Customer Reviews
The carrier is larger than I expected (good thing)! It will be great for trips out with my cat named Bob! It will allow him to see everything around him.
This is just amazing my cats love it. We are on the road 100% of the time in our fifth wheel for work and I often take the cats on a walk I was hoping this would work for both of them at the same time however I really need to get another one this is just the answer I needed
My kitty cat has plenty of room to stretch out and enjoy the view from the window making her feel less confined. For me, the backpack design makes it easier to carry in comfort.
I feel so safe having my cats be able to be transported in this backpack! The materials are top notch and heavy duty!! I saw a review below where the front has potential to pop off, and it may happen with enough force or something, but I tightened the piece on and put lots of weight on it and it seemed fine so I am happy with it.
This backpack is worth every cent it costs. It’s well constructed, roomy, looks cool af and my tabby loves it. Easy to carry around too. Thnx Jackson for making something that I’m sure will last for many years to come.
