Care Instructions
To give your pet the most comfortable home away from home, clean the kennel routinely with a mild, non-toxic cleaner and water.
How to select the best size kennel:
- While your dog is standing, measure your dog from the tip of their nose to base of their tail.
- While your dog is sitting or standing, measure your dog from the top of their head to the floor.
- Add 4 inches to determine maximum measurements. Remember, your dog should be able to stand up and turn around while in their kennel.

Is this kennel escape proof?
This kennel is not escape proof. Please kennel train your dog. For training tips, please see the instruction manual. Does my dog have to be kennel-trained to use this kennel? To make sure your dog adapts well to their new kennel, we recommend looking at the “Kennel Travel and Training Tips” section on the instruction manual and monitoring your pet closely during the first few days.
What is the best way to kennel train?
Begin by slowly introducing dog to crate encouraging the dog with positive reinforcement. Allow dog to acclimate to the crate slowly. Always consult vet or trainer for specific training tips!

This kennel is not recommended or tested for use with small animals.

Yes, but it is recommended to go on a test run first. Before using the kennel to take your pet someplace she doesn’t want to go, like the vet, do a practice run and go somewhere fun.

Good cat carrier
By Cassia on Feb 12, 2021
Bought two of these 24” ones for our new kitties. Two 6 month old kittens (~7 lbs each) fit in one comfortably, but we have two for when they are bigger. The carrier did feel secure when carrying it with both of them in it. It was easy to assemble and the instructions were clear. It came with extra bolts and plastic nuts that hold the top and bottom together. From recommendations in other reviews, we bought two of the 22 inch Sherpa beds and they fit inside nicely. As other reviews have said, the top entry door doesn’t stay open nicely - a little bump and it’ll fall, so you just have to be careful or use a second set of hands.

Works as described
By Taylor on Feb 24, 2021
This product is exactly what was described! It is easy to put together and feels very secure. I was a bit nervous about the top loader opening, but with 2 kittens inside it felt sturdy. The kittens also enjoy it. I keep it out for them to use as a little den and they often take naps there. For reference, I picked up my kittens both in a single carrier, and they were about 4 lbs each. I was afraid it would be too small for both even though they are babies, but they fit fine!

Fantastic!
By MissPJ on Feb 8, 2021
This was great! I bought it for my puppy and knew I would only be able to use it a few months before she’d grow out of it, so I did not want to spend too much on a carrier. I loved that this carrier came in a slightly larger size than a standard cat carrier, perfect for puppies and for chonky cats :) This carrier was a fantastic price for really great quality. Takes about 2 minutes to put together, and it’s not flimsy at all. Love the top door feature too!

Good carrier, but don’t trust the top load carry handle
By Sonya on Jan 21, 2021
The carrier worked great for the vet visit I had on Friday. The size is good but the top entry door seems a little chintzy. There is no way I would ever carry using the top carry handle because of that reason. Especially since one of my cats is very large (over the recommended weight - which I knew during purchase.) But even with my normal size cat who is under the recommend weight limit, I would not carry from the top load handle. The size it perfect and I don’t mind carrying it in a hug style fashion. I would recommend this product for its 2 load and unload options, but would remove the carry handle because of people that don’t understand or regard the limitations.

Great Kennel!
By Callie on Jan 29, 2021
This is an excellent kennel. I got this for my kitten because I really liked the idea of a second door on top. It has been great and has made it much easier to take her in and out. Good quality, very sturdy. Everything is great l the only thing I wish that it had is the snaps around the sides so that you can take it apart quickly and stack together for storage or travel. This one has a lot of screws keeping the top and bottom together, which is no problem if you aren’t planning to break it down much. Great product!!

it’s ok for temp usage
By BeeHonest on Jan 24, 2021
Had it for two weeks. It’s made of plastic and easy to put together. I wish it had a latch to keep door or lid open as I am using this as a crate. But a bungee cord works. The only thing I didn’t like was the handle, it didn’t seemed sturdy. When I pick my dog up to the car in the crate it’s not sturdy and a lot momentum to swing. He has neck pains and that would cause more pain. I have to pick up with both hands. But overall it’s not bad but not overall excited about.

Very Nice pet Kennel and Pad
By NesaR on Feb 22, 2021
Love the kennel and soft plush furry Grey ( pad) bed that was recommended. I bought the 24 inch size which was medium for my Black cat. She crawled right in it. It fits her perfect. I wanted her not to be too cramped in it like my small one for the vet visits. Glad I read people’s views. Very easy to put together.

Poor Design
By Sarah on Jan 26, 2021
When I first received this product I was very happy with it. The more I used it the more I started noticing issues. One of the reasons I bought the kennel was because of the top door. However, there are issues due to poor design. Almost everytime I open the top door it does not stay up on its own. It has slammed on my dog's head quite a few times. The other issue I have is the handle to carry the kennel is not centered and I think this partly due to the open grates. When I hold the kennel with my dog it doesn't stay steady and I find that very frustrating. My most recent issue is that the top door popped off the top and I have struggled and failed to pop it back. I would definitely not recommend When I first received this product I was very happy with it. The more I used it the more I started noticing issues.

Easy Access Sturdy & Colorful
By WeLoveToys on Feb 18, 2021
Bright and beautifully colored. Easy open top for you & your best friend to see and play together. Its sturdy and let me tell you huge I got the larger one but I could have purchased the smaller one. For I could put both of my cats in it and still have room. They don't like to share their transportation though. Lol

Chip in plastic
By MushuMom on Feb 4, 2021
We bought this crate as a present to announce a puppy that would be forthcoming. We didn't set it up until we brought the dog home two weekends ago. After setting up I noticed a chip/hole in the plastic that should not be there. Otherwise it's a great crate. I would recommend it if you get one without the hole. I like the top door.
