Hard Sided Pet Travel Carrier, Airline Style

A hard-sided travel crate with a metal grate door and vents on the sides, for car trips and vet visits. The solid shell keeps its shape when lifted and gives a nervous pet a closed-in space, while the front grate lets air through and lets the pet see out.

What you get

• Rigid plastic shell that holds its shape when carried
• Metal grate door at the front plus side ventilation slots
• Moulded carry handle on top
• Approximate outer size 50 x 32 x 31.5 cm / 19.7 x 12.6 x 12.4 in
• Five colour options, including translucent shells

Sizing

Measure your pet standing and add a few centimetres: it needs to stand without crouching and turn around without its shoulders jamming. The 50 cm outer length gives roughly 46 cm inside once the door moulding is counted, so a large cat or a small dog is at the top of what this crate fits.

In the car

For vehicle travel, keep the crate in a stable position away from the front-seat airbag zone and follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use. Do not treat a generic handle, shell, or strap as evidence of crash protection. Translucent shells look better and hide less, but they scratch; if the crate lives in a car, the solid colours stay presentable longer.

Care

Wipe inside and out with a damp cloth. Check the door latch and the hinge pins before each trip.
