Cat Carriers & Travel

关于

A cat carrier gets used more than most people expect - vet visits, moving house, a trip to the cattery - and the style that suits you depends far more on how you carry the cat than on the cat itself. Most of the pet carriers on this page are rated for cats and small dogs alike, so the choice below is about carrying style rather than species. Carrier styles Backpacks - hands free, with mesh windows or a clear PVC panel and a skylight; some have an extendible rear room Slings and handbags - shoulder-carried soft bags with a mesh panel, for short trips and small cats Soft-sided carriers - collapsible, lighter than hard cases and easier to store flat Hard-case carriers - rigid shells that hold their shape, easier to clean and to strap into a car Trolleys and wheeled carriers - caster wheels for heavier cats or longer distances Strollers - folding prams for senior or mobility-limited pets, including double-decker and 3-in-1 car-seat models Getting the fit right A carrier should let your cat stand, turn around and lie flat. Check the stated weight limit rather than the external dimensions, and leave the carrier open at home in the days before a trip so it stops being an object that only appears before the vet. Brands Ibiyaya covers the widest span here - carriers, strollers, rain covers, organisers and bike adapters. M-Pets and Ferplast make the hard-case carriers, KONG the 2-in-1 carrier and travel bed mat, and the PeekAPaw range covers backpacks and slings.
