Prefer Pets Backpack Pet Carrier, Black

Cat likes it as much as she could, and I love that it’s a backpack and hand carry, it’s perfect!

Love love love this carrier. I waited until I had used it a few times to write a review because I was somewhat afraid it would be flimsy and not hold up to airline travel, but this is the best carrier I've ever owned. I got it for my wee dog to replace a medium size Sherpa we had before, and it's better for a number of reasons: 1) Tapered top - The shape of the carrier gives my dog more head room than the Sherpa did, but because it's sort of triangular it can actually go under your arm. This makes it easier to carry and gives my dog more head room. It also means that when you pick the carrier up by the top handle, it keeps its shape and the dog isn't suddenly smushed as the fabric pulls inward on the sides. 2) Backpack straps - Need I elaborate? I don't know why all carriers don't have them. This is the reason I bought this carrier in the first place. 3) Suitcase strap - The strap to go over my rolling suitcase's telescoping handle is small & firm so the carrier doesn't move around or sag forward like the others I've had in the past did. That means the floor also stays flat (mostly) and in place on top of the suitcase, so my dog is still comfortable up there. You could also use this to buckle the carrier into a car seat with a seatbelt and it would stay pretty solidly in place, I imagine. 4) Overall frame - The frame is sturdy but very flexible, making it much easier than other carriers to put under the seat. This also makes boarding and disembarking a lot more pleasant for your pet, because you don't have to tilt the carrier to put it under the seat. I was concerned at first that the smaller footprint would mean my dog would be uncomfortable, but this is going to be up to your pet's personality. Mine likes to sleep laying against something so she doesn't seem to miss the wider Sherpa space in the slightest. Your pet's mileage may vary. Aside from this, this has a lot of other advantages over the boxy Sherpa-style carriers that make it more practical, mostly the more flexible frame and more practical shape. Other thinner & wire-framed carriers can have these advantages, but this carrier in particular does it better than the other ones I've tried-- mostly, I think, because of the less boxy shape and more strategic placement of the straps. Overall this is a great carrier. I could put it under my arm, on my back, or on top of my rolling briefcase as necessary with ease and while keeping my dog comfortable & steady. She was happier, I was happier, this thing rocks.

軽量で使い勝手が良いです。愛猫の通院に使っています。以前使用していたものはプラスティック製で女性には 重くて持ち運びに苦労しましたが、この商品は本当に持ち易いのでニャンコにも飼い主にも負担が少ないです。 ただ・・リュックで使用するのは大柄の私でも幅がひろく担ぎにくいですね。リュックの部分を女性でも担げるよう 改良してほしいです。

I'm glad I purchased this carrier. I viewed many others before making my decision. This is well made and sturdy. There's a leash hook on the inside for those who want the added security of not having their pet jump out when the side that allows your pet to stick it's head out is unzipped. I used it to take my 10lb cat to the vet and it was so much easier than using a shoulder strap carrier. I think you can convert the straps to shoulder but I didn't try as that is not my preference. Even though your pet will always be able to see through the mesh on either side of the carrier, there is also a flap that you can roll up or leave down for your pet to view the outside world from the back of the carrier. One thing to note is that as long as your pet is not perched on one side of the carrier, it's comfortable. Once my cat got used to the carrier and settled in length-wise, it was less of a strain on my back. At the vet, I got compliments on this handy carrier. I only give it four stars because there are no pockets to put papers, treats, meds, etc. Otherwise, I'm pleased with it.
