An inhalation therapy enclosure includes a base with end walls joined by a rear wall. A cover having two panels joined perpendicularly is hinged to the top of the rear wall. When lowered, the cover forms an enclosure with the end wall, rear wall and base. Latches secure the cover to the base. A port in one end wall allows introduction of nebulized medication or anesthesia while a port of equal size in the opposing end wall allows exhaust from the enclosure.

Having described the invention, I claim: 1. Apparatus for veterinary treatment comprising a planar base having a rear wall upstanding thereon, sidewalls upstanding on the base, at least one sidewall joined to a first end of the rear wall, at least a second sidewall joined to an opposing end of the rear wall, a cover hinged to a top of the rear wall, the cover comprising a first panel joined to a second panel, the second panel and the first panel defining an angle therebetween, the cover cooperating with the base, the rear wall and the sidewalls to define a closed enclosure for a small animal, the first panel of the cover touching the planar base when the cover is positioned to close the enclosure, an intake port in one of the sidewalls or in the rear wall, an exhaust port in one of the sidewalls or in the rear wall, whereby a medicament useful for treatment of an animal may be injected through the intake port into an interior of the closed enclosure. 2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the angle defined by the second panel and the first panel is between forty-five and one hundred thirty-five degrees. 3. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the second panel and the first panel define a substantial perpendicular. 4. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the intake port is coupled to nebulizer apparatus. 5. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the intake port and the exhaust port are of substantially equal area. 6. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein at least one bracket is fixed to the rear wall at an outside surface thereof, the cover touchingly engaging the bracket when the cover is fully open. 7. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein at least one catch member is mounted to one of the cover and the base, at least one latch member is mounted to the other of the cover and the base, the at least one latch member interlockable to said at least one catch member. 8. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein a first of the sidewalls is joined at a substantial perpendicular to a first end of the rear wall, a second of the sidewalls is joined at a substantial perpendicular to a second end of the rear wall, the first panel of the cover is joined to the second panel thereof by a substantial perpendicular, the intake port is located in the first of the sidewalls, the exhaust port is located in the second of the sidewalls, at least one manually operable latch is mounted to the cover, a catch element interlockable with the at least one latch is mounted to the base, a pair of brackets is fixed to the rear wall at an outside surface thereof, the cover touchingly engaging the brackets when the cover is fully open, each port includes a tube for attachment of a duct thereto, a transparent window in each of the first panel and the second panel. 9. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the medicament is an inhalable anesthetic. 10. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the medicament is a drug in a nebulized state. 11. Apparatus for veterinary treatment comprising a planar bottom wall having a rear wall upstanding thereon, a first sidewall permanently joined to the rear wall, the first sidewall upstanding on the base, a second sidewall permanently joined to the rear wall and spaced apart from the at least a first sidewall, a cover hinged to a top of the rear wall, the cover comprising a first panel joined to a second panel, the first panel of the cover touching the bottom wall when the cover is positioned to close the enclosure, the cover cooperating with the bottom wall, the rear wall and the sidewalls to define a closed enclosure for a small animal, an intake port in one of the sidewalls or the rear wall, an exhaust port in one of the sidewalls or the rear wall, whereby a fluid useful for treatment of an animal may be injected through the intake port into an interior of the closed enclosure. 12. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein the rear wall is elongate, the first sidewall is fixed to a first end of the rear wall, the second sidewall is fixed to an opposing end of the rear wall, the cover hinged to the top of the rear wall. 13. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein the second panel and the first panel defines a fixed angle therebetween. 14. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein the second panel and the first panel defining approximately a perpendicular therebetween. 15. The apparatus of claim 11 wherein a latch selectively secures the first panel to the planar bottom wall. 16. Apparatus for veterinary treatment comprising a base having a rear wall upstanding thereon, sidewalls upstanding on the base, at least one sidewall joined to a first end of the rear wall, at least a second sidewall joined to an opposing end of the rear wall, a cover hinged to a top of the rear wall, the cover comprising a first panel joined to a second panel, the second panel and the first panel defining an angle therebetween, the cover cooperating with the base, the rear wall and the sidewalls to define a closed enclosure for a small animal, an intake port in one of the sidewalls, an exhaust port in one of the sidewalls, at least one bracket fixed to the rear wall at an outside surface thereof, the cover touchingly engaging the bracket when the cover is fully open, the at least one bracket comprising a base and an angularly upwardly extending arm, the arm extending away from the outside surface of the rear wall, the cover abutting the arm of the at least one bracket when the cover is fully open, whereby a medicament useful for treatment of an animal may be injected through the intake port into an interior of the closed enclosure. 17. An inhalation therapy enclosure for veterinary use comprising a planar floor and a multiplicity of sidewalls, a first of the multiplicity of sidewalls being a rear wall, a second of the sidewalls joined to an end of the wall, a third of the sidewalls joined to an opposing end of the rear wall, the rear wall and the second and third of the sidewalls standing upright upon the floor and fixed thereto, a cover hinged to the rear wall at substantially a top thereof, the cover comprising a first panel joined to a second panel, the second panel of the cover providing a top wall when the cover is in a closed position, the first panel providing a front wall of the enclosure when the cover is in the closed position, the first panel touching the floor when the cover is in the closed position, an intake port through one of the sidewalls, an exhaust port through one of the sidewalls, the cover cooperating with the floor and the sidewalls to define a closed enclosure for an animal, whereby a medicament may be provided through the intake port into an interior of the closed enclosure.
