SportPet Designs Sport Pet Foldable Travel Cat Carrier with A Waterproof Bed - Front Door Plastic Collapsible Carrier, Gray (CM-10064-CS01)

I am so happy this carrier came back available in this size. I bought one this size before and lent it to a friend of mine. I have the ex-large carrier that fits both of my cats in it. This is purrfect size and shape for one cat. I find the shape makes it easier to carry and A LOT easier to fasten with the seat belt in the car. This carrier is sturdy, folds up for storage, and getting the fur babies into the carrier is so much easier than the box carriers. Definingly recommend this carrier!

This is the best carrier I've used for our cats, we got a kitten recently and needed something I could easily take both it and our older cat in to the vet. This is so an easy design, set up took seconds and it's not awkward to carry like those big crates. It's plastic all the way through so we did put a blanket in the bottom but not actually needed. The gate closes and locks so they can't get out. The openings in it are wide tho and the kitten was scratching us through it, he thought it was a fun game. It wasn't lol. It's stable once it's snapped together and locked into place and LOVE that it folds up flat for easy storage! So glad we purchased this. For reference one cat is 10lbs and the other is 4lb, plenty of room! Also I have a baby and 8yo in tow so this being light as heck and easy to carry- I'm sold!

Most of us know that getting kitties in a carrier - ANY CARRIER - is pretty much like the "Simon's Cat" video of when he takes his kitty to the vet. :-D It can be a stressful nightmare! Do I still have difficulty even though I bought this awesome carrier? Of course I do! Not the carrier's fault - this carrier is FABULOUS! First, it folds down to put away. Carriers are bulky and take up a lot of space in store - not these! It folds down and stores beautifully. And sturdy? YES! Just because it folds down doesn't mean that it's flimsy feeling and not sturdy to hold your kittie or doggie! Thick plastic that's sturdy. And let's not forget the "front door"! Walk in - walk out. No lifting your cat or dog and then dropping them in like a submarine. Ha Ha! Now, again, I'm not promising you that kittie (because dogs are usually much easier) won't "put up a fight", but that still doesn't mean that this "front door" isn't well-thought-out and much easier once they are inside. My veterinarian and their vet techs really like this carrier ; I get compliments all of the time and "Where did you get that?" I have 3 indoor kitties and bought the XL size for my one bigger kittie and 2 large size for my 2 medium size kitties. Wipe clean, very ventilated, folds down for storage, a "natural feeling front door", very sturdy - wonderful carrier! I am so happy that I found them!

I finally decided to get new cat carriers since one is way too small, and the other is too big and held together with zip ties. I also have had a terrible time getting my smaller cat into the small carrier, as unlike her sister, who waltzes in the door willingly, she's a fighter who wont go down without a fight.So after this latest cat wrangling experience, I went looking online and found these carriers. Initially I bought two, one regular and one larger XL size, but I could tell just by looking at the size of the box that the XL was WAY too big for my needs. I ended up returning it and eventually bought a second regular.The regular size is perfect for me, my cats are average sized, with one being a bit heavier than the other, but they both fit comfortably in these carriers. Having a cat bed is also nice, gives a bit of comfort for them while they're in there, better than the towels I used to put in there that slid around and bunched up.When folded, the carrier is far more compact than non-folding ones (naturally). This is great since I feel like in most cases, people only break the carrier out for vet trips or if they're taking a pet on a long trip, so instead of these bulky crates you need to store, you can fold them up and put them in the bottom of a closetThe folding aspect was a strong selling point, however my favorite aspect is the large door. For myself, this makes it far easier to get my escape artist cat into the carrier, as I'm not trying to get her through a little door that she can brace her paws against, and instead I just lower her in and can swing the door up while one hand holds her from jumping out.Overall I'm a huge fan, and honestly I'm a bit disappointed I have to wait until their next vet appointment to really give these a good use. Maybe I'll just put them in and walk around the house for a bit, get them used to the carriers.
