Choosing the Right Type of Carrier

There are essentially three types to choose from:

  • cardboard.
  • soft.
  • hard.

Cardboard Carrier:

A cardboard cat carrier is usually fine for a healthy cat if you plan on keeping it indoors and don’t plan to travel much. However, keep in mind some cats like to chew through cardboard and may escape.

Soft Carrier:

Soft pet carriers are generally made of a firm but flexible material. They will last longer than cardboard carriers and if you plan to travel any distance with your cat, a soft cat carrier may be a better option than a cardboard. Depending on the flexibility of the material, you may also be able to collapse the soft carrier to save space while it’s not in use.

Hard Carrier:

Although a soft carrier is convenient as it can collapse to save space while not in use, if you have enough storage space in your home a hard carrier is a better option in terms of safety. It’s sturdier and will last much longer. Not to mention, much easier to clean should your pet have an accident during transport.

*** Remember, you should keep this essential cat supply in an easily accessible place in case of an emergency.  ***

In the end, whichever type you choose should depend on how often you’re going to use it, and of course, your own and even your feline’s preferences.

    I love the look of these carriers and it sounds like they’ve thought of everything when it comes to features!

    Thans for the detailed review,i really like these carriers much better than the metal one i’m using right now!

  4. Judy Cowan says:

    They duffel looks nice but too closed in for our girls, they need to be able to see out all sides or they get car sick. We have metal collapsible cages that we use.

    I have gone through so many cat carriers over the years and haven’t found anything that works. This is literally the best one I’ve seen. I have 8 beautiful rescues of all different sizes and it’s hard finding something comfortable that would work for all of them. Thank you so much for sharing this. I’m definitely looking into it.

    These are the perfect carry on for pets when travelling! I love them.

    I think these soft sided carriers are much less traumatic for the cats when they have to go to the vet. I currently have a smallish hard sided carrier that is much too small for my big boned Maine Coon.
