Abstract:
Systems, methods, and computer code products for monitoring the behavior, health, and/or characteristics of an animal are disclosed herein. In one implementation, the animal is positioned inside a waste container placed on a system that is adapted to determine, record and communicate over a network various animal health parameters. These parameters can be processed to determine trends, statistics and changes of animal physiological functions. The results can be used to access animal health conditions and issue warnings, alarms, messages, and other notifications to designated caretakers. These notifications may be displayed using various means such as computers and/or mobile devices. Data retrieval and review capability can provide improved understanding of an animal's health conditions and facilitate early illness detection.

Claim (Index 34):
A method for monitoring the behavior of an animal, the method comprising:\n receiving measured characteristics of an animal measured by a measuring device when a sensor detects a presence of the animal; storing the measured characteristics of the animal in a storage device; calculating, using a processor, derived data from the measured characteristics, wherein at least a portion of the derived data is selected from the group consisting of an average daily weight of the animal, a maximum daily weight of the animal, a minimum daily weight of the animal, and combinations thereof; comparing, using the processor, at least one of the measured characteristics or the derived data to threshold alert data stored in the storage device; and sending, via a network adapter, an alert associated with the animal to be displayed on a remote display device when the measured characteristics or the derived data exceeds the threshold alert data.
