Information provided in response to a customer question:
Why should I buy this, the thermometer made for humans is not good for this purpose?
- This thermometer is designed and manufactured for the intended use.
- Robust design, striking colour -all to make it easily distinguishable from a thermometer for human use. Make sure that there is no mistake that it is the same for animals and humans.
Let's look at an example of the danger: suppose you have a nice white human-use thermometer in the family that you bought specifically for your cat/dog. The mum or dad knows that this is only used for their pet and they are careful to stick only the other one in their child's bottom, as there is a separate one that the family uses. But the grandmother can miss it, forget it. (apologies to the grandmothers for the assumption). The child has a fever, grandma is worried, scrambling and there are two similar thermometers in the medicine drawer, or she is searching and finally finds one thermometer, not knowing she should be looking for the other. In such an accident, it can happen that the device previously used in an animal rectum gets into the baby's bottom or armpit. Or grandpa's temperature needs to be taken and he takes it by mouth. It's bad to think about.
- Among the thermometers for human use, there are some that are technically identical to the VT 1831 animal thermometer, but let's consider that we feed our dogs and cats from a different bowl and eat from a different bowl. Even though our pets can eat from the same bowl as ours, what happens if the same dishes get mixed up after washing up. I know, with extra care this can be avoided, but mistakes are never deliberate, they are made out of carelessness.
- In terms of price. Large display, 10mp measurement time, waterproof and disinfectant, memory, beeper, lifetime warranty.
