PET-TEMP® INSTANT EAR THERMOMETER 

Pet-Temp® Instant Ear Thermometer

Product Code: CW070018 Price: Check Latest An ear thermometer can help better determine when medical attention is needed when you suspect illness, when you are monitoring for a relapse of infection, or when your chin is recovering from surgery. The Pet-Temp® Instant Ear Thermometer works by measuring the infrared heat waves emanating from a chinchilla's eardrum region to provide an accurate body core temperature in one second. We think you'll find this insturment to be a useful addition to your "chinchilla health care kit." The Pet-Temp® is designed exclusively for use with animals and we find it interesting that the inventor owned pet chinchillas. Unlike ear thermometers designed for humans, it has a small probe tip that allows it to fit into small animal ear canals. It uses inexpensive disposable lens covers (it comes with a pack of 20) that insure accurate readings and prevent the possible transmittion of infection. By the way, thousands of vets use a professional version (called the Vet-Temp®) which features more rugged construction, but which uses the same senor and has the same accuracy as the Pet-Temp®. • Can also be used on dogs, cats, puppies, kittens, rabbits, guinea pigs, degus and ferrets. • One second temperature measurement • Clinically proven accurate (Measures in either a Fahrenheit or Celsius scale with an accuracy of +/- .3 degrees F.) • Measures a "core" body temperature • Less stressful than rectal thermometers
