Abstract: A support structure for a pet, wild bird or small animal treat which includes a stem having a first end and a second end. At the first end there is a disk and hanger that fit into a mold. At the second end is a branch member perpendicular to the stem. Food is packed into the mold so that is surrounds the stem and branch. The resulting treat is removed from the mold for packaging.

Abstract: A support structure to which a conglomeration of small animal food can be affixed and around which a conglomeration can be formed includes a shaft having a top and bottom plate at opposite ends thereof. The top plate includes a hanging clip capable of securing the support to a small animal cage or other support structure and the bottom plate may have a securing clip capable of better securing the support to the cage. In order to improve the ability of the support structure to retain the conglomeration thereon when an animal picks at it, a plurality of protuberances are disposed along the length of the shaft. Small animal food is disposed about the shaft between the top and bottom plates and is held together and to the shaft and plates by a sticky material such as honey, dextrose, or other edible substance.

Abstract: A support assembly for an object of interest which includes a stem which has a first portion which has a substantially uniform width dimension, and a second portion which has an increased width dimension in relative comparison to the first portion; a suspension member movably secured on the first end of the stem and having a width dimension which is substantially equal to, or less than, the width dimension of the second portion of the stem, and a support tab movably secured on the second end of the stem, and wherein the support tab is moveable along a path of travel from a first position, wherein the support tab is oriented in a substantially coplanar orientation relative to the stem, to a second position wherein the main body is oriented in a substantially angulated relationship relative to the stem to support the object of interest.

Abstract: A unitary bird bell support formed of plastic material includes a substantially planar disk including a top surface on which the bell rests, and a hanging tab integrally hinged to the disk at a hinge line which is located substantially at a center of the disk. A portion of the hanging tab is cut from the disk to form a radial slot which extends from the peripheral edge of the disk to the inner margin of the slot which forms the hinge line between the disk and hanging tab. The hanging tab is movable between an unfolded position in which the hanging tab is substantially coplanar with the disk and includes a portion which is positioned within the slot, and a folded position in which the hanging tab is substantially normal to the disk, extending upwardly and being positionable within an axial slot within the bird bell. The top portion of the hanging tab should extend upwardly out from the axial slot and has an aperture by which the support and bird bell may be hung.

Abstract: A multicolor three-dimensional display carton is formed from a unitary blank having only one multicolor surface. The display carton is self-supporting and can be placed on a flat surface, or can be hung from a hook. The carton allows a portion of a displayed product to be viewed in a blister package mounted to a main panel while a portion of the displayed product is enclosed on all sides by panels with multicolored outwardly facing surfaces.
