  • Patent number: 5685261
    Abstract: An arrangement for gathering fleas from fur with a comb (112) and wiping the fleas and loosened fur from the comb (112) so as to deposit them into a closeable container (101) for disposal. The container (101) has a rear end cap (102) in which moth balls may be mounted so that fumes fill the container. The front end cap (103) has a shaped opening (116) keyed to the shape of comb spline (113) to assist in guiding the comb (112) to wipers. The wipers are opposing blades (105) urged together but allow the comb (112) to be inserted between the blades (105), lifted through the blades (105) to remove the accumulated fleas and fur in a position to be deposited into the container (101). A cover (117) may be placed over the front end cap (103) to allow the vapors from the moth balls to act on the fleas. These active end caps may be removed for re-use on a new container (101). Disposable end caps are placed on each end of the container (101) and the used container (101) disposed.

  • Patent number: 5649499
    Abstract: A feeding bowl mounted unitarially fabricated with edges which form an angled support for the bowl. The food in the bowl is protected by a rotational or sliding cover movable by an animal to expose the food for feeding. The exposed surface of the lid may be textured to be engagable by the animal. The lid is biased so that under the condition of the lid being released by the animal the lid is urged into a position to cover the food and form a seal between the lid an bowl to prevent the intrusion of insects. The lid further protects the food from moisture and from animals and birds not capable of moving the lid.

  • Patent number: 5474032
    Abstract: A pet toy and excerises device adapted to be selectively mounted over the top of an existing dwelling door to allow the pet to interact with the device and "play by itself", or the device may be hand held to initiate excerise. The device comprises a plurality of wands, flexible or rigid, a tether and a target object. The device may further combine a counterweight and a stop selectively mounted on the tether all of which increase the eccentricity of the orbit of the target object when the target is encountered by the pet.
