Abstract: A plastic receptacle is designed to be used to collect urine specimens from animals for testing. It solves the problem of how to easily collect an uncontaminated urine sample from an animal, in a sanitary manner. The invention allows for collection of the urine sample from a short distance without bending over, so as not to startle the animal causing it to move or stop urinating before a sample can be collected. The device allows commonly available household items to suffice for a handle and for a specimen bottle.
