Petmate See & Extend Dog & Cat Carrier Bag

Purchased these carriers to put cats in during a remodel of home while workers were here. Love the little extender and the mesh, they have room to stretch out and not feel closed in. They are able to see around and not be boxed in like the hard plastic ones. The straps are also going to make it very easy to get them to their vet visits, it's lightweight. We do have one that figured out how to unzip the zipper and escape but he is out little escape artist in anyway. Would recommend these carriers to anyone with small animals.

I have a 13-14lb chihuahua/minpin/dachshund mix who fits in it, hes about 20 inches tall. He has to duck a little when its zipped but seems very comfortable sitting in it with the top open and is tethered to the inside clip. However hes pretty heavy for one shoulder and i even put the strap across my chest to the opposite shoulder for added comfort but it puts too much weight on the shoulder and becomes painful. But for people looking for a breathable durable carrier i highly recommend this one. Just not for carrying for a half hour or more on dogs heavier than 12lbs unless you've got strong shoulder muscles. I'll be looking for a good backpack style carrier instead.

This was a perfect size for my 13 lb. Havanese on his first air travel. The extended side is a clever feature and added more room without breaking any airline rules. The only downside is that this bag has only one small side pocket. A couple of more pockets to stick my boarding pass or phone would have made it even better.

Got this for a neo natal kitten I found, used it as warming bed as well as a carrier..... perfect!

My cat loved it. She had room to turn around. It was an easy first trip to the vet. She weighs 13.75 lbs. I haven't used the "sun room" extended area) for her yet, but I'm sure she'll love it.

I had one of these for my dog, who sleeps in it every nite. Since getting a cat, he would sneak into the tent part whenever the dog wasn't in it. I got him his own and he loves it! His own private getaway with room to stretch. It's like a portable crate if you travel.

I really like my new pet carrier, and my 14 lb dog likes it too. The extension and many openings made it easy to get her part way inside and be comfortable there, getting a tummy rub. Later I held a treat through the top opening to lure her all the way in. I was able to zip the extension so she was fully enclosed, and she could turn around easily, still relaxed. Gradually I got her comfortable being zipped in with the sides up and carried her around the house a little. She did very well on her first flight, easily fitting under the middle SWA seat in front of me. The only problem was no leg room for myself, but she was fine. I'm grateful chewy refunded me right away for the other carrier I really like my new pet carrier, and my 14 lb dog likes it too.

Garfield loves his carrier. He sleeps in it frequently.

My 9 month old, 11.5lb kitten had his first trip in this carrier recently and it worked very well. The extender part of the carrier unzips from the outside but there is an inside flap that also needs to be unzipped as well or else your pet won't be able to enjoy the extra room! I keep the inside flap unzipped and tucked under the mat insert so I can easily extend the carrier without all the extra unzipping. There's also a fixed hook in the carrier that you can attach to your pet's collar as a means to keep them even more secure, but I don't see much use for it for my cat and I wish it was removable as he likes to chew. I also tuck that under the insert mat and it seems to work well. All in all My 9 month old, 11.5lb kitten had his first trip in this carrier recently and it worked very well.

We purchased this carrier to bring our new puppy home and have since traveled by car several times with him in his carrier. He has plenty of room & the expandable side is perfect to give him extra room to stretch. He loves it, so then I do too. We have yet to travel by plane, but will definitely check with airlines before hand on the whether it is acceptable for carry-on the flight traveling.
