Specs & features.
Veterinary animal handling gloves act as essential personal protective equipment (PPE) against both physical trauma and the transmission of zoonotic diseases (e.g., cat scratch disease or rabies). While often resembling thick welding gloves, they are specifically engineered for agility, combining puncture-resistant exteriors with comfortable, moisture-absorbent interiors.

- Bite-Resistant Materials: Typically constructed using thickened cowhide, reinforced leather, or durable synthetic fibers like DuPont Kevlar, these gloves create a tough barrier against teeth and claws.
- Extended Gauntlets: They feature long cuffs (ranging from 16 to 24 inches) that extend over the forearm and wrist to shield vulnerable areas from sudden scratches and bites.
- Reinforced Stress Areas: Critical high-risk zones, such as the palm and fingertips, usually include double-layered leather or Kevlar padding to provide maximum protection without sacrificing utility.
