A pet toy including a body having a cavity formed therein for receiving a pet treat. A clip arrangement releasably connects first and second portions of the body. A securing member is located within the cavity and extends between two opposed surfaces of the cavity, and retains a portion of the pet treat within the cavity. The body defines a recess for receiving the securing member. The securing member extends from the first portion and is received in a recess defined in the second portion when the first and second portions are connected.

Animal repellents or deterrents generally work by taking advantage of an animal's natural aversion to something. Animal deterrents are generally deployed in fixed locations to prevent damage to property etc. such as cottages, storage sheds, campsites etc. However, in many instances users such as walkers, hikers, hunters, postal workers or security guards, for example, may need access to an animal deterrent wherever they are. The inventor has established a portable animal deterrent system that provides a high intensity light (for user as either a torch or animal deterrent), the generation of loud noise, and inducement of pain through an electrical discharge to the animal's skin, and pain by using the device as a club. Further, simple control interfaces compatible with one handed operation allow the multiple modes and deterrents to be easily accessed and novel probes on the device allow penetration of an animal's fur.

There is provided a pet treat dispenser for dispensing pet treats. The dispenser includes a dispenser housing with a housing chamber and a treat dispenser opening. The dispenser includes a treat hopper having a treat storage cavity. The treat hopper is formed with the dispenser housing with the treat hopper body received in the housing chamber and with the treat hopper translating between closed and dispensing positions. In the closed position the treat storage cavity is not aligned with the treat dispenser opening. In the dispensing position the dispensing end is positioned adjacent to the treat dispenser opening exposing the treat storage cavity. The dispenser includes a clicking mechanism having a start position and a deflected position. The clicking mechanism deflects upon the treat hopper being translated to the dispensing position and to produce an audible sound upon the clicking mechanism being deflected.

A pet feeder includes a feeder body. A climbing component is vertically disposed in the feeder body. A climbing portion is disposed on an outer surface of the climbing component. The climbing portion enables the outer surface of the climbing component to be rough. The present disclosure has the advantages that: placing the feeder body in a pet box, placing little reptiles in the feeder body, and the little reptiles are stored in the feeder body, so that probability that the little reptiles crawl around in the pet box is reduced and pet feeding environment is improved. The climbing component is disposed for the little reptiles to crawl, so that activity of the little reptiles is maintained.

A diagnosis system and method for detecting various Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in a biological sample by utilizing a smart platform configured to harness animal bio-sensors trained to detect various VOC's which may indicate various pathologies, and by conducting various data collection practices and analysis methods in order to produce output results. The diagnosis system and method is configured to analyze behavioral parameters concerning the animal bio-sensor and provide a non-invasive and safe diagnostic solution that does not involve exposing a patient to radiation or any other potentially harmful procedure.

A device includes a signaling means and a motion sensor, and logic for activating or controlling the signaling means in response to a sensed motion according to an embedded logic. The device may be used as a toy, and may be shaped like a play ball or as a handheld unit. It may be powered from a battery, either chargeable from an AC power source directly or contactless by using induction or by converting electrical energy from harvested kinetic energy. The embedded logic may activate or control the signaling means, predictably or randomly, in response to sensed acceleration magnitude or direction, such as sensing the crossing of a preset threshold or sensing the peak value. The visual means may be a numeric display for displaying a value associated with the count of the number of times the threshold has been exceeded or the peak magnitude of the acceleration sensed.

Proposed is a pet exercise apparatus including a rotary body which is formed in an erected cylindrical shape, has at least one open side surface, and is disposed to be rotatable, so as to stimulate a pet's curiosity and induce spontaneous exercise thereof without harming the pet's emotions or health. The rotary body includes a tube and a movable ball. The tube has a transparent tubular shape, is partially filled with liquid, and is disposed along the inner circumference thereof. The movable ball is positioned near the surface of the liquid filling the tube. The rotary body rotates according to the movement of the pet who chases after the movable ball, so that the position of the movable ball is changed by a change in the position of the surface of the liquid so as to continuously stimulate the pet's curiosity.

Disclosed are a pet food and a manufacturing method thereof. The pet food of the present invention includes a storage body having a can shape, an inner cap sealing an upper end of the storage body and provided in a disposable use, an outer cap detachably coupled to the storage body to cover the inner cap, and a plurality of feed bodies stored in the storage body, wherein a plurality of powder members are mixed in the storage body and when the storage body is shaken before feeding the feed to a pet, the plurality of powder members is coated on the plurality of feed bodies.
