Abstract: A device for milking an animal, such as a cow. The device is provided with a milking machine with a teat cup to be connected to a teat of an animal, said teat cup being provided with at least one temperature sensor. The device is provided with an activating device for activating the temperature sensor. A device for cleaning a teat of an animal, such as a cow, the device being provided with at least one temperature sensor. A method of milking an animal, such as a cow. The method comprises a control step for controlling the milking process and/or the physical condition of the animal by means of a temperature measurement. The control step comprises the measurement of the temperature over at least the length of a part of the teat and/or over a length of the udder quarter belonging to the teat, in particular of the whole teat and/or the whole quarter.

Abstract: A device for performing one or more animal related treatments on an animal out of a group of animals which are allowed to walk around in an area intended therefor and are able to visit the device voluntarily is provided with means for influencing at least one animal related treatment in dependence of the value of a parameter which is an indication of the expected waiting time for an animal wanting to visit the device. This results in a better utilisation of the capacity of the device. A device for automatically milking animals which are allowed to walk around in an area intended therefor and are able to visit the device voluntarily is provided with a milking robot and is suitable for deciding on the basis of an admission criterion with at least one requirement whether an animal is allowed to visit the milking robot, and/or is suitable for deciding on the basis of a milking criterion with at least one requirement whether or not an animal visiting the milking robot will be milked. The device is provided with means for varying the requirement or requirements of the admission criterion and/or the milking criterion in dependence of the value of a parameter which is an indication of the expected waiting time for an animal wanting to visit the device. This results in a better utilisation of the capacity of the device.
