Optimized Petmate Kennel Cab Soft-Sided Pet Carrier Review

I needed an extra padded carry case to transport 2 cats to the vet at the same time comfortably for her and me. I bought this carry model from another location in September 2012 and it's still in decent condition so I expected a new one of the same quality to be the same. But the build quality has dropped significantly. The new one has NO logo label and NO ID card slot on the top, although the product photos still show it has both. The frame bars on the new one won't hold up, causing the top to

I have had Petmate large carriers for my cats for over 10 years. They've worn out like irons and they're still going.

She has to go in from time to time so they can check her blood sugar and they don't even have to take her out of the stretcher, they just open the lid and it's easier to draw blood that way as she can't…

This is my second one. I had the first one for six years with no problems. However, after a recent trip to Florida, I sprayed it with Lysol and tossed it aside. When I used it again six weeks later, I found that the moisture and Lysol had caused mold to form on the underside. So I bought another one. My dog is a six pound Rat Terrier mix.
