Sherpa Original Deluxe Airline-Approved Dog & Cat Carrier Bag, Black, Medium

My cat loathes having to go in the car. He rarely has to travel, probably about 8 times a year, to and from major holidays back home. Usually he gets motion sick and won't stop complaining the entire ride home but with this carrier, he is 100% comfortable and doesn't make a peep. When I put him in it he just lays down and watches me get everything together and doesn't complain at all when I put him into the car. When we're at home, I have left the carrier out for him to get accustomed to it with the hopes that maybe he'd like to lay in it sometimes. This carrier is now his favorite bed to sleep in during the day as it's the perfect size for him to feel cozy, as if he were in a box, but also My cat loathes having to go in the car.

The shoulder strap and additional grab handles on the top make carrying this carrier extremely stable, and much easier than any carrier I've had before. With entry points from both the front and top, it is also much easier to get my cat into the carrier. If your cat dislikes travel, definitely get them this carrier, it has helped me and my cat so much!! … more

My dog is 2 inches taller than the recommended height, but his head & neck stick out about 6-8 inches when seated in this crate. As well, he is 11 pounds, the max weight is 16 pounds, I don't think he would be able to move at all if he were 16 pounds - this is really very small & too tight a fit.

Love this carrier! Top opening makes getting my cat in and out simple. It's very sturdy and doesn't fold in on itself when left standing open. Mesh sides make it easier for me to see my cat and her to see me. Best purchase ever!!!

We were using our bigger cat carrier to take our cat to the vet and this carrier bag is SO much better. It's lightweight and easy to carry on your shoulder with an adult cat. My cat has plenty of room and seems pretty comfortable in there. Even if she moves around, I can still easily carry it. It's also easy to put her in and let her out through the top or front. I like that it has pockets so I can store a few things and I can easily put it into my closet when I'm not using it. Overall, very happy with this purchase!

This is a perfect size for my cat, plus when I took the cat in for an exam, the vet did not have to remove the cat from the carrier. It has a zipper opening on the top. The vet unzipped that, checked the cat from there, and gave him the rabies shot. Cat was not stressed at all. They zipped it back up, no issues. It was great. And the fabric, handles, and fact that it folds down are all perfect for storage in the home. Price was right too. Thank you, Chewy.

Love it yet it is so heavy and I might not ever use it. The reason for that is that my cat weighs 16 pounds already and I am elderly myself. By the time I return it with all that aggravation, I figure I'd keep it as I just need something to take my cat to the vet rarely. She is a rescue cat I just have had for 2 1/2 weeks and I know almost nothing about her. All I really needed was something to take her to the vet the construction is superb

Haven't actually used it yet. Have it sitting around open for the cat to get used to it! Seems well constructed and cozy.....think it will be much easier to handle than the plastic crates, and the kitty will feel more secure.

SUCH an improvement over the large plastic carriers I used to use. Both my cats love these bags, and will hang out in them and nap in them if I leave them out after a trip. I think they're just the right size for them to feel cozy and safe. The two entry points are really handy too, and it's nice to be able to reach a hand in for pets if someone is feeling anxious. (Usually me. Ha.) I love that they fold flat for storage too, since my apartment is pretty small. I don't often leave reviews, but these things have been a godsend for making our travels a little less stressful. Would highly recommend!

Our recently received new cat carrier is great. Our cat, Smudge, loves it too. We used to have major issues trying to get him it the old plastic carrier...but know he jumps right in the new one. He really likes the fluffy soft liner too.

This is the second one I have bought. I moved an hour and a half from home with two very different cats. They both stayed in for the whole ride comfortable. I was at ease because I could see and comfort them easily.
