Skamper Ramp Keeps Pets from Drowning in Your Pool
Swimming pools are great for cooling off in the summer, but drowning can be a real threat, not only for small children but for pets as well.
A lot of residential pools don’t have steps that would allow a cat or dog to escape if it jumped in. Also, if you live in the country, everything from moles to raccoons to skunks might stop by during the night. Steep pool walls and water lines below the deck level can be too hard for critters to navigate, leaving you with an unpleasant surprise when you step into the backyard in the morning.
So, what’s a good way to get rid of this risk? You could try something like the “Skamper Ramp.”
The simple white plastic ramp can be attached to pool decks, walled ponds, and most docks (it can also be attached to some boats, depending on design). Because all living beings see white, animals can see the ramp whether it’s day or night, and they can “skamper” up the ramp to safety after their swim.
Prices start at $38.95. There’s plenty of time to outfit your swimming pool for the summer.
