Emerald Line Pouch Cage Top for EM500 Mouse Cage

The EM500 Pouch Top is a dual-purpose accessory for Emerald EM500 cages that functions both as an enrichment loft and as a secure pouch holder for water bags or emergency hydration. Its integrated pouch depression lets the unit hold a water pouch when connected to an auto-watering system, while the loft orientation provides vertical enrichment and a safe, elevated refuge for mice in the unlikely event of cage flooding. The compact design requires no extra facility space and installs directly between the lid and the cage rim for easy use during routine care. Durable and autoclavable, the pouch top supports animal welfare and practical workstation organization in high-throughput environments.

• Dual-purpose design - serves as enrichment when used as a loft and as a secure holder for water pouches when connected to an auto-watering system.
• Space-efficient integration - fits inside the cage area without requiring additional facility space, keeping workflows compact and organized.
• Animal safety & enrichment - provides an elevated “safe haven” and promotes natural behaviors while offering backup hydration options.
