Thousands of vets are leaving steel cages in the past

Thousands of vets are leaving steel cages in the past

Veterinary housing has an important role to play in patient care. The right environment can help reduce stress, support recovery and make everyday care easier for veterinary teams.

At Casco Pet, we design veterinary housing around these needs. Our CAREKennels and WELLKennels combine welfare-focused design, advanced materials and intelligent technology to create better environments for patients and the people caring for them. With both ranges up to 40% faster to clean than traditional steel cages, our solutions are also designed to support biosecurity and more efficient clinical workflows.

With two distinct veterinary housing ranges, practices can choose the solution that best fits their clinical needs and budget.

CAREKennels – a better alternative to steel, at the same price

CAREKennels make the benefits of modern veterinary housing more accessible – at the same price as traditional steel cages.

Manufactured using antimicrobial WCB, CAREKennels create an environment that is warmer and quieter than steel, helping reduce unnecessary noise and support calmer patients during hospitalisation and recovery.

100% waterproof surfaces with fully bonded seams support effective cleaning and biosecurity, while toughened glass doors provide clear patient visibility.

With flexible configurations for cats and dogs, CAREKennels provide a modern, welfare-focused alternative for veterinary practices without increasing costs.

WELLKennels – advanced housing for exceptional patient care

WELLKennels combine premium all-glass construction with integrated technology and welfare-focused design to create an environment designed to reduce stress and support patient comfort and recovery.

Sound-dampening glass helps create a quieter environment, while integrated heating provides warmth across part of the enclosure, allowing patients to choose between warmer and cooler areas to help maintain thermal comfort.

Intelligent lighting includes daylight, recovery and cleaning modes, while optional ventilation and privacy glass allow configurations to be tailored to different patients and clinical requirements.

Easy-clean glass surfaces support high standards of hygiene and biosecurity, while clear visibility helps veterinary teams observe patients throughout their stay.

Internationally recognised for patient wellbeing

Both CAREKennels and WELLKennels are recognised as Fear Free® Preferred Products and support ISFM Cat Friendly Clinic standards, providing veterinary teams with housing designed around patient wellbeing and reduced stress.
