Abstract: An animal run having first and second side panels operable to be pivotally mounted along a central plane. A front panel is pivotally coupled with one of the side panels and operable to be detachably coupled to the other side panel. The side panels are moveable between a stored position, in which each side panel is positioned parallel the central plane, and an operational position, in which they extend outward at an angle from the central plane. The front panel is moveable between a stored position, in which it is positioned parallel the central plane, and an operational position, in which it is positioned at an angle from the side panel to which it is coupled and is detachably coupled with the other side panel. The side panels and front panel define an interior space for housing an animal when in their operational position.

Abstract: A animal cage having an inclined floor, a plurality of upstanding walls mounted on the floor and an opening in the floor panel, positioned proximate an end of the floor panel, for evacuating waste material from the floor is disclosed. A cover, mounted on one of the walls extends over the opening to substantially preclude the housed animal from contacting the material in the opening. The opening is positioned within the floor panel to be spatially removed from the side edges of the floor panel The opening is interconnected with a drain conduit which is substantially sealed except for its intercommunication with the opening and an outlet.
