Using Bed Pads When Toilet Training Kittens

Posted on July 20, 2010 by

I have mentioned about the use of disposable bed pads when protecting a bed or furniture however there are a number of other uses for this product that may surprise you. I’ve been selling a lot of these recently on ebay to various pet owners who are currently toilet training their puppies, kittens and keeping pets.

The pad itself is ideal for this due to the shape and the absorbency of the sheet. The 60 x 60 bed pad or Inco sheet can be placed in a cat litter tray under the to absorb excess moisture. The benefits of doing this means that the litter omits less odour and cleaning the tray a much easier experience.

The sheet itself has a plastic backing with will protect the surface it lays on while the quilted material is made from an absorbent pulp that locks moisture into the pad itself.

There are a number of different uses for this product this is just one of them, For more information regarding these pads please visit our website at http://www.bmsupplies.co.uk/.


If youre looking for a little bit of extra help regarding training your kitten try visiting http://www.caring-for-your-cat.co.uk/ for various hints and tips on looking after your new pet.

Heres some hints & tips for getting your kitten on the right track, I’ve taken this from from http://www.cat-world.com.au/toilet-training-your-kitten please vist their site as they have some excellent ideas and advice here.

Cat Toilet Training – Hints & Tips
By Nancy Wigal

There are several things you need to do to help the mama cat train her kitties to develop good cat litter box habits. While the kids may try to follow mom’s example, here’s how you can help cement that success.
First, since kittens are so physically small and they’re still developing coordination and agility, it’s critical that you, the human mom, make sure they can easily get in and out of any cat litter box. The easiest way to do this is buy disposable aluminium roaster pans from your grocery store. Kittens grow as fast as weeds in the summertime, so this is a temporary, but completely justifiable purchase.

If your regular litter boxes are too tall for the babies to climb in and out, they’ll become discouraged and they’ll select the easiest spot (for them, at least) to eliminate waste. Once they get this idea in their little heads, it could be hard to get out. So, don’t give them the excuse!

The type of litter you use for kittens can be dangerous. Since kittens are so darn curious, they test everything with their mouths. If they eat clumping litter, this could kill them. Use a non-clumping litter for several weeks. It won’t be any easier to watch them taste test the non-clumping litter, but neither will it be dangerous.

Depending upon the size of the litter, you’ll need at least two, and possibly several roasting pans. Since the babies all pretty much eat at the same time, they’ll feel the call of nature in a group as well. You can ensure successful cat litter box habits by making certain there are enough boxes to accommodate a group elimination activity.

Young kitties don’t have great control of their bladder and bowel functions. Place all cat litter boxes in close proximity to their living quarters. Keep the pans away from their food and water, but don’t place them out of the same room, if possible. The closer the pans are, the better the chances are the babies will make it to the box in time to let loose.

Also, make certain that mom is teaching the babies by the time they are five weeks old. If mom seems to be falling down on the job, you must step in during week five of their lives and start the training process. Shortly after the little ones have fed, take them to the litter pan, and place them in it. You may need to gently take a front paw, and scratch for them. Fortunately, almost all cats “get it” very quickly. Your coaching period should be relatively short.

By working with mama cat, the two of you make sure the babies develop good cat litter box habits for life.

Velour Seat Pads

As well disposable protection, such as Inco pads there are a number of washable solutions for protection of furniture, seats and beds.

One such product is the velour seat pad

The outer layer is made from a velour material that soaks in liquid right to the back of the pad and then a plastic backing acts as a waterproof barrier, this means that you can use this product knowing your furniture is 100% protected.

The seat pads are available in 4 Colours Brown, Green, Maroon, RAF Blue and are available from our very own webstore at Bmsupplies.co.uk.

Loler Test & Inspection Guide Lines

Posted on June 11, 2010 by

If you’re thinking about having a mobile hoist, or any form of patient lifting equipment it may be worth learning about Loler testing or inspections as its important to ensure your lifting equipment meets certain criteria.
Don’t worry its only to make sure that the equipment is safe for the user and of course safe for the individual being moved and testing is only carried out twice a year. http://www.bmsupplies.co.uk/ can take care of this for you call us on 01704 553 773

Below is an extract from http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/indg290.pdf you can read the full legal documents here and the site is a good source when needed know the ins and out of loler Testing

What is LOLER?
In the main, LOLER replaced existing legal requirements relating to the use of lifting equipment, for example the Construction (Lifting Operations) Regulations 1961, the Docks Regulations 1988 and the Lifting Plant and Equipment (Records of Test and Examination etc) Regulations 1992. Many aspects of LOLER should therefore be familiar to you.

The Regulations aim to reduce risks to people’s health and safety from lifting equipment provided for use at work. In addition to the requirements of LOLER, lifting equipment is also subject to the requirements of the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998 (PUWER), see Further information.

What equipment is covered by the Regulations?
Lifting equipment includes any equipment used at work for lifting or lowering loads, including attachments used for anchoring, fixing or supporting it. The Regulations cover a wide range of equipment including, cranes, fork-lift trucks, lifts, hoists, mobile elevating work platforms, and vehicle inspection platform hoists.

the definition also includes lifting accessories such as chains, slings, eyebolts etc. LOLER does not apply to escalators, these are covered by more specific legislation, ie the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992.


The type patient lifting equiptment this applys to is:

Do the Regulations apply to me?
If you are an employer or self-employed person providing lifting equipment for use at work, or you have control of the use of lifting equipment, then the Regulations will apply to you. They do not apply if you provide equipment to be used primarily by members of the public, for example lifts in a shopping centre. However, such circumstances are covered by the Health and Safety at Work etc Act 1974 (HSW Act).

While your employees do not have duties under LOLER, they do have general duties under the HSW Act and the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 (MHSWR), for example to take reasonable care of themselves and others who may be affected by their actions and to co-operate with others.

The Regulations cover places where the HSW Act applies – these include factories, offshore installations, agricultural premises, offices, shops, hospitals, hotels, places of entertainment etc.

What do the Regulations require me to do?
You need to ensure that in using any lifting equipment the requirements of LOLER are met.

For example, you should ensure that all lifting equipment is:

  • sufficiently strong, stable and suitable for the proposed use. Similarly, the load and anything attached (eg timber pallets, lifting points) must be suitable;
  • positioned or installed to prevent the risk of injury, eg from the equipment or the load falling or striking people;
  • visibly marked with any appropriate information to be taken into account for its safe use, eg safe working loads. Accessories, eg slings, clamps etc, should be similarly marked.

Additionally, you must ensure that:

  • lifting operations are planned, supervised and carried out in a safe manner by people who are competent;
  • where equipment is used for lifting people it is marked accordingly, and it should be safe for such a purpose, eg all necessary precautions have been taken to eliminate or reduce any risk;
  • where appropriate, before lifting equipment (including accessories) is used for the first time, it is thoroughly examined. Lifting equipment may need to be thoroughly examined in use at periods specified in the Regulations (ie at least six-monthly for accessories and equipment used for lifting people and, at a minimum, annually for all other equipment) or at intervals laid down in an examination scheme drawn up by a competent person. All examination work should be performed by a competent person; and following a thorough examination or inspection of any lifting equipment, a report is submitted by the competent person to the employer to take the appropriate action.

Southport Flowershow 2010 featuring B&M Supplies

Posted on June 10, 2010 by

67a Compton, Southport, Merseyside PR8 4EG – 01704 553 773

Good News!!!

The team over at the Southport Flowershow have their website ready for this year’s event, there’s still news to come regarding what will be happening at the show but you can expect plenty of music from Brass and Steel bands, birds of prey, excellent food and drink and the usual fun & frolics of the many characters at the show its self.

The show its self is a great day out that will suit the whole family, from the youngest to the oldest and people visit from all over the country for one of the best loved events in Southport.
We’ll be back again this year at our usual spot with a few surprises this time, usually we take a few of the mobility scooters we have in-store out and about and give the general public a view of our range and a chance to see how easy they are to use, however this time we will have a few additions that will hopefully “wow” the crowds.

The best part about being involved in a show like this is that we get to see a lot of people using the scooters we’ve sold to them in the past and we get to see some friends we’ve made along the way.

So if you’re thinking of attending this year, why not pop over and say hello
