    Vet med is like this because they don’t really make specialized equipment for every animal. Was on a tour behind the scenes at a zoo and they used a traffic cone to administer anesthesia to a seal.

    They don’t make masks for anything besides dogs and cats and making tiny masks and putting them on small animals would be incredibly difficult.

      … So, if this thing isn’t a dedicated small animal anesthetiser, what am I looking at?

        A small animal anethetiser which can fit a variety of small mammals, not just one.

        They are vet masks. They are generic and on different sizes. The largest one can fit several small animals. The smallest ones are for cats and tiny dogs. I think the largest one they make are for horses and cattle. But they have special fittings for straps. This ones are rubber ring ended so they are easier to use to makeshift a tiny gas chamber.

      It seems like something that could be improved by 3d printing.

      I’m guessing that if a vet has to assist several animals of the same species maybe it could be possible to get some kind of mask that could fit most of them.

      Although I’m not sure if that’s something that would help or maybe it will just be more cumbersome.

    That’s pretty terrifying. You can see the somewhat muted apprehension on his face mixed with a hope that he will be out of it soon.

    Of course, I’m putting human emotions onto an animal, but that’s just because I can easily see myself in such a situation where I’m politely asked to step into a room and face a wall for a brief moment…

        Yea my brain definitely forgot what anesthetize meant for like 3-4 seconds when I first opened the picture and it made me sad… Then I was like wait no that’s different. Then I was like but yea you could probably use this for the other thing too. Then I remembered the video youtube recommended to me about some guy that built his own gas chamber for cats out of a cooler and got sad again.

      Animals experience the same emotions as we do.

      It’s just their understanding of the situation that might be lacking.

        My second paragraph was mostly just to excuse myself from mapping human emotions onto animal facial expressions.

    They do this for a lot of small animals. My vet has a little cage with an adjustable top you can push down to reduce the volume, that they use for small animals
