Stress Reduction

Snyder is the Original Innovator of Stress Reduction Housing

The very origin of Snyder Mfg. is rooted in comfort and stress reduction. Back in 1957, the sole purpose of the design of Snyder’s housing was to provide an alternative to the solitary choice of cold and noisy stainless steel. In addition, veterinarians quickly discovered Snyder’s availability of much larger housing options. Snyder also recognized the importance of quiet gate latches and the need for corrosion resistant materials. The choice of anodized aluminum with swivel latching and assembled gates instead of welding has held up over time.

Key Elements of Stress Reduction in Housing Design:

• Enough space to stretch and turn around (including tail for dogs).
• Privacy options and perching with unobstructed views for cats.
• Separate litter area for cats.
• Warmer surfaces that do not require towels or blankets.
• Adequate ventilation (and ability to sniff for dogs).
• No reflective surfaces or bright white interiors.
• Not too dark or too light, and providing natural light if possible.
