Non-slip pads for animal paws include a pad with a non-slip surface on one side and a pressure sensitive adhesive on the other side. The pad is fabricated from a material with superior grip characteristics, such as neoprene. The non-slip surface is also preferably textured to increase grip. The pressure sensitive adhesive is preferably a medical adhesive suitable for contact with an animal. A peel-off label is attached to the adhesive to prevent the adhesive from prematurely bonding to another surface. In use, the animal's paw is first cleaned and dried. The peel-off label is removed from the pad and the adhesive side is applied to the cleaned and dried paw.

A reconfigurable animal toy is disclosed herein. The toy has a plurality of connectable track pieces that may be assembled to define a track for receiving a captive ball. The track allows an animal to touch the ball for selectively propelling the ball along the track. To enhance the interest of the animal, the track may define a randomizer for affecting travel of the ball and may define a sight line interference member. Additional features of the animal toy may include scratch pads and visual devices to enhance and maintain the interest of the animal.

The invention discloses a non-destructive monitoring system for animal exposure on a fire scene and relates to the field of animal exposure monitoring. The system comprises an animal exposure box and a set of monitoring device, wherein the monitoring device is used for monitoring a fire environment and behavior characteristics of animals in a smoke exposure process; a gas distributor, thermocouples and two or more homoeothermic animal bins are arranged in the animal exposure box; and a physiological signal monitoring probe is arranged in each homoeothermic animal bin. The system has the advantages that body temperatures of the animals can be kept constant through the homoeothermic animal bins; through the gas distributor, after the smoke enters the animal exposure box, the smoke is quickly and uniformly distributed at the mouths and the noses of the animals, so that inaccurate experimental results caused by inconsistent exposure conditions are avoided; and change of physiological indexes of the animals during fire smoke exposure is monitored in a non-destructive mode through the physiological signal monitoring probes, so that inaccurate experimental results caused by injury of animal bodies due to destructive monitoring are avoided.

The invention discloses a farm biosafety management system, which comprises a management subsystem, a communication network, a cloud server and a biosafety protection circle subsystem for farm biosafety supervision; the management subsystem, the cloud server and the biosafety protection circle subsystem are interconnected through the communication network.
