GAPZER Small Dog Carrier Yorkshire Puppy Softshell Chihuahua Transport Cage

Great product! I only use it to take my cat to the vet so ultimate durability might vary with level of use, but it's big enough for my 13 lb orange tabby and easy to carry on my shoulder. Plus, she can kind of see out, so I was able to interact with her while we were waiting at the vet. I purchased a second time due to having a foster cat for a few months. There are several points of entry and exit. My cat doesn't like getting into a carrier regardless, but this is much easier to get her into vs. a more traditional carrier. Plus you can store it in a smaller space due to its ability to fold.

This carrier is perfect for my cat. She loves it. I leave it open for her and she uses it to nap in. It's lightweight but very sturdy. The size is perfect. My cat has enough room to move around and get comfortable. We're very happy with this carrier. Highly recommended.

Very high quality! Product is sturdy, zippers are very rigid and the carrier is big enough for a 12-pound cat to not only lay within but have room to get comfortable in, as well. Easy to pop open and carry-strap makes for easy transportation by hand or shoulder.

This pet carrier is really pretty perfect! It is well made and there is almost nothing not to like about it. The zippers were a bit stubborn at first but with some manipulation of the edges where each side was attached to the fabric it aligned and worked fairly well. I loved the turquoise color and the roll-down privacy blinds-a nice feature for a skittish pet. The bottom is a hard composite material with a zippered washable cover. Additional padding would be a suggestion for the pet parent. The only problem we had was that it was too small for the puppy I adopted! I sort of forgot how big she was between meeting her and actually bringing her home! This carrier was intended to securely hold her during rides to the vet, etc. Luckily, I had someone to hold her for the ride home. Back to looking for something larger!

So, as with everything, the success of this carrier will probably depend on your animal's size and personality, but here's my experience, FWIW. Negative #1: The top opening ins TINY. My cat is BIG. He's on a diet but he's a good 17.5lbs on a good day, and got up to 19 when he was massively constipated (hence needing to get in a carrier to go to the vet). While this carrier is comfortably large for him overall, the TOP OPENING is useless to me. It's not like the whole top zips open on 3 sides. It's just a small window, smaller than a sheet of paper. So if you have a larger animal, especially if it is not calm, it is not easy to get it in through the top. My cat is terrified of small spaces so he not only wants to fight going into the carrier, he has to be wrapped in a blanket first, and there's no way to stuff an 18lb cat wrapped in a throw blanket through that top opening. I did get him in thought the side (which zips fully...gee!), but that means standing the carrier on its end and then flipping him down once it's zipped which is just that much tougher to manage when the cat is trying to go for your jugular. And while the side opening is larger than the top opening, it's still not as large as a fully unzipped top that some other carriers have...so I ended up getting one like that, which works much better for us. Negative #2: The escape-proof zippers ARE escape-proof. They're also husband-proof and vet-tech proof. Seriously, the difficulty humans have zipping and unzipping this carrier is comical. My husband just gets frustrated and says "YOU unzip it"...the vet techs think the first one they start with is broken, so they try to use a different opening, and usually by then you can explain "They're that way on purpose so he can't escape, just go slowly..." To my Negative #1 above, my cat is NOT calm about getting in the carrier, so having a zipper stick during the 6 milliseconds I have to zip it up is not ideal. However, if you have a calm animal that willingly walks into the carrier and vet techs familiar with escape-proof zippers, you may like this feature. Positives: It IS large and roomy, it can easily hold a 20lb constipated cat and the throw blanket he was wrapped in. It is well constructed. The privacy panels are nice. The escape-proof zippers are accurately advertised. It folds flat for storage. It was inexpensive and a good value for the money. So if you have a small animal, or at least a calm larger animal that doesn't fight the carrier, it could be great. It did not solve my particular issue of trying to wrangle a death-rolling crocodile of a cat into a carrier as well as one with a full zip-open top.

We got two of these for our senior cats (each about 8 pounds) to replace some carriers we really liked but couldn't seem to get very clean after the last trip... heading to the vet just scares everything right out of these babies. So far, I like them, and they've gotten more use than we wanted after some unexpected emergency vet trips. One of our little ones even wants to sleep in hers, so they must be pretty comfortable. I really like that these have the privacy covers on the sides. One of ours is definitely a cave cat, she wants to be in dark cozy places all the time, so it's nice to have the option of windows or no windows. Having multiple points of entry is nice too - makes the in and out process easier for both of them, regardless of what kind of mood they're in at the moment. :) I was worried they might be too small, because the ones we found at local pet stores seemed extremely cramped, but the sizing seems perfect. With the doors all zipped up, they're very sturdy, but when you unzip, they can fold flat for storage, which is a nice design feature. I'd definitely recommend these carriers for folks with medium sized cats, and having different colors (one for each cat) is actually super helpful - our previous carriers were just black and basically the same design, so we didn't know which one belonged to which cat. It didn't matter too terribly much, but I'm sure they prefer to have their own spaces with their own smells and the color coding makes that easier.

I love how easy it is to carry with my cat in it and my cat seems to have claim it has her new home 😂. Only downside was she tore a hole in one of the door hatches but that should be expected lol.

Perfect little carrier for my pup. The zippers are a little bit difficult to zip, but that could be due to my fractured elbow. Other than that this is a great little carrier. It’s perfect in the front seat of my car or floorboard plenty of airflow, which I love.!

my cat is about 13-14lbs and quite long, I wanted to find a carrier that he wouldn’t be so cramped in. this fit the bill perfectly and after leaving it out he’s immediately started using it on his own to nap or have a rest! I haven’t taken him out in it yet but I believe he’ll be much more comfortable during our next vet visit or fire alarm!

It was good to carry my cat to the annual vet.

Lightweight. Our cat likes to sleep in it.

First time out in it. The kitten bit a hole in the mesh.
