Airline Approved Soft-Sided Mesh Pet Travel Carrier with Shoulder Strap, Removable Washable Fleece Pad, Top Opening, Ventilation for Dog, Cat, up to 22 pounds, 19.7Lx12Wx12H in., Black

3 YEAR UPDATE: I can't believe I've had my kitty almost 3 years. I still have this carrier and still LOVE it. She still naps in it sometimes and she likes to jump in and out of it while playing. The carrier hasn't shown any signs of damage! It was a great buy that I highly recommend. The only drawback is that she's heavier so it's not as easy to carry her with the shoulder strap, but that's not the carrier's fault. Edited to add: It's been a few months and I still LOVE this carrier. My cat plays in it all the time and scratches at the sides but it doesn't show any sign of damage. I took her to the vet and liked how she could see her surroundings well while being secure in the carrier. I also walked to the vet and it was easy to carry using the shoulder strap. I really am very glad i bought this and my mom has one now for her cats to play in. Original review: I bought this to bring my new cat home from my mom's house, which involved a six hour car ride. I took it to my mom's and set it open on the floor, hoping the new kitty would get used to it and not be scared to go inside. Well, it was a huge hit with all 4 of the cats in the home. They took turns napping in it, and they played with each other through the mesh sides. I was a bit concerned how the mesh would hold up because the kitten seems to think it's a scratching posts, but so far it's fine. It was easy to coax her in after she had spend a few days with The carrier. The kitten didn't enjoy the long car ride and much meowing and scratching ensued, but the carrier was good and fit perfectly behind the front seats. Now we're home and ever though it's only been one day since her harrowing experience, she's already back to napping in the carrier. I guess it's her safe spot, which is great. I plan on buying another for my mom's cats because they loved the thing. I'll update of it doesn't hold up long tem, but it seems well built.

Excellent carrier, TSA compliant as well

Beautiful and perfect for my puppy. Has room enough to turn and move around

This carrier is very sturdy and worked well for my cat, who is about 12 and a half pounds. It looked a little small when it first arrived, but once I put him inside, he was actually able to lay down comfortably. I do wish it was slightly wider, and I still do feel like it’s on the small side if it’s supposed to hold 22lbs. but it still functions well and feels secure during use. The mesh allows for good airflow and visibility, which is great for pets. My cat is a big body, but this carrier is stable enough for him, the color and the design are accurate and the zipper quality seems good so far! The shoulder strap is comfortable. For the price, the quality and durability make it a really good value overall.

When this pet carrier arrived I was afraid it would be too small for my 15-lb. cat. But he loves it! He has room to turn around in it and even likes to nap in it with the door open.

Would definitely recommend. I'm a frequent flyer with my fur baby, and have used this carrier many times for domestic flights. It is a tad larger than most under seat dimensions, so it will stick out. However, I prefer the larger size since my dog is almost 20lbs. Also all sides have mesh so there's a lot of airflow, which I prefer. The padding at the bottom is nonexistent, so I purchased the MidWest 18" crate mat as suggested from another reviewer. There's about an inch or two gap with the crate mat, but it works well to keep my dog cushioned while inside. Works so much better than a small blanket because I don't have to straighten out the blanket every time it bunches up.

The people who complain about this carrier being small aren't kidding. We got the large (the biggest size available as of this writing) and it's small! Our 11lb cat only mostly fits! The fabric feels flimsy, especially the part that clips the handle together. The carrying strap is uncomfortable—and, annoyingly, attaches to the front-side door instead of the top. This means you must either make the strap very long—too long for my 5'6" frame—or unclip it to get the door fully open! Who wants to do that?? The pad feels "meh", not plushy or at all absorbent like the Sherpa pads—a big deal if you have a pet who urinates when scared. The attachment to the carrier bottom—shares Velcro—means you must choose between having the stiffening panel properly affixed (keeping the carrier from collapsing) OR having the pad firmly attached (keeping the cat from sliding)—you cannot have both. While the pad does sort of attach with the panel affixed to the bottom, it's very weak and my cat almost immediately got it loose. Additionally, the bag has basically NO give in any direction if the bottom panel is in place. This is sort of good—many of the other carriers we've owned have developed a tendency to fold in on the cats after a few years' storage—but also means it probably won't work for air travel. The bag is rather tall for its width, too, which makes me even more suspicious that it won't fit under airline seats. We don't plan to fly with this carrier, but I thought people should know. The thin width also means that even our smaller cat can get a front paw on each side of the top entrance and make loading her difficult. I'd rather have a wide but low carrier! We will need to buy a proper Sherpa carrier. I was hoping this one would do—it's half the cost—but it just won't. It'll work for quick vet trips until we get something better, but it's only minimally adequate.

Excellent *time out" space for evil Devil Kitty in need of a cat excorcist. Whenever I need freedom from scratching, biting, leaping attacks, etc. , I am able to insert him into his carrier and zip it up without hurting either of us . He is satisfied to stay in there with several toys so I can finish my food or chore. I do get the 'Cat Eye" stare, but even this is less threatening due to the sturdy black mesh sides. My Tenzin is a Himalayan suffering from a strong adverse Siamese temperament defect, very handsome and smart. This soft carrier is very durable, attractive, and easy to carry while keeping Tenzin and everyone else safe. It even has a zippered opening on top so he can stick his head out and look around when we are in the car. The carrier can be carried by hand, over the shoulder, and even crossbody using the sturdy attached straps. Love it! Tenzin doesn't love it, but he doesn't hate it and he will sleep in it. He even accidentally went in it once on his own and fell asleep! I'm amazed the price was so reasonable. .one main reason I bought it. Nothing is too good for this spoiled kitty! Update: It has been in use now since last April, and I have learned that I can shake the treat bag and yell "kitty treats" and Tenzin (named in honor of the Dalai Lama) will come from anywhere and proceed to the back of the carrier including tucking his impressive long and furry tail in, as long as I have been careful to sprinkle Friskies treats toward the back. If I'm slow at zipping, I just turn the carrier on it's back end so cat and all slide that way and I get on with zipping. I am such a softie when it comes to this cat that I always use the treats to lure him in because me trying to 'stuff' Tenzin the Terrible into his kitty purse and KEEP him in there long enough to zip it is worthy of a YouTube video. I would post a photo of my hands and arms, but I can hear you saying in horror, "She let him do THAT to her!?" He's getting better, though, and he's very funny sometimes. He rolls the Cat Purse over sometimes, usually only one turn, but earlier this week he managed about three turns so he was under the pad and not happy to be there. I like that the pad is removable so it can be washed, but I also wish it was harder to remove so it would stay off Tenzin's head.

Assez spacieux pour un gros chat et a l'air solide. Je pense que les voyages seront moins stressants pour mon chat. Bon rapport qualité/prix (payé moins de 25 €).

Good quality, it fits my 3 cats (2 kittens & 1 adult)

Seems well constructed and durable, but yet to be tested. The carrier feels roomy for its small size. This is the perfect size for many airlines

Buenísimo muy burna calidad y tamaño, su manejo y forma de guardar es práctico lo recomiendo

Good Product
