Review on Necoichi Portable Ultra Light Carrier by Sean Maples

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great product

The only carrier I have ever used that is this effective. My cats usually go crazy when they are in a carrier, they howl, scratch and all that. They are always calm in it. I recently took my two small cats to the vet in this carrier (handled well but they are small cats so can't tell if it will hold heavier cats) and they have been calm the whole time. They entered easily, I closed them and carried them out. They were nervous of course, but the good visibility (the whole grille) and good airflow didn't make them feel trapped, just very interested in everything that was going on. they stuck their heads out from behind the mesh trying to peek out and when I held everything in the vet's office on my lap they could sniff my hands through and feel my knees underneath (since it's not difficult). cartridge case) and I could tell they were less afraid because of my close contact and familiar smell. The problem with heavier, stronger crates is that it's just one big barrier between cats and everyone you know. I also made sure it was a safe place for her. When I first got the carrier, I left them on the floor with the flap open on a handy Velcro strap so they could get used to their smell and shape. They love to sleep in it and play around/in it. I put treats in there too. When it finally came time to use it it was easy to get them in and even after we got back from the vet I left it in their play area so they could continue to see that it's just a thing and not just with it associated with scary trips to the vet. Overall a great product, especially for this low price!
