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!
Can this be used for small animals?
This kennel is not recommended or tested for use with small animals.
Is this kennel airline approved?
This carrier is approved for airline travel, but it is important to always check with your airline to make sure you understand their guidelines for flying with pets.
Can this kennel be used in the car?
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. Take her on an adventure to the dog park, dog beach, a friend’s house, or even just around the neighborhood and back so that being in the kennel isn’t a cause for her to be scared or upset.
Are kennels stackable?
Never stack kennels with animals inside.

Excellent Carrier
By Donna on Oct 16, 2021
Excellent Carrier. Easy to assemble. Nice and roomy for my cat that stresses in other smaller carriers. Easy to clean. Easy to open doors. Sturdy and well ventilated. The floor is hard and has troughs (designed to catch liquid), so I recommend a nice thick towel or some padding for cushioning. I purchased a washable pad to put in the bottom of the carrier for my cat to lay on. Highly recommend.

Best Carrier Ever
By Mindy on Oct 20, 2021
I got the 24' in Pink and black. It's gorgeous in color. Made so well and sturdy. If your cat is bigger definitely go with the bigger size.. Awesome price too.. Bandit has plenty of room and the top loading door is a dream come true. Very well made and easy to put together.. Very very satisfied with my purchase.

Great carrier, my kitten loves it!
By melhar1020 on Oct 6, 2021
My kitten really likes this carrier. We tried a soft sided one like the duffle bag carrier type and she hated that. So I ordered this instead and she’s not distressed at all when traveling. It was easy to assemble and the door openings (top and front) are easy to open and close. I’d recommend this carrier! I got the 19” one so I hope I don’t regret getting the 24” one, ha!

SO FAR SO GOOD
By Julio on Oct 19, 2021
This carrier is a good size, perfect for smaller cats at least. Easy to carry and lightweight, the top loading feature is very handy too. Funny how it took the carrier makes a long time to figure that one out, and of course I should have gotten this long ago for my efforts at TNR.

Am Very Happy With Frisco Two Door Top Load Plastic Dog & Cat Kenne
By Tweety on Oct 1, 2021
I haven't had a chance to use it yet for my cat, but I know he will be much happier in it than his old carrier. It is very roomy and the front & top load features are excellent. Much easier to get my cat in the carrier and will be easier at the vet's office also. It's very well made and seems sturdy. It was a great choice for my cat and I'm sure anyone else who orders it will be as content.

Love top access
By Sami on Oct 18, 2021
The access from the top makes it so much more convenient to not only put your cat in or take it out of the carrier but to pet or put food or water inside. I bought this and the one made by Frisco because I wanted to know how they compared and they are identical in every respect.

Love the Carrier
By paulac23 on Aug 29, 2021
I wanted a top opening carrier because my cats are hard to get into the ones that open on the end. So many of the others had poor reviews because the top door didn't lock securely. This one does. Unfortunately it had a manufacturing flaw in it, that I believe would soon cause a major crack, plus it was rough at that area and would get caught on clothing. Chewy, as usual, provided their excellent customer service, refunded my money, and advised me to donate it to the shelter. They've been out of stock, but will be reordering as soon as they are back in stock.

Colorful and well made
By DesertLady on Sep 16, 2021
I have bought two of these crates. One in blue and the other in pink. The style of crate works well for my needs of transporting the cats to and from the veterinarian. Plus one of our cats have decided the crate is a great place to take a nap. I’m impressed with how sturdy these crates are. Both of the cats are on the heavier side and it accommodates them comfortably including a crate mat. However I suggest if your cat is plump to pick up the crate on the sides instead of the handle. The top door is very useful for getting a cat in and out of the crate but it’s not as secure in latching while carrying it.

great carrier
By Milo on Sep 28, 2021
I got this because it’s often easier to get the cats in the top opening. It’s more than enough room for my old girl and even fit all 5 of my kittens (for a little while) Now that my kittens are getting bigger I’m getting another one.

The perfect transport for your pet.
By Brad on Oct 8, 2021
So my cat is a bit chonky. He’s 17 pounds. This pet carrier worked perfectly. The top hatch is ideal for adding a reluctant pet to get in. The carrier is well-made and sturdy. I had no problem carrying him in it.
