A pet bed system for a pet to use as a pet bed which also includes storage for paperwork, extra toys, clothes, and the like. The pet bed system lessens the amount of space needed for the pet's belongings and keeps all the documentation in a secure location. Three specific compartments contain all paperwork, toys accessible to the pet, and a hidden storage area for items such as harnesses, leashes, and pet waste disposal bags. The pet bed system is transportable so that all items familiar to the pet along with proper documentation can travel with ease. The pet bed system can suit the needs of small and especially large breeds alike.

A pet stroller is provided having a frame assembly which includes a base frame and a back frame. A handle is connected to the back frame. A platform is located on the base frame to define a pet seating area. Two rear wheels and at least one front wheel are connected to the base frame. Two foldable struts are provided, between the base and back frames that are lockable in an extended position and releasable to allow folding of the struts. A back door is connected by hinges to the back frame and has a releasable door latch. A canopy is provided including a cloth canopy assembly and the upper and lower canopy bars. A canopy latch releasably connects the lower canopy bar to a front cross member of the base frame to form an enclosed pet seating area. The platform forming the pet seating area is below a level defined by a top of the rear wheels, and preferably less than 12 inches above ground level, accommodating larger pets and eliminating the need to lift the pet into the pet seating area.

A small animal lifting device has a u-shaped portion, a connector, and a handle. The u-shaped portion includes spaced apart tines that allow an animal's legs to pass through and extend beyond the tines and at the same time cradle the animal's body for lifting and transport. The connector links the handle to the tines and maintains the spaced apart arrangement of the tines. The handle is preferably centered with the u-shaped portion so the animal can be lifted based on its center of gravity.

Mesh node modules are associated with pet carriers and companion nodes can dynamically form a mesh network which uploads location information of the nodes and in some cases additional information, e.g., temperature or pet physical parameter signals, to a network. The information may be downloaded to an owner's CE device.

A system for remote care of an animal includes a water-tight housing with a hardened structural shell defining a chamber for accommodating the animal, a door disposed in the housing providing entry into and exit from the chamber by the animal, a wireless data communication system disposed within the housing and wirelessly communicatively coupled with a global computer network, a mobility portion coupled to the housing and operable to move the housing, and a microprocessor disposed within the housing and in communication with the wireless data communication system and operable to control the mobility portion and the door.

A foldable transport box, particularly for transporting small animals, having a bottom, at which two face walls and two side walls made from one or more parts are pivotally mounted. The face walls and the side walls are essentially collapsed onto the bottom in the folded state of the transport box, while in the erected state of the transport box, starting from the bottom, they are essentially erected aligned upwards. The side walls are connected to each other at the top in the erected state of the transport box in order to close the transport box at the top. The side walls are detachably connected to each other at the top of the transport box in the erected state, with at least one side wall being detachable from the face walls and pivotal towards the outside in order to open the transport box in the opened state.

A castor assembly comprising a base plate, a wheel assembly extending from base plate, a vertical support member plate, a vertical retaining member, a retaining bolt, and a horizontal retaining member. The vertical support member has a pair of vertically spaced slots. The horizontal retaining member extends from the retaining bolt and is movable along the retaining bolt in a way that the horizontal retaining member is positionable between an open position, a first closed position wherein the horizontal retaining member is disposed in the first slot to retain an object having a first size in the object receiving space, and a second closed position wherein the horizontal retaining is disposed in the second slot to retain another object having a second size that is different from the first size in the object receiving space.

The present invention relates to a collapsible cage assembly including an outer covering and a support frame for supporting the outer covering in an upright position. The outer covering can have a top, bottom, front, back, first side, and second side. The support frame can include a top frame body and a bottom frame body, a first side member and a second side member each being pivotably coupled to the top frame body and bottom frame body, and a top support member coupled to the top frame body. The top support member can define a V-shaped portion. The frame can also include a U-shaped member have a first end and a second end, each of the first end and second end slidably and pivotably coupled to the bottom frame body. The U-shaped member is removably coupled to the V-shaped portion of the top support member in the upright position.

A system for remote care of an animal includes a water-tight housing with a hardened structural shell defining a chamber for accommodating the animal, a door disposed in the housing providing entry into and exit from the chamber by the animal, a wireless data communication system disposed within the housing and wirelessly communicatively coupled with a global computer network, a mobility portion coupled to the housing and operable to move the housing, and a microprocessor disposed within the housing and in communication with the wireless data communication system and operable to control the mobility portion and the door.

The present disclosure provides a carrier including: a main body; and a canopy assembly disposed to the main body or a cloth at least partially covering the main body. The canopy assembly includes: a canopy; and a canopy connecting assembly disposed between the canopy and the main body or between the canopy and the cloth, so that the canopy and the main body or the cloth are detachably connected with each other. The canopy connecting assembly includes: a canopy frame connected to a periphery of the canopy for supporting the canopy, and detachably disposed at a periphery of an opening of the main body; and a releasing operation element disposed on the canopy frame or the bracket device sleeved outside the main body, and operated to move from a locking position to an unlocking position, so that the canopy assembly is unlocked with respect to the main body.
