The Skamper- Ramp® is the only inexpensive, tested, proven, patented, drowning prevention, animal water escape/safety ramp where you don't have to be present to save animal lives. Because all living beings see white, they can see it, day or night, and they escape when they "skamper" out on the ramp on their own.  Skamper Ramp is a great saving device for all types of animals.
