Expandable Pet Carrier Backpack for Cats, Dogs and Small Animals, Portable Pet Travel Carrier, Super Ventilated Design, Airline Approved, Ideal for Traveling/Hiking/Camping

Absolutely love this backpack and so does my cat. I like to wear it backwards so I can open the little flap on the front and let my cat poke her head out and see and smell everything on our walks. She is able to lay completely down and sit completely up whenever she wants while I'm walking. The straps are easily adjustable while wearing for when I switch to wearing it like an actual backpack. The top flap is great when it rains to protect her you just roll it down, all the zippers are great, I don't really use the expandable back because I let her out to roam on her harness when we do stop but it's still nice to have the option.

Love this cat backpack (we had it two years), we use it as his carrier, makeshift hanging cat bed, and to carry him during outside adventures. Our cat is considerably big (he's 12 lbs but very tall and long, just athletic build), and he fits comfortably in this cat back. It has held up very nicely so far, has a supportive chest clip, honestly have not used the expandable part very much, and the window part looks scratchy is because we never removed the protective film on it. The cat backpack has a collar lead and clip in it that we used to clip to our cat’s harness if we have the screen flap unzipped and rolled back. Zipper quality is sturdy (our cat has been destructive before and has not destroyed this carrier), it has a lot of ventilation holes (probably not very warm, but relatively), is light (without a cat inside), and easy to put on and wear. It was worth the money!

The media could not be loaded. We have a new French Bulldog puppy and I thought this would be great for the car or electric bikes and during outings or vacations. He actually LOVES IT so we keep it in our family room for him to play and nap in… The quality is great and I highly recommend. (fyi… he’s in the backpack because it’s open and he likes it, it’s not a crate and he’s not trapped he just likes it.)

Great backpack for cats; spacious with breathable material! Also has comfortable straps.

There is a lot to like about this carrier. We read the reviews before purchasing and only bought (2) bags with 5 stars to compare and ultimately choose between. This is the one we kept. We have a 15lb chunky cat. We wanted a back pack style, so my daughter could move through the airport with a carryon bag and a cat easily when flying alone. There was plenty of space for him. He had enough room to be comfortable laying down when the bag was sitting upright. Even though there was less "floor space" than a typical over the shoulder soft carrier when the bag is upright, it was a smoother walk for him, since he road on her back rather than bumping along at her side & the large round (and low) mesh gave him plenty of view and air laying down. When sitting up, the bag had an amazing amount of space. It also has a mesh zipper section, so when he sits up, he still has plenty of view, air, & an exceptional amount of space. It has an additional "pop out" room that is all mesh. The designers of this bag really focused on kitty comfort, so as a result of the mesh windows (which provided great airflow & visual access) there weren't pockets, but my daughter actually used the "pop out" zipper section as a pocket and was able to take his treats, his meds, rubber gloves, an extra piddle pad, and handiwipes. We examined the seams. Although time will tell if it holds up, it seems to be well made. The padded shoulder straps were very comfortable. The final deciding factor was that this backpack had both the chest strap and the lower hip/waist strap. Our daughter said that it distributed the weight well on her body, so she didn't have to lean forward & also helped support the bag, so our hefty cat didn't end up sagging or the bag collapsing. It went on the plane and under the seat just fine laying down (which, when laid on its back has as much room as any over the shoulder bag for his comfort on the flight. He was so comfortable in his travel carrier, that he sat up and gave himself a bath while at the airport. Anyone with a cat knows that won't happen unless the cat feels comfortable and secure. (See picture attached)

It is nice, it's my first kitty backpack and think she will take to it fairly easily. My 12lb cat fits comfortably. My only note is that the belts are not for plus size people, I am 230 lbs and does not come close to fastening.

The media could not be loaded. We moved to a home where our cats have to be indoors only (coming from our farm where they were indoor/outdoor cats, and feral in their early days). We started with one backpack (grey), and then after our cats demonstrated that they liked going on walks this way, we bought a second backpack in blue. We put them in the backpack with haunches first, and they nestle down as we zip the flap. Our cats are 8 and 10 pounds, and they feel safe in these sturdy packs. When we get back inside the house, they climb out on their own. We don’t typically expand the backpack in the house for them to lounge in due to the size of our home. We prefer to store the backpacks in a closet. Our kitties give them a big paws up!
