ABSTRACT:
A device permitting movement of a cow's tail while the cow is in its stall and which will maintain the tail elevated when the animal is lying down to avoid tail contact with the animal's droppings. The device includes an elongated elastic cord for extension from a fixed overhead point to an integral tubular sleeve wrapped on the animal's tail near its end to absorb the shock of directional change when the animal swings its tail. The sleeve is adapted to retain its normal position adjacent the tail's distal end and to slip free from its engagement on the tail if the animal breaks free from its stall, thereby avoiding tail injury.
