Question

Accepted Answer

Information on the housing of rats, mice, guinea pigs, rabbits, gerbils, ferrets, cats, non-human primates and dogs.

The quality of housing and husbandry for laboratory animals has a major impact on their health and welfare. Environments which do not meet the animals' physical, behavioural and/or social needs can result in physiological changes and abnormal behaviour (e.g. stereotypies) which not only compromise welfare but also influence the validity and reproducibility of scientific data obtained from the animals.
