If you’re wanting an easy to handle cat carrier, it’s very nice. I would buy it again if I needed two

Got this for my mother so she could take her cats and bunnies to the vet.Shes an animal lover and has 3 cats and 3 bunnies so I wanted her to have an easy way of transporting the animals.Its working great!

I carry a small dog with me much of the time, in a carrier with a should strap, because she has a knee problem.Most carriers have a metal or plastic strut to form their shape. This gives them a nice solid shape. The problem is that this rigid rod, under the pressure of the weight of the animal, the pressure against my body, and the strain of being repeatedly lifted by the strap, soon breaks, bens, or pokes through the fabric to pose a hazard. Six months is typical, one year is a long time to last. I have tried seen or eight carefully selected different styles and designs of bag.That's where this bag comes in. I was looking for one like it for a while. It has not rigid components. That removes the failure point of every other bag I have used. The other failure point is the zipper, and this bag has robust zippers- a critical thing to look for in a bag.I'm not sure how the bag holds its shape. It does deform easily, but the weight of the animal and the support of the strap cause the bag to stay expanded into a rectangle. Sometimes it gets dented in a bit and I pull on the fabric to give the maximum interior volume. I pay attention to not collapsing the bag with pressure on it. It's a minor issue a small, unimportant inconvenience in exchange for the miracle of a bag that holds it shape with no rigid structural elements that break. It's also a plus. The bag will change shape to fit in any space, with or without a dog in it. (Without a dog in it, it can be stuffed into a smaller space than with a dog.)It has plenty of clear plastic windows. If my dog were writing this review, that would be her main happiness with it. She loves looking out the windows and prefers it to all her other bags for this reason, even though it is a bit smaller. She is a 7.5 pound Chihuahua. She is picky and will refuse to go in a bag that she is not comfortable in, but I wouldn't use this bag for a much bigger animal. If they had a slightly bigger model I would get that. But the dog is happy with it, and prefers it to much larger carriers.It has zippered doors on each side and the whole top is also a big door, but I never use it The dog is always very eager to go in the bag, since it means an adventure. She tries to push her way in even before I have fully opened the zipper. She is, though, hesitant to leave the bag away from home. If it is chilly or noisy, she won't come out. That's the best testimonial for this bag.One shortcoming is a lack of pockets. There is one tiny mesh pocket ton top. It's nice to have storage in the bag, but I suppose the magical tensions based structure of the bag isn't compatible with storage compartments. I put the stuff- jackets, leash, treats, - in another bag that also has my stuff i n it. It's not a big deal. The plus is that without rigid metal rods, without stuffed storage pockets, the bag is extremely light.In spite of the windows, the black bag also conceals the dog from casual view. People don't know I am carrying a dog which sometimes is good. It's not obviously a dog carrier. rather than a shoulder bag.I've been using it for three months now, three or four days a week, and it looks like new. No issues. No broken zippers, the bane of carriers No unravelling seams. No broken should strap clips. No ripped mesh. And no, no, no bent or poke-your-eye-out rigid supports.

This carrier is brightly hued, lightweight, easy to put together and take apart, and well made with durable materials.

good concept but too flimsy. The sides squish down and struggle to support the top. Would expect better quality for the price.
