ICU Small Animal Rugs

Unique rugs made for newborns and unwell lambs-calves-kids-cria's waterproof/windproof/breathable th Pneumonia or scours. Where you can place a heat pad inside.

Hello everyone, l would like to welcome you to ICU Small Animal Rugs page. About us: Our children are the 4th Generation in this rural area of West Gippsland. Our family for these past generations have been in farming of dairy and beef. My husband and l have been farming beef cattle on a small scale for over 20 years, along with the rearing of calves and sheep breeding. Now we are breedin

g Pure East Friesian and Pure Suffolk's sheep with a bit of cross breeding. Why Our Rugs: I would like to believe that in my life span of 50 or so years, l have seen and learnt a lot of taking care of new born and mature animals. We understand that to loose any new born's animals whether you are on a large scale acreage of farming, the Stud Breeder, or a hobby farmer is not only disheartening but also costly. It causes frustration and helplessness and you question yourself on if there is a better way to help prevent such loss. Benefits Of The Rug: To prevent or aid in the treatment of hypothermia in newborns. Long births, low birth weights and multiple births are all situations where an ICU Small Animal Rug can assist with the treatment and recovery process. The Material Of The Rug: The outer shell is a 3-layer lamented, it's waterproof, windproof and breathable. The inner layer is a double sided fabric that wicks moisture away, and is odour controlled. The Pouch: There is a pouch on top of the rug at the back over the kidney area, between the 2 layers of fabrics. This heat pad will give safe continuous heat up to 10-12 hours.

You never know with animals getting a surprise bundles of joy.
Amanda Conn's pygmy doe delivered 2 pygmy kids the other day.
It's amazing just how small Pygmy and Miniature kids are.
Mr.Monty is so small even our ###/small rug looks like he is swimming in it. But Miss Pepper in the red rug is rocking it in ###/small
Thank you Amanda for taking the time and sharing with us.

This was from a hand fill of years ago when Marre was loading her cows after a week at International Dairy Week.
The rugs stayed on without moving all the way home to West Gippsland.

Our Photosensitivity Cow Rug, Maree Zanders-deenen have been using our Show Rugs and Photo Rugs for years now along with our Canvas Cow Rugs.
See the ease that this cow can get up without kneeling on the rug.

I hope that everyone had a peaceful Christmas and a enjoyable New Year.
This weather the days are scorchers, you can feel the sun burning.
If you find yourself with a sunburnt cow please remember that we make photosensitivity covers for your cattle.
On another note the being of the new year Show Season starts!
We have Cow Show Rugs which are so handy for keeping your animal clean, but also if you crate transport or truck without a roof cover these rugs can save your animal from windburn.
People have trucked a load with rugs on without any problems and also they use these rugs for out in the paddocks.

Get in early with your orders and don't leave it until the last minute as you may miss out.

How can ICU Small Animal Rugs help your cow?

We have designed a rug to help with this condition giving your animal the best coverage with a light weight but tough tear lock polyester/cotton rug. This rug will allow your cow to stay with the herd and be protected from the sun.

1. The seams over the hips are the same as our other cow rugs

2. The neck comes up past the break in the neck, for more coverage

3. The drop of the rug has extra length that covers the udder

4. Length of the rug we have made longer for the rug to wrap around the hind of the cow giving her more protection

5. The front of the rug we have cut back, this is to stop the cow from kneeling on the fabric when getting up.

6. This fabric is shower proof but is fully breathable

COMPETITION DRAW!

ICU Small Animal Premature Calf Rugs It's about right on a cold and wet day, and you get a new arrival of a wee Jersey Premature Calf. Some 6 Years ago Heather Campbell purchased a ICU Premature calf rug. These small little premature rugs have that extra warmth that a premature calf needs to help regulate their body temperature. All Premature rugs have a pouch built in over the kidney area of the newborn where you can place a human heat pad, your newborn is warmed up gradually as not to place the newborn in shock. We were the first manufacturer of Premature Calf Rugs the original and the best for your early newborn's. The price is still $70.00 per rug. www.icusmallanimalrugs.com #dairyfarming #dairyfarm #dairyfarmersofamerica #calves #beeffarming #beef #milkingcows #lovecows #calves #calfrearing #calvingseason #calving
