Snuggle (Restrainers)

Only available in Belgium

Features

The ultimate in stress-free immobilization and versatility for procedures involving, rodents, guineapig or rabbit subjects.

Handle with Care!
Small animals are prone to stress and require extra care in handling. mechanical restraints frequently require the involvement of two persons; one to restrain and one to perform. The resulting tress and discomfort for the subject can often jeopardize the efficiency of the procedure. The Snuggle uses the principle of a coconn rather than a rigid structure for immobilization. The multiple flaps perform two functions; they are adjustable around the subject for effective yet comfortable restraint, and positioned, or left open for access depending on the procedure. Both restraint and procedure can be carried out by one handler.

Blood Collection, Vaginal Samples, Bolus Injection, Veterinary Exams, Transport and more...
The Snuggles are manufactured from flexible yet extremely durable canvas fabric. the fabric is coated with Nylon to facilitate laundering for reuse. Wide flaps with velcor fasteners allow for maximum flexibility, ease of use and adjustment for fit between individual subjects. The Snuggles are available in different sizes for a complete range of animals including pregnant females.
