    • Pretty great for a large cat if you don't require a top door.
Size: 24.0"L x 16.7"W x 14.5"H Pattern Name: Kennel Only
I have an 11 pound cat that is very long, like not fat just big. This carrier is a perfect size for him. I bought a cheap 24" L x 18" W x 11.2" MidWest Bolster Pet Bed and it fits nicely and he seems to feel comfortable on it. He urinated in the carrier once and the pet bed absorded all the pee, and was very easy to wash after, just FYI... Anyway, he did seem very comfortable in the carrier and even went in there to sleep a few times after the three trips he's taken it it (once the bed was washed) so he must find it cozy in there. Some other reviewers have complained about the build quality or lightness of the plastic of this particular size when compared to the bigger ones but I think it's well made (and have used other carriers of the same size that I have felt I needed to hold from the bottom because they felt flimsy). If it were any heavier, it would be impossible to carry for more than a few steps (in the case of weaker people). It has both a clip-on top but also bolts and I appreciate that it has both. Some people opt to just use the clips but I would be worried the top would come off (a lot of the carriers with a top door only have clips or else the top door is where the handle is placed and I have noticed a lot of review of those other carriers mention that the bottom dropped or door opened rendering handle useless while the animal was in transit!). Consequently, I prefer a carrier for my cat without a top door. I find I have little if no trouble getting my cat in a carrier (I just place the carrier with the door at the top and lower my cat in quickly and even if he protests, he doesn't have time to refuse). Anyway, the thing seems sturdy to me and I guess because it's made for a dog, it also has a little more height so my tall cat can adjust more easily. It was also pretty easy to put together, only took five minutes or so... ... show more

    • Good kennel, just check your door size width before putting it together in a different room. :)
Size: 36.0"L x 25.0"W x 27.0"H Pattern Name: Kennel Only
Typical kennel. Easy to put together and hopefully will work well with our upcoming trip in the RV. My only complaint is with me.... make sure you put it together where you plan to keep it. I had a heck of a time fighting to get it in the camper without having to take it fully apart. I did it, but may have taken as much time as if I had of taken apart. By that point it was me being stubborn. Size wise, our pup is 43lbs and this is for 50lb starting weight. I think it may be a little tighter quarters then I would like for my dog if he was 60-70lbs. So for us, it is perfect size. ... show more

The Petmate Vari Dog Kennel has become an indispensable part of our pet-loving family's life. Whether we're hitting the road for a family trip or simply ensuring our furry companions have their personal space at home, this kennel has proven its worth in more ways than one. **Safe and Spacious:** One of the remarkable features of this kennel is its roomy interior. Our recent foster, a 70lb pitbull, had an absolute blast in there! It's the perfect space for medium to large dogs, ensuring they stay secure and comfortable during car rides. **Cruising in Comfort:** Speaking of car rides, this kennel fits like a charm in our crossover. It's as if it was tailor-made for our vehicle. This snug fit not only keeps our pups safe but also adds a layer of convenience during our journeys. **Airline-Friendly Design:** What truly sets the Petmate Vari Dog Kennel apart is its airline-friendly design. It meets most airline cargo specifications, making it an excellent choice for pet parents who travel by air. Our pets breathe comfortably through the ventilation on all four sides, and we travel with peace of mind knowing they're secure. **Eco-Friendly and Easy to Clean:** We're also impressed by Petmate's commitment to eco-friendly materials. This kennel is made from certified recycled material, aligning with our values for sustainable pet products. Cleaning is a breeze thanks to the wipeable plastic shell and the smart stay-dry moat that keeps wet accidents contained. **No-Fuss Assembly:** Assembly is a cinch, and no tools are required. We appreciate how quickly we can set up or disassemble the kennel, making it hassle-free for busy pet parents. In conclusion, the Petmate Vari Dog Kennel is a reliable, safe, and comfortable space for our furry companions, whether we're on the road or at home. It's not just a kennel; it's peace of mind. We trust Petmate's commitment to quality and eco-friendliness, and this kennel has truly changed the way we travel with our pets.

I purchased this Petmate kennel for my two kitties. I got the medium size and it is good size. Much larger than needed, but I’m pleased. The kennel was easy to assemble. It’s great quality and very sturdy. I recommend Petmate kennel products.

    • Good, lightweight kennel.
Size: 36.0"L x 25.0"W x 27.0"H Pattern Name: Kennel Only
Very sturdy, easy to assemble and break down as needed. It's lightweight but gives my 60 lb dog plenty of space for him and his blankets and toys. We had a metal kennel as well, and this one is so much more convenient and offers more security for my dog.
