Very compact and our cat has been using it as a napping spot
This is a really small carrier that can fit in compact spaces while holding a 9lb cat. I was able to fit the carrier both on the floor under my sons car seat and between a booster and car seat. My 6-year-old is able to loop his arm through the handle (not the carrier strap!) and carry his pet around.
Only the front entrance has a locking dual zipper. The top opening has a dual zipper but it doesnt lock and the tabs dont have openings on the toggles so you cant zip-tie them closed. The zipper on the wider side is a single toggle. Our little cat didnt like the carrier when riding sideways in the car but he was kept contained during the 30-minute ride. Im not sure if it would have held him on a longer trip or if this would hold a truly determined cat so I am not comfortable giving this a full five stars.
The experience didnt sour our cat on the carrier though! I didnt get around to putting the carrier away when we got home and over the next few days, I would often find him napping in it; enjoying the small fuzzy liner bed, and being able to keep an eye on everything while being partially hidden from view.
