A medical grade oxygen concentrator is a device that filters oxygen from the surrounding room air and concentrates it in order to provide high purity oxygen (>90%).

An oxygen concentrator does not need to be refilled like an oxygen tank does, as it is able to create its own supply of oxygen from the surrounding room air. Our units have a run time of over 30,000 hours, and require very little maintenance. We offer both 10 liter oxygen concentrators and 5 liter oxygen concentrators. The 10 liter model offers oxygen flow rates from 1 LPM to 10 LPM. The 5 liter model offers oxygen flow rates between 0.5 LPM to 5 LPM.

The size of the oxygen concentrator needed depends on the size of the oxygen cage you are using.

Small and medium Buster ICU Oxygen Cages can utilize a 5 liter oxygen concentrator or a 10 liter oxygen concentrator. Large Buster ICU Oxygen Cages must utilize a 10 liter oxygen concentrator. Please note, Pawprint Oxygen Canisters cannot be used with the Oxygen Cage.

The oxygen cage requires an oxygen concentrator to provide the correct amount of air flow into the cage. When using a concentrator with the cage, you will always set the concentrator to its highest flow rate. This means that you will set the 5 liter oxygen concentrator to 5 liters per minute when using a small or medium cage; or set the 10 liter concentrator to 10 liters per minute when using a large cage.

As you go from a small or medium cage to a large cage, you have to fill up a greater volume of space while also ensuring that you are turning over the air in the cage, pushing out the excess CO2 and other gaseous by-products, while continuing to push fresh oxygen gas into the cage. For these reasons it is essential that you use higher flow rates when you use the cage than when you would if you were administering oxygen therapy in a different way, such as flow by mask.

Yes, we require a prescription for any oxygen source. This includes Pawprint Oxygen Canisters and oxygen concentrators.

There are several different types of oxygen concentrators on the market. We offer medical grade oxygen concentrators.

When using a Buster ICU Oxygen Cage, you will set your concentrator to its highest setting. When using a Pet Oxygen Mask, please refer to your prescription for the flow rate indicated by your doctor.

Most cars cannot provide a high enough power output to power the oxygen concentrator.

There are several types of pet oxygen cages on the market, but not all of them are safe for your pet. We recommend using the Buster ICU Pet Oxygen Cage.

We recommend the Buster ICU Pet Oxygen Cage due to its robust build quality and adaptable oxygen fittings. The Buster ICU Oxygen Cage includes a Venturi kit that allows you to change the oxygen saturation and flow within the oxygen cage, which disperses carbon dioxide, heat and humidity to ensure that your pet is safe and comfortable.

Pawprint Oxygen is the largest provider of the Buster ICU Oxygen Cages to pet owners and animal hospitals. No other pet oxygen cage on the market has been tested like the Buster ICU Pet Oxygen Cage.

No, the Buster ICU Pet Oxygen Cage comes with a 7-ft length of oxygen tubing and a complete Venturi Piece Kit, as well as ice packs, and a carrying case.

The pet oxygen cage size should be determined by measuring your pet and comparing them to the dimensions of the oxygen cage.

This is not recommended.

Use the Portable Oxygen Kit when you notice your pet having any signs of respiratory distress.

Start the flow of oxygen and read the gauge on the regulator.

The flow rate prescribed by your veterinarian will determine how long the canister lasts.

Pawprint Oxygen Canisters are safe to use while traveling by car, but are prohibited for use on an aircraft.

Fit the oxygen mask over your pet’s muzzle. The mask may cover the muzzle up to and including the rest of the head, depending on the pet’s size and head shape.

We recommend taking your pets measurements to ensure you select the correct size. We supply three Pet Oxygen Mask sizes: small, medium, and large. Below are the measurements and weight recommendations for each.

Yes, they can be reused.

The Pet Oxygen Mask should be cleaned before being used on another pet or patient, or if it has become soiled. The mask can be washed with a mild soap and warm water. Dry the mask completely before using.

Use warm soapy water to clean the Pet Oxygen Mask. Rinse the mask several times in clean water and let air dry prior to use.

Yes, Pawprint Oxygen products are safe to use with companion animals, small animals, and exotic pets.

Some medical grade oxygen concentrators and tanks are compatible with the Buster ICU Oxygen Cage or mask. Only Pawprint Oxygen regulators will work with the Pawprint Oxygen Canisters, as they have been specially designed to fit together.
