Abstract
An identification assembly for protectively storing information related to an animal wearing the assembly includes a bracelet storage body having a cavity defined therein. The cavity can be configured to store and protect an information-bearing medium on which the information related to the animal can be disposed. A strap assembly can also be provided and includes a strap member and a pair of clasps. The pair of clasps can be coupled to opposite ends of the strap member and can be directly coupleable to opposite ends of the storage body. The clasps can be configured to facilitate removable coupling of the strap assembly to the storage body.

An identification assembly for protectively storing information related to an animal wearing the assembly, comprising:
- a storage body having a cavity defined therein, the cavity being configured to store and protect an information-bearing medium on which the information related to the animal can be disposed;
- and
- a strap assembly, including;
- at least one strap member configured to be secured about an item worn by the animal;
- and
- a pair of clasps, coupled to opposite ends of the at least one strap member and directly coupleable to opposite ends of the storage body, the clasps being configured to facilitate removable coupling of the strap assembly to the storage body;
- wherein
- the storage body includes a lower section and an upper section engageable with each other to thereby cooperatively define the cavity in the storage body.
An identification assembly for protectively storing information related to an animal wearing the assembly, comprising:
- a storage body having a cavity defined therein, the cavity being configured to store and protect an information-bearing medium on which the information related to the animal can be disposed;
- and
- a strap assembly, including;
- at least one strap member, configured to be secured about an item worn by the animal;
- and
- a clasp, having a pair of splayable fingers, each finger including at least one receiving aperture configured to receive at least a portion of the storage body to removably couple the strap assembly to the storage body.
An identification assembly for protectively storing information related to an animal wearing the assembly, comprising:
- a storage body having a cavity defined therein, the cavity being configured to store and protect an information-bearing medium on which the information related to the animal can be disposed;
- the body including a lower and an upper section, the lower and upper sections being engageable with each other to thereby cooperatively define the cavity in the storage body for receiving the information-bearing medium, the lower section including a protruding lower retention arm, and the upper section including a protruding upper retention arm, the lower and upper retention arms each being sized and shaped to cooperatively form a storage body retention arm when the lower and upper sections are engaged with each other;
- and
- a strap assembly, including;
- at least one strap member configured to be secured about an item worn by the animal;
- and
- a clasp, coupled to the strap member and removably coupled to the storage body retention arm, to both couple the storage body to the strap assembly and to secure the lower and upper sections of the storage body in engagement with each other.
A method for storing information related to an animal in an identification assembly wearable by the animal, comprising the steps of:
- providing a substantially water-resistant information-bearing medium on which the information related to the animal can be disposed;
- storing the information-bearing medium within a cavity of the identification assembly defined between a lower and an upper section of a storage body;
- engaging the lower and upper sections with each other;
- and
- clasping a protruding portion of both the lower and upper sections with a clasp coupled to a bracelet strap.
