Life with cats

Carriers & travel

Choosing and maintaining a carrier for the journeys you actually make.

A useful place to start.

Check the measurements

Compare the stated internal dimensions, opening and weight limits. Product photographs are not a measuring system.

Read the instructions

Check the maker’s guidance on assembly, closures, cleaning and securing the carrier. Keep replacement-part details where you can find them.

Plan for your journey

Write down the transport, carrying distance and storage space you need to accommodate. For welfare or distress concerns, use appropriate professional guidance.
