Abstract: A collection device (100) suitable for use in collecting urine from animals, the device (100) including a collection tube component (300) for collecting urine from an animal and a main chamber component (200) for storing urine collected with the collection tube component (300). Engagement means (342) for operatively connecting the collection tube component (300) and the main chamber component (200) are provided so that the collection tube component (300) and the main chamber component (200) are both releasably engagable. In use, the collection device (100) is positioned to collect urine from an animal, and the engagement means (342) is able to operatively connect the main chamber component (200) and the collection tube component (300) for allowing urine to pass from the collection tube component (300) to the main chamber component (200).

Abstract: A urine collection device (10) for animals has a support portion (60), which is positioned between the buttocks of the animal, directly below the anus; and a deflector plate (80) supported by the support portion (60) and having a front contact edge (88). Arms (92) and breeching straps (112) can be tensioned to conform the front contact edge (88) of the deflector plate (80) against the buttocks of the animal to assist in deflecting faeces away from the buttocks of the animal.
