## Frequently Asked Questions

### What is a veterinary oxygen cage?
A veterinary oxygen cage (also called an ICU cage or oxygen kennel) is an enclosed chamber that delivers controlled oxygen therapy to dogs, cats, and other animals recovering from surgery, respiratory distress, or critical illness.

### Why is VetFlex soda lime-free?
Traditional veterinary oxygen cages require soda lime canisters to absorb CO₂. VetFlex's AERAFLOW™ technology uses a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) process to continuously cycle fresh oxygen, eliminating soda lime entirely. This reduces ongoing consumable costs and maintenance.

### Are Natrle gloves really biodegradable?
Yes. Natrle gloves use EBT (Eco-Best Technology) additives that allow the nitrile material to biodegrade in biologically active landfill conditions. ASTM D5511 testing shows significant biodegradation within 2-5 years compared to 100+ years for standard nitrile.

### Does VetFlex offer financing?
Yes. VetFlex partners with financing providers to offer monthly payment plans for ICU oxygen cage systems, making them accessible to practices of all sizes.

### Where is VetFlex based?
VetFlex is headquartered in the United States with warehouse locations in California and Missouri.
