Abstract: A side-attachment cradle for veterinary surgical tables includes a platform, a first length-adjustable skirt, a second length-adjustable skirt, at least one first skirt-positioning mechanism, at least one second skirt-positioning mechanism, and a surgical-table adapter. The platform, the first length-adjustable skirt, and the second length-adjustable skirt enclose a holding area for securely holding an animal during necessary surgical procedures. The first skirt-positioning mechanism positions the first length-adjustable skirt by adjusting a first angle and a first offset-distance from the platform's central axis. The second skirt-positioning mechanism positions the second length-adjustable skirt by adjusting a second angle and a second offset distance from the platform's central axis, thereby changing the effective volume enclosed by the holding area. The surgical-table adapter allows the present invention to selectively fasten onto a conventional veterinary surgical table.
