Charlie in the soft sided Petmate Kennel
When we got the big shipment of all the Petmate goodies, the Petmate Plush Soft Sided Kennel Cab Large Taupe, was one of the many products included.
We received the large version of this cat pet carrier, which measures 20″ x 11.5″ x 12″.
I love that this carrier collapses, so that it is easy for storage. This feature would have been great as well for picking up Charlie because I could have stowed it in my luggage and then when I picked him up in North Carolina, then I could have taken it out of my bag.

Some other features/benefits of this travel pet carrier:
- great for travel to and from the vet or anywhere else
- great for in-cabin airline travel (meets most requirements – be sure to check with your specific airline)
- plush bed on the bottom (comes standard)
- 2-doors allow for top and front loading and unloading
- mesh walls allow for air flow
- very easy to carry and not awkward!
- includes a shoulder strap
- there’s a rear pocket where you can stuff your pet’s essentials
Charlie also liked the fact that there was a lot of mesh, so that he could see everything.

A reader asked me about the going rate for these Kennels.
You can find prices here: http://www.google.com/products/catalog?rlz=1T4DMUS_enUS228US228&q=petmate+soft+sided+kennel&um=1&ie=UTF-8&cid=13507041225310513827&sa=X&ei=12TBTZf7EJK0sAPpruDgBw&ved=0CFsQ8wIwAg#
Looks like Discount Pet Products has it for the cheapest at $29.25. Of course, you will want to check on shipping rates as that always varies.
Thanks,
