The base defines a bed, a first finger grip coupled to the bed, opposing slotted posts coupled to the base and extending therefrom where the bed meets the first finger grip, and a ramp disposed in the bed. The top defines a cap, a second finger grip coupled to the cap, and opposing support posts coupled to the cap and extending therefrom where the cap meets the second finger grip. Each support post includes a hinge pin extending therefrom for engagement with one of the base's slotted posts. The spring element is disposed between the base and the cap for biasing the first finger grip away from the second finger grip.
