I have 1 & was buying a 2nd (because our 2 kitties are growing!). I measured 1 we had & ordered the 1 with dimensions closest to 1st 1. It seems to be a lot smaller than i expected.

I bought this kennel two months ago for my kitten. She is a maine coon so I got the small for her size. I only used it twice… the first time was to take her home and the second was to take her to the groomers…. After I picked my kitten from the groomers, I walked 5 blocks before I would get on the car… during those 5 blocks, when I was walking, I was holding the handle that’s on top of the kennel… I want to specify that this kennel has 2 metal doors, one on the side and the other on top but everything else is plastic. I believed this kennel was sturdy so i did not mind the plastic or price…. Then, the plastic holding the top of the metal door broke and the kennel fell to the floor with my cat in it and all I had was the metal door on my hand… in seconds, my poor kitty ran to hide under a car or worse ran to cross the streets… I ran after her and i don't know how but i jumped and I was able to grab her from the back, and at the same time she bit me… but when I hold her, she calmed down… I calmed myself too and people around started helping me with the kennel and the door so i put the door back to its place even though one side was broken and I had to hold the kennel like a package so i could finally get to the car… my cat could have died if she crossed the street and I actually ended up with my knee bleeding and I had to visit the clinic for antibiotics because of her biting my finger.. my kitten is about five to seven pounds and she fits well in this kennel .. maybe hold the kennel with both hands and get rid of the handle so this incident doesnt happen

The size and shape is awesome, its a little taller, wider and a smig shorter than the usual. perfect for my large cat and fits in my cars front seat nicely (fits in the seat way better than the longer crates) . The top opening size is a dream, its a lot easier to put my cat in, relatively speaking. The build quality is it's biggest concern, especially at the price point. The shell itself is plenty strong/sturdy. The body latches are 100% plastic, and the hinge points are flimsy plastic, AS IS, I would, in NO WAY, trust its integrity from a decent impact in a fall with a pet inside. With that said, FORTUNATELY the manufacturer put holes for zip ties in all the necessary attachment/hinge points :-). It is very east to place zip ties where needed (each corner even has a hole for a small long bolt). I zip tied the top door hinge, but not the latch. Using a bungie around the body as a back up safety for the top door is probably a good idea. I don't plan on using the front door so it will stayed zip tied. If your ok with storing this assembled, its a great solution, not so much if your going to reassemble on a regular basis because of the plastic attachment points.

I sent these to a friend that uses them for transporting the feral cats to the vets. She only uses this brand...

Bought this in person yesterday and my 15 lb cat loves it. He feels much safer in a hard crate like this and he actually sleeps in it throughout the night. Hopefully it’s as sturdy as it seems when his vet appointment comes around

I had purchased an XS size carrier for my cat earlier in the year but recently purchased a S sized carrier. I had some trouble assembling it so I took it to Petco where the wonderful staff assisted me. I like that the carrier has top and front loading doors. My only concern is that the handle on the item I recently purchased doesn't appear to be secure, so I'm afraid it will drop off while I'm carrying my cat inside.

I bought one of these recently because I had a vet appointment for my two boys. One of my carriers had broken, and this carrier was wonderful. Is about the same size as the old one on the outside but shaped differently to allow the inside to be roomier for my slightly larger than average cats. So I am buying another so they can both enjoy the trip to the vet!

I just brought this home and tried to assemble. Much like another commenter, the instructions were little help. Once 'together' the clasps won't stay clasped. They keep opening back up. The handle is a joke. I tried to pick it up without anything inside and it fell off and the carrier fell on my foot. The size of the carrier is nice, but wouldn't want to 'carry' it anywhere. Might be nice for a stay at home kennel, but the clasps might frighten your pet when they unexpectedly open. Will be taking this back tomorrow.
