ABSTRACT:
A flooring system for use in an animal shelter. The flooring system is modular and includes a disassemblable base frame having, as components thereof, a pair of end crossbars, a plurality of longitudinally extending support members, and interconnecting elements. When assembled, the base frame is formed by interconnecting the end crossbars by means of laterally spaced support members. The interconnecting elements, in turn, interconnect adjacent support members and the interconnecting elements extend generally transverse to those members. The modular flooring system also includes at least one first panel and a second panel supported on the base frame. The one or more first panels are generally coplanar, and the second panel includes a portion, intended to support an animal mother when feeding her young, which is positioned to define a second plane, elevated above the first plane, and a ramp portion angling downwardly from the second plane defining portion toward each first panel. Elements are provided to locate the first and second panels on the frame in desired positions.
