Abstract:

A pet enclosure has a generally hollow box shaped base and a roof which is hingedly attached to the base. The hinged roof allows simplified access to the interior of the pet enclosure for cleaning, whelping or the like. The roof of the pet enclosure includes a chimney within which is located a passive vent which can be opened or closed to allow air flow through the pet enclosure to be controlled. A further embodiment of the pet enclosure includes an optional plastic curtain door and/or a solar powered vent fan which replaces the passive vent.
