Review on ๐Ÿพ Petmate Ultra Vari Kennel: Premium Carrier for Small Pets up to 15 lbs in Bleached Linen by Debbie Rossi

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Solid box, the best of boxes and kennels

This is a very good box made from hard plastic and easy to assemble/disassemble. The top handle is also solid. The only complaint I have is that the small drawer didn't have air holes in the back (when it says it has 4-way ventilation). The airline was very insistent on four-sided vents, so I had to drill holes in them myself. I flew a Continental and they were fine with 4 quarter size holes. If you are considering using this for animal flights I suggest you contact your airline to see if three way venting would be suitable and if not how many holes and hole size you would need in order to to meet their requirements. If you are flying with an animal, make sure you have all the necessary documentation to ensure the airline entitles the animal to fly. Most airlines require at least a general medical certificate and if you are traveling abroad a quarantine period may be required. Ask the airline. It can also be a good idea to put a non-slip surface on the inside of the cage floor if you have a dog/cat so they don't slip too much (I found the inside of this cage a bit slippery). . ). Good Trip!
