Oxford Cloth Carrier Backpack

A carrier backpack in stiffened Oxford cloth, with mesh panels on three sides and a wide top opening.

What separates it from a plain bag

• Holds its shape: the walls don't collapse onto your pet as you walk.
• Ventilation on three sides — the critical point: an animal sealed in without airflow overheats fast.
• Internal safety clip for the harness, so they can't bolt when you open it.
• Side pockets for a water bottle and waste bags.

Getting them used to it

Leave the carrier open at home for several days with a treat inside. Then do one block before attempting a real trip. A cat forced in on day one will refuse it for good.

Never leave your pet zipped in unattended, or in a parked car.
