5.0 out of 5 stars Great little cat carrier, January 14, 2007

This review is from: Sherpa Original Deluxe Small Cat and Dog Carrier, Black (Misc.)

I was worried this carrier might be a little small for my 8 lb. adult cat, but he is very comfortable in it. My vet said that most people err on the side of carriers that are too large, and that cats actually tend to like smaller spaces because they feel more secure in them. In any case, Truman is able to turn around, and he relaxes nicely when he's in the carrier.

It's not a struggle to get him in, and taking him out is a cinch too, since one of the panels unzips entirely to lie flush with the floor. There's a nice furry pad in there, and the mesh allows the animal to see out as it likes. A small zipped pocket can hold a brush and a ziploc of food or some favourite toys.

This review is from: Sherpa Original Deluxe Small Cat and Dog Carrier, Black (Misc.)

This carrier arrived on time, well packaged and as described. It is extremely well made, a good deal for its price and easy to carry as back back. One of my two cats who used to put up homeric fights to get in her old one, then wailed all the way to the vet, now goes in by herself and is most of the time silent. The other cat who is mellow appreciates it as well.
Recommend both carrier and Petco, for their products and customer care.

1.0 out of 5 stars I'd give it 0 if I could..., August 28, 2006

By

I must say, I was willing to pay this amount because I thought I was getting a better quality item. After a only a few weeks, this bag caved in and my puppy would no longer go into it. I tried several times and ways to fix it, but it would not stay up.
I contacted the company and they told me to "stuff it with wet towels and spray it heavily with starch..." are they kidding? Then I found a reference to this problem under their web site FAQ's. So, they are knowingly selling a defective item and expecting the customer to then fix it. They never responded to my second email... I could not return it because it had been used.

This is a company that does NOT stand behind it's products. I found a much less expensive one at target, and it works much better!

Do not waste the extra $ on this item.
