Product Description
The Digital Tray Scale 1g to 10kg is designed specifically for weighing small breed newborn puppies, kittens, and pocket pets, making it an essential tool for breeders, rescue carers, veterinarians, and pet owners. Accurate daily weight monitoring is one of the most important ways to assess the health and development of newborn animals, particularly during the first few weeks of life.
With accuracy to 1 gram, this scale allows you to detect even small changes in weight, helping identify puppies or kittens that may require additional monitoring or feeding support. Consistent weight gain is one of the best indicators that newborns are feeding well and developing normally.
The curved tray provides a secure and comfortable weighing area, while the large auto backlit LCD display makes readings easy to see, even during late-night feeds and early morning checks.
Featuring a tare function, multiple weighing units, and automatic power-off, this scale is practical, reliable, and easy to use in busy breeding and neonatal care environments.
Why Daily Weighing Matters
Monitoring weight gain is one of the simplest and most effective ways to track the health of newborn puppies and kittens.
Regular weighing can help:
- Confirm puppies and kittens are feeding adequately
- Identify slow weight gain early
- Monitor the effectiveness of supplementary feeding
- Track individual growth within a litter
- Detect potential health concerns before clinical signs develop
For best results, combine daily weighing with puppy identification collars and weight record charts.
