Color: XL carrier
I recently purchased the SportPet X-Large Hard-Sided Travel Cat Carrier, and I couldn't be happier with it. The carrier is extremely well-built, sturdy, and provides plenty of room for larger cats or multiple small pets. The hard-sided construction gives me peace of mind that my pet is safe and secure during travel. One of my favorite features is the patented wide side-opening door. It makes getting my cat in and out of the carrier much easier and significantly reduces the stress that usually comes with travel. The door design is much more convenient than traditional front-loading carriers. I also appreciate that the carrier is foldable, making it easy to store when not in use. Despite being lightweight and portable, it feels very durable and capable of handling pets up to 35 pounds. The ventilation is excellent, allowing plenty of airflow while keeping my pet comfortable. The dark gray and teal color combination looks modern and attractive, and the overall design is practical for trips to the veterinarian, long-distance travel, or emergency transportation. Overall, I highly recommend the SportPet X-Large Hard-Sided Travel Cat Carrier to anyone looking for a spacious, durable, and pet-friendly travel carrier. It has made traveling with my cat much easier and less stressful for both of us.

Very. Large. I can’t stress that enough ESPECIALLY if this carrier is to move across the country like it was for my Person and I. This temporary home was anxiously purchased for that 1500mile and three-day trek from the East Coast to the middle of the country for Murray, our 17.5lb American shorthair mix. He’s a CHONK. Solid cat through and through he’s knocked things off counters and pictures with faint constitutions from the walls. When the carrier arrived, despite understanding its collapsible nature, I did have a moment of “ah crap did I miscalculate?” No. No I did not. When opened and locked in position, it takes up roughly the body space of a 17gal packing tote and nearly the full height of my “person space” when the back seats of my Prius were folded flat for him to sit on. If I didnt already have an obstructed view, I would NOT assume his carrier would block my rear-view. I was able to pick up The Monster and set him in….a he stared at me. Murray is large and his past methods of travel were always cramped, too short in carrier length, or quite frankly his massive strength began shredding “comfy mesh carriers” within the first 8hr leg. My nervous couldn’t take that crap - so when he just SAT there in his carrier, wide open, with no fuss or yeowling or distress, we had a moment of pure staring at each other. Then… Uh, Injust uhm..yea like casually closed the door. He can see sitting, standing, lounging, out of all sides. And while his paws CAN fit through the slating, he was only able to “grab” fabric items nearby and/or “clack” at the sides of the carrier since it has more than one layer (due to the locking). It never gave. I don’t even see scratches where he tried - and for the first hour of the first leg, oh lawd he tried. Although a little clumsy of a carry (I’m 5’ nothing), it was VERY easy to get a grip on the carrier and take him with. It was a two-handed carry because he’s huge but also because the carrier allowed for more movement than some of the others - but I won’t sacrifice his comfort. Unlike his other travel experiences, in the hotel he did NOT come flying out of this carrier like it was on fire. He and the other cats in our clowder actually intermittently took turns lounging in it - and sometimes, TOGETHER they fit. Catnip is recommended for any pets traveling (chamomile or whichever kind does NOT make your kitty hyper!!!!) to rub or dump in the basin of the carrier - not much made it out of the tray-like depth anyway! Feliway was an easy application into the grooves of the slats and made for better ventilation in my car. He laid flat like a Roarscarch puddle and slept peacefully through each leg with no fussing or causing the other cats to fuss. Once we arrived, it became like a temporary kennel, a place familiar to house, so we left it open for him and his siblings to retreat to until they stabilized. Overall amazing purchase. I will be buying this method for Murray’s brother, Merray, in the smaller size since he is a sleeker cat and not quite as chonky. Reference measure for Murray: 17lbs, 14.6” from foot to crown of head. His middle is approximately 6” wide across the belly, and about 50/50 body huge and leggy huge, and this carrier accommodates both! AND after the big move he isn’t afraid of the carrier so now it doubles as a home kennel! Ref pic: folded/collapsed against a 40” insignia tv. And then fully expanded next to the same tv. For depth, the interior and vacuum pic - the interior “sitting space” is as wide as the Dirt Devil Powermax Rewind’s brush head so if you have this or similar, it’s this wide PLUS my size 6.5 foot for scale. (I didn’t have any bananas for scale, I’m so sorry Reddit!) Another reference is my smallest cats’ carrier INSIDE Murray’s’ and the only reason it won’t latch is simply because Murr’s is triangle and the XXS carrier is squared. The small traditional carrier INSIDE this one measures: 19.3L x 12.6W x 13.1D in inches. Last grateful notation: the SOUND of this carrier and the material it’s made of reduced stim stress among the entire clowder. If I can ever help it, I will bar the sound of metal grates or crates from my travel plans (less required by flying, etc). Gone was the accidental rattling. No more sudden CLANG CLANG CLACK while trying to load up multiple cats. The carrier made very little if ANY road noise and was tight-packed like a Tetris set for maximizing A/C from my cars center vents. While Inwould never stack things ON him, I was confident that if my art pictures resting atop the tvs in the veerrry back of the car were to shift for some reason, Murr would be protected by this carrier and without the terrible sound FX! It was easy to feed him his dry snacks and patience treats ( and another chamomile dose during some really loud engine breaking!) without having to open or breach the carriers’ lock sets. He could see me and chat me up for security without looking like a furred prisoner and I am very secure in observing how behaviorally chilled out my big lover boy has become about large travel trips. Very hotel friendly and, if the door and front are secured, left open (such as in the vacuum pic), you can insert ANOTHER tray and use it for a litter stop like we did within the hotel to keep mess down and repack speed for the mornings quicker. TIP: do not ever, EVER pour litter directly into ANY carrier meant for rest. Cats do not sleep where they defecate unless stressed or forced to, and they DEFINITELY do not eat near where defecation occurs. PLEASE use a high-sided pan (cheap from Walmart!) to fit inside and protect your kitties’ dignity and sensory needs for the long haul if you plan to be utilitarian!!! Kitty Pics: Murray has the Monroe Mole and a totally white muzzle. Merray, in the second picture, has no forehead blaze and the nip stuck on his nose like a true hemphead. (It’s chamomile, do not smoke weed around your cats, it WILL screw with their respiration system.) * they did not travel crated together, this photo is “familiarizing” them with the smell and presence of it as well as my Person and I communicating the intention to travel. A+ carrier. Did not break the bank. Collapses into a slightly thicker/bigger laptop case, and my cats aren’t traumatized by the experience. I will be a loyalist now to this carrier and its brand. Thank you.

I was looking for a carrier that would hold my two cats at the same time. I also had very little space to store the carrier when not in use. But mostly, I was hoping for something that limited the amount of anxiety and stress placed on my cats when they are put in the carrier. This carrier does all of these things. Pros: 1. It is quite roomy and my cats do not seem to be crammed or uncomfortable when inside together. For reference, they are each about 13lbs. 2. It is also easy to unfold and fold, while still feeling sturdy. It folds fairly flat, perhaps a couple of inches, and was simple to keep on a hook in my garage for quick access. 3. One of the best things about this carrier is the ability to take the cats in and out without a major struggle. Case in point, I recently took the cats in for their annual exam and for a consultation on a limp one cat was experiencing. I was able to take each cat in and out one at a time without anyone providing assistance. Additionally, the cat with the limp was taken in and out of the carrier 4 times during that visit, without any issue. 4. I get a lot of compliments on this carrier and veterinary staff in particular seem to appreciate its ease of use. Cons: 1. I bought the XL size. As expected, it is quite large. I need it to be this big, but it does make it a bit tricky to get in and out of my small car. Ultimately, this carrier is exactly what I was looking for and I would definitely buy it again.

My cat groomer suggested this for my Maine Coon. He is 18.5 pounds. My groomer is a mobile service and said many of her MC clients use this. I'm so happy with this carrier. The moment I opened it my cats went right in. It's easy for the cat to get in. I love how it folds down for storage and can be easily washed. If it had a shoulder strap I would have given 5 stars. Iy would be great if they added a strap.

Very fine x-large cat carrier! I have a smaller version that I have used for 2 years. It worked great, now my cat is larger and needs a larger carrier to go to the vet. The smaller one made her very uneasy and uncomfortable (I don't know if cats are claustrophobic). This carrier is very roomy so she can move around and better suited for her size. It is well built, with a vary wide side opening and is sturdy even though it is collapsible for more efficient storage. The assembly took about 2 minutes and seems to be a very safe carrier. I not big on the colors (turquoise/gray) but I purchased it based on my history with the previous carrier (same manufacturer). Great buy, I would purchase again!

I have a massive 2 year old cat. He's a healthy 17.5 pounds, with a long, large body. He's not fat, he's just HUGE. Putting him in his old carrier was like trying to make an accordion out of him. I always felt so bad when I had to squeeze him in there, and he has to be put away at night because he's destructive. (We're working on it.) Last night was the first time I put him in this carrier. He plopped right in, and he looked startled to be standing up in almost full height in the carrier. This morning, he didn't stretch out so enthusiastically like when he'd been cramped up in the old carrier. This afternoon, he curled up in the carrier all on his own. He loves it in there. I'm so thrilled. I'd gladly pay this amount again for such a great product. Assembling it was a breeze. I didn't even notice there was an instruction sheet at first, but putting it together was so intuitive that I didn't need it. It folds down flat and would easily fit in a closet or under a bed, but I'm going to be keeping his new favourite place to sleep available for him whenever he likes. Thank you!!

This product is a rarity in that it actually impressed me, both in design and execution, and met or exceeded all of its advertised features. Having been married to a vet tech for 15 years, I have a soft spot for fuzzy critters, especially cats. And too often find kitties abandoned, and living hard on the street. I always carry a big bag of treats in the car, and when I see a kitty out in the world that looks like it hasn't had a good meal in some time, I leave them a large pile of treats (figure, they could use the extra fat and calories in the treats, over regular feed). But lately, I've come across a few kitties that have come up to me and flatly asked for help. But I've had no way to safely transport them. The pivotal moment for me was when I saw a cat walking alongside the highway out in the middle of nowhere, just outside of town. I pulled over to see if it wanted some help but instead it took off into the brush. But it occurred to me, what if it agreed and followed me back into my vehicle? I had no safe way to transport it. Had I just let the fuzzy run around inside my SUV, there's no telling what could have happened. It might have freaked out once we started moving and reacted with violence or panic. It could have wanted to hide somewhere safe and might have picked under my feet by the pedals. Or it could have reacted with fear or car-sickness and gotten sick or urinated on my upolstry. Unlikely, but all possible scenarios. I decided I needed a better option. So I started looking for collapsible carriers and came across this one. I ordered the unit, and so far have been very happy with it. I've been able to transport three cats with it so far (separate incidents, not simultaneous), and it has worked beautifully each time. The staff at the pet hospitals and shelters have all commented on it. And I love that it folds flat when not in use, making it easy to keep in the back of my SUV full time. The latches all seem to be well designed and made. Nothing has failed me yet. It does take a moment to figure out how to use all the various buckles and snaps that hold it together, and it takes paying attention to make sure you deploy and collapse it correctly, but once you get the hang of it it takes no time to do either. I've only transported quite thin/small kitties in it, so no real weight yet. But it feels very solid and strong, so I'm not worried about the day coming when I have to transport a rather ..."rotund" kitty. So, all in all, I can say that this product impressed me, came through on all of its advertising promises, and I'm glad I bought it. I can whole-heartedly recommend this product.
