What we like

  • Spring frame fits under most seats
  • Washable faux-lambskin liner

Keep in mind

  • Confirm your airline's size limits
  • Soft sides offer less protection than a hard carrier

Our in-depth look

Who it's for

Cats and small dogs travelling in the cabin, and owners who want a soft carrier that's easy to carry.

Who should skip it

Pets over the size limit; strong scratchers may damage the mesh.

Tips

Leave it open at home with a blanket inside so your cat sees it as a safe place before the vet trip.
