Abstract

An animal wellness notification system includes an attachment body configured to securely engage with an ear of the animal; an elongated temperature probe secured to the attachment body and configured to extend within the ear of the animal; a housing secured to the attachment body; a computer disposed within the housing and operably associated with the temperature probe; and a notification device in data communication with the computer, the notification device being configured to provide notice if a temperature of the animal goes beyond a determined threshold.

Claims (25)

1. An animal wellness notification system, comprising:

a plurality of health monitoring devices including a health monitoring device, wherein the health monitoring device comprises:

(i) an attachment body configured to securely engage an attachment point on an animal;

(ii) a temperature monitor positioned through a rotation device and configured to measure a temperature of the animal;

(iii) a housing secured to the attachment body;

(iv) a first computer disposed within the housing and operably associated with the temperature monitor;

(v) a notification device in data communication with the first computer configured to provide notice if the temperature of the animal goes beyond a selected threshold,

(vi) a wireless communication transmission system;

(vii) a switch secured to the housing and operably associated with the first computer; and

a second computer, wherein the second computer receives animal information from each of the plurality of health monitoring devices via wireless communication, and wherein the animal wellness notification system simultaneously monitors multiple animals.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the switch is configured to reset the first computer.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the notification device comprises a light.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the notification device comprises a speaker.

5. The system of claim 1 , further comprising:

a database in communication with the second computer;

wherein the database is configured to store data from the notification device.

6. An animal wellness notification system, comprising:

a plurality of health monitoring devices including a health monitoring device, wherein the health monitoring device comprises an attachment body configured to securely engage a part of an animal, a housing secured to the attachment body, a temperature monitor positioned through a rotation device and configured to interact with the part of the animal, a device computer disposed within the housing and operably associated with the temperature monitor, a switch secured to the housing and operably associated with device computer, and a notification device, wherein the notification device is configured to provide notice if a temperature reading of the animal, determined by the temperature monitor, goes beyond a temperature threshold; and

a computer, wherein the computer receives animal information from each of the plurality of health monitoring devices via wireless communication, and wherein the animal wellness notification system simultaneously monitors multiple animals.

7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the switch is configured to reset the device computer.

8. The system of claim 6 , wherein the notification device comprises a light.

9. The system of claim 6 , wherein the notification device comprises a speaker.
