Abstract: An absorbent pad may include a liquid permeable layer, a liquid impermeable layer, and a liquid absorbent layer disposed between the liquid permeable layer and the liquid impermeable layer. The liquid absorbent layer may include a first absorption region and a second absorption region. The second absorption region may extend around the first absorption region and may be configured to absorb more liquid per unit area than the first absorption region.

Abstract: A method of disposing of an absorbent pad may include pivoting a flexible bag from a storage position to a use position such that at least a portion of the flexible bag extends from the absorbent pad, folding a left and right portion of the flexible bag towards a center portion of the flexible bag to form a stacked portion, rolling the stacked portion towards the flexible bag to form a roll, and disposing the roll within a cavity defined by one of an outer surface or an inner surface of the flexible bag.

Abstract: An example adjustable brush may include a brush head and a handle extending from the brush head. The brush head may include a first plurality of teeth extending along a rotation axis and a second plurality of teeth extending along the rotation axis. The second plurality of teeth may be rotatable independently of the first plurality of teeth about the rotation axis.

Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to trimming shears for cutting (or trimming) a claw of a domesticated animal. The trimming shears include a first handle, a second handle, and at least one blade. Pivotal movement of the first handle relative to the second handle urges the blade between a pre-cut position and a cut position. The transition from the pre-cut position to the cut position being configured to cut a claw positioned in the blade path. The trimming shears may further include a guide for receiving a respective claw and guiding the claw to be positioned within the blade path. In one example, the guide may include a single aperture, wherein an effective opening area of the aperture is adjustable to accommodate a respective claw. In another example, the guide may include a plurality of apertures, each sized for receiving a respective claw size.

Abstract: An example adjustable brush may include a handle and a brush head coupled to the handle. The brush head may include a platform, a first arm extending from the platform, and a second arm extending from the platform. A non-rotatable shaft may extend between the first and second arms and a rotatable shaft may be positioned between the non-rotatable shaft and the platform. The rotatable shaft may extend between the first and second arms. A plurality of adjustable teeth may be slideably coupled to the non-rotatable shaft and a plurality of spacers may be positioned on the rotatable shaft. At least a portion of one or more of the plurality of spacers may engage at least a portion of a respective one or more of the adjustable teeth. A rotation of the rotatable shaft rotates the spacers and causes a lateral movement of the adjustable teeth along the non-rotatable shaft.

Abstract: An animal waste bag dispenser wherein a roll of waste bags with the leading waste bag protruding from the center is inserted into a holder with an aperture on one end, and the holder is inserted into a plush animal with a second aperture aligned with the first aperture so that waste bags may be dispensed therefrom.

Abstract: A molded decorative yard stake having a basin for containing an animal attractant and a cover removeably locking in place over, and sufficiently spaced from, the basin to permit gradual aerosolization of the animal attractant.

Abstract: A series of animal waste pads connected together where the separation between animal waste pads is defined by a perforation and the animal waste pads are wound around a roll that is adapted to fit an animal waste pad dispenser.

Abstract: An animal waste pad device that dispenses waste pads from a roll of animal waste pads and holds the animal waste pads in place for use by an animal.

Abstract: A housing for covering a digester system contains a hollow supporting structure on top of which is attached a catch basin via a hinge mechanism, wherein the catch basin has an inwardly concave shape so that rain or other water may be collected and directed through a passage to the digester system located directly below the catch basin.
