Bra kvalitet och lagom stor för min chihuahua

The carrier is very well made. We have first used it to bring our kittens home from the reader. One of them was so relaxed when I opened the carrier at home, that it took him a couple of moments to realise that he was in a different home. I have left it in the corner so they get accustomed to it, and they loved playing with it (so no hurt feelings!). Since then they have grown quite a bit so we got a second one!Also, they are super easy to clean!

Previously, I have owned a Sherpa carrier and have used it only when necessary for hurricane evacuation, etc. It is huge, and fit both pets I once had. The Sherpa is great if you have a larger pet and no real carry-ons. (I believe it's the largest carrier that is allowed on the major airlines; the dimensions are bigger than what is stated on their websites, but Sherpa is the only carrier that is mentioned as bigger yet an allowed exception.)I now have a kitten and I wanted something that would be discreet and fit with my rollerboard suitcase.The Atom is a perfect size for my kitten. She can sit or stretch out with no problem. Right now, she's only 2.5 pounds. To compare, I put my sister's 11 pound cat in the carrier. She fit snugly. Although she couldn't sit up, she was able to stretch out slightly and seemed comfortable. I think it would be great for flights 3 hours or less.When I received the carrier, I put it on the floor and placed some toys in it to get my kitty used to it. She wandered into it and was even found napping at one point.The Atom slipped easily onto the handle of my roll-aboard. In this position, I liked how my pet was raised nearer to my eye, which allowed me to be very aware of how she was doing.I purchased the black Atom, and it blended well with my other black luggage. The zippers seem sturdy and the bag feels well-constructed. There is a clip on either side of this bag which can be hooked onto a seatbelt. This is a great feature, in addition to the handle sleeve, for seamless transfers between car, luggage, and plane.Cons: Pockets are nice, but they close only with a small velcro tab. Things may easily fall out. The shoulder strap is nice, but there is no way to disconect it. For my purposes, I used the handle slide when walking through the terminal and I used the handle located on the top of the carrier to carry the bag. The shoulder strap only got in the way.I would definitely suggest this carrier to others who have a small pet.

I bought the Sleepypod Atom a while back, but am writing this review because it just passed the most important test. I used my Atom to fly my cat from Texas to California.I had no issues with the airline, or with security. In fact getting the cat out and back in when I walked through security was surprisingly easy.The carrier fit underneath the seat in front of my perfectly. I used the privacy screen on one side and then positioned the other side so she could look up at my throughout the flight.After I landed I had to carry her around in it for a while and the over the shoulder strap was perfect.The only thing I will caution people about is that this is a very small carrier. My cat is very small even though she's full grown. She fit very comfortably in this carrier and had enough room to lay down and to turn around. However, a bigger cat might easily be pretty cramped in it.Last great thing about this is that it stores flat very nicely!
