Highlighted Reviews
"Good size for our 10 pound pup. But of course he's fussy and didn't like it so we gave it to a friend who has a 5 pound Yorkie and he loves it."
"This item does not close. No zipper or drawstring. I bought it as a more comforting transport option for vet visits. Totally useless for that purpose. My cat could easily jump out of it as it doesnβt close. Very disappointed in this item."

If you're looking for a comfortable and easy-to-use carrier for small pets and don't need a secure closing mechanism, this could be a good option. However, if safety and security are paramount, especially for vet visits, you might want to consider other alternatives.
