Prefer Pets Travel Gear Privacy Pet Carrier, Purple Mosaic

I have not traveled with this yet. I wanted to point out that the directions for installing the horse-shoe shaped supports need a better drawing, and it should not be shown on an adhesive label stuck to the plastic shipping bag. The illustrations in the directions are annoyingly small, so it's hard to see that there are THREE slip pockets for installing the support- one small pocket on each side of the opening, inside the carrier, near the bottom of the carrier.The THIRD slip pocket runs across the top of the opening on the inside of the carrier. It is a longer pocket, and you'll have to be careful not to bend the support too far, otherwise it will get a crease that may cause the support to fold in on itself. Install, and repeat on the other end of the carrier. Once you install the supports in all 3 pockets, the carrier maintains its shape.What I like most about this carrier is that it looks like a piece of overnight luggage, so that other passengers might not realize there is an animal inside. There is plenty of ventilation after you unzip and roll back all the flaps. The rubberized coating on the mesh has a strong odor, so be sure to air it out before you put your love bug in there. You can carry it by a padded handle on top, or use the shoulder strap. Unfortunately, the shoulder strap isn't long enough to wear the carrier cross-body, or to be easily able to slip it over your head before boarding.My recommendations are: lengthen the shoulder strap, provide more padding on the shoulder strap, provide a better drawing for the instructions, provide a better quality insert and attachment strap for the ID tag, You might also consider providing a way to insert perches, and lock them in place, for parrots so they don't have to walk in their droppings.Other than that, this is a very attractive and well-designed carrier.

I was moving my 17 yo cat 2100 miles and decided to fly him, instead of subject him to a 4 day road trip. I bought and compared 3 different airline approved carriers. This is the one I kept and it worked perfectly! It has a lot of ventilation but still offers a lot of privacy, which is great for nervous cats. It has a couple of pockets to stash small items and at least one (maybe two) zippered openings where you can stick your hand in to pet/calm the cat w/o fear of it escaping. It fit great underneath the Delta seat and was easy to carry. Yes, my arms got tried carrying the carrier with my cat in it through the airport, but I suspect that would have happened with any carrier. I plan to use this as his vet carrier (hopefully no more flights!). Flying with a nervous cat is stressful, but this carrier was stress-free.

I love this pet carrier. It's very sturdy, looks nice, very versatile with zipper covers over breathable fabric. Opens on top & at both ends and has a storage pocket which I use for important puppy papers. My only complaint is it's rather large for my 4 lb chihuahua, but that's my fault. I still use & love it. I highly recommend for stylish travel with your baby(s).

I actually wanted the larger 17" length one, but none had the option of shipping to my country. So I bit the bullet and ordered this 15" one, all the time wondering if it would be too small for my 9-10kg (20-22 pounds) kitty. It is indeed a little more snug than I would have liked -- but seeing as this is for trips to the vet, and not for long-haul travel, it is fine. When cats are at or going to the vets', they are not exactly going to be all sprawled out. As you can see from the photo below, taken at the vets', there is still some room to spare. And if this oversized kitty fits in there, then the other regular-sized ones should have no problems.There are so many reasons to like this product:-Soft carriers are so much easier to handle than hard ones, especially when getting in and out of cabs.I really liked that there are privacy covers - shields kitty from rain when I am getting in and out of the cab, prevents curious dogs from peering into carrier and scaring my kitty, keep the cold from powerful airconditioning from chilling kitty.One of the reasons I chose this particular carrier over all the other soft carriers was the grid measurement of the mesh used - this is the only one I found that's big - the other carriers had meshes that are more like insect screens; and such a fine mesh in the hot humid conditions of this tropical isle would mean that the temperature IN the carrier would become too high for an already stressed kitty.The shoulder strap is another reason for choosing this carrier. Most of the other soft carriers had shoulder straps that are attached to the two ends of the carrier -- this means that, with the weight of the animal in there, the carrier would fold in on itself, with the strap pulling the two ends towards each other, thereby pressing in onto/against the animal's face. I don't know about kitty, but I sure wouldn't like that!Already, we are considering buying another for our multi-cat household -- never mind that we have like 6 hard carriers!

It was way too big and bulky to "pass as a purse!" It was very cute, but way too big for my 5 1/2 pound dog!

This Pet carrier is very nice and privacy. It's good for the pet. Less stress from other things and it's confortable.

Tiene las formas y los detalles de muy buena calidad, los materiales y el diseño son muy buenos. Cargo a mi mascota sin ningún problema.
