the cat litter additive has excellent antimicrobial and odor-removing functions.

The collapsible and height adjustable shower chair device disclosed herein may allow a user to seat and support a child while in the shower for washing. The device may collapse down into a form factor suitable for storing away, while also providing a height adjustment so that a child is placed at an appropriate height for where a second user may attend to the child. The feet of the device may provide traction and stability to the collapsible and height adjustable shower chair device so that it does not slide on a wet surface and so that it does not tilt forward due to the child shifting their weight. The device may further comprise safety features such as, for example, side bolsters or a seat belt to prevent a child from falling out of the device.

A pressure activated recharging cooling platform for cooling an object is provided. The cooling platform comprises a temperature regulation layer, a support layer, and a channeled covering layer. The temperature regulation layer is adapted to hold a composition. The temperature regulation layer has a plurality of angled segments, wherein angled segments within a sealed perimeter of the temperature regulation layer are formed by a top side and a bottom side at a predefined distance, and channels, wherein the channels substantially form sides by contacting the top side with the bottom side at a distance lesser than the predefined distance. The support layer is substantially bonded to the bottom side of the temperature regulation layer and is comprised of material sufficiently pliable to deform and sufficiently rigid to withstand collapse in response to the weight of the object. The channeled covering layer encompasses the support and temperature regulation layers.

An animal toilet includes a body portion, and a partition portion. The body portion has a bottom face part and a side face part, and is in a box shape. The partition portion is in a plate shape, and divides the inside of the body portion vertically. The partition portion has a through hole that allows urine to pass therethrough. The thickness of the partition portion in a surrounding part around the through hole is smaller than the thickness of the partition portion in a remaining part that is the part other than the surrounding part.

A water absorption treatment material absorbs a liquid containing a malodorous substance, and includes a first grain and a second grain. The first grain contains a metal having a deodorizing function. The second grain does not contain a metal having a deodorizing function.

A base for supporting a piezoelectric sensor which includes a generally planar support frame having an opening and a housing mounted in the opening. The housing has an upper portion including a sensor and a lower portion including a biasing member in contact with the sensor. The sensor is biased by the biasing force of the biasing member against the upper portion of the housing, whereby the upper portion is in turn biased by the biasing force against a floor of a cage positioned on the upper side of the support frame.

An animal litter composition having reduced adhesive properties, and a related method, are disclosed. The animal litter can include a clay-based liquid absorbing material, a filler including one or both of the following: a non-absorbent, non-soluble substrate; an absorbent substrate, and at least one oil present in an amount such that the animal litter composition has a total oil content of about 1.0% by weight to about 7.5% by weight based on the total weight of the animal litter composition.

A bulk animal bedding material is presented comprising shredded and fiberized natural lignocellulosic material vigorously blended with a solvent and small grain particles (SGPs) to form twisted, curled, clumped, and rolled fibers with the SGPs integrated within and/or encasing said fibers.

A pelletized, environmentally friendly animal litter. The animal litter includes birch bark waste in pellet form that is mostly hydrophobic to allow liquid waste to quickly pass therethrough while trapping a small amount of waste therein that adheres to the surface of the pellet and is then absorbed over time. The litter is used in a litter box system that includes a base, a drawer slidably received therein for capturing waste in a preferred absorbent pad and a removeable grate suspended thereover for retaining the litter thereover. The drawer defines a container of sufficient volume to receive all of the litter when a standard amount of litter is used to fill the box which improves ease in changing litter by removing the grate and allowing the litter to drop into the drawer.

A modular blanket comprising of separate blanket materials of varying size and fastening mechanisms including buttons and zippers. The blanket may be comprised of traditional blanket material such as wool or cloth and be used for standard purposes of warmth or comfort. Additionally, the blanket may be comprised other material such as fiberglass, to be used for commercial or public purposes, such as the extinguishing of a fire. The fastening mechanisms including, but not limited to buttons or zippers are attached along the lateral sides of such blanket material to allow quick and easy assembly and disassembly.
