#catcarrier

Cat bubble backpacks are more than just a cute accessory. They make traveling with your cat easier and more comfortable, whether it is a trip to the vet or an outdoor adventure. 

I never thought I’d have opinions about a cat carrier but here we are.

I’ve always treated carriers as that thing you shove in the closet and pretend doesn’t exist until it’s vet day. Then suddenly it comes out and your cat teleports under the bed like they sensed it three rooms away.

Mine was getting kind of sad though. A little floppy, a little too easy to bend when I picked it up. It did the job, but it never felt great.

So I started looking around and ended up trying the Tuft and Paw Porto. At first I was honestly just drawn to how it looked. It doesn’t scream plastic pet prison. It looks more like an actual bag you wouldn’t be embarrassed to carry.

What made the difference for me was how it opens. You’re not limited to one tiny front door. The top opens up wide and the side opens too, so you can kind of adjust depending on your cat’s mood that day. Lowering them in from the top has been way less of a struggle than the awkward sideways push.

It’s technically soft sided, but once it’s zipped up it holds its shape. It doesn’t sag or fold in on itself when you lift it. That alone made me feel better carrying it.

The unexpected part is that it unzips into a flat bed. I left it out in the living room just to see if my cat would ignore it. She didn’t. After a couple days she started going inside on her own. That has never happened with any carrier I’ve owned. I’m not saying she loves it, but it’s not an automatic red flag object anymore.

It’s not huge, so if you’ve got a really big cat you’d want to check the measurements. And yes, it’s pricier than your standard carrier. That was my main hesitation.

If anyone wants a more detailed breakdown of specs and travel stuff, this is the review I read before trying it https://petparentadvisor.org/tuft-paw-porto-cat-carrier-review/

I’m still seeing how it holds up long term, but so far it feels more thoughtfully made than the random ones I’ve bought in the past.

Do cats actually enjoy those backpack carriers?

Anyone else tried those cat carrier backpacks? I was reading a review earlier and was honestly surprised that their cat Milo actually fell asleep inside the backpack the first day it arrived, and later went on his first hike without any drama. I always assumed cats would panic being zipped in, but apparently the mesh windows and padded base made him feel safe enough to just chill and enjoy the ride.
