Customer Reviews
Both me and my 2 cats are very happy with the backpack. Comfortable to wear and comfortable to travel in.
I take my cats out in it 3-4 times a week and they see it as a safe spot when we run into a dog or when it starts to rain.
I love the details of the backpack like being able to lock the zippers so my cats won't be able to open them. The side pockets are big enough to carry snacks and a water bottle. The mesh is sturdy without making it impossible to look out. You can see that the backpack has been developed by a catowner. Great quality of material and design!
Customer support is very good at responding fast and sharing information and/solutions.
I haven’t used my backpack yet because, although it came in an airtight, plastic bag, the item had a musty smell. I’ve tried all their suggestions as well as let it out in the wind and sun for over 2 weeks and the odor didn’t go away!
I can see it’s study and very practical to be able to carry my cat around with me while traveling but not while it has that smell.
Pretty good! Arrived quickly and the kitten loves it!!!
Comfortable and cat seems to enjoy it!
The backpack is excellent!!! Our cat really likes it.
