SportPet Designs Large Pop Open Kennel

We purchased this to transport our two cats (11lbs & 2lbs) from Western New York to Florida. We chose this design because it was so big and we thought the cats would do better if they were together. There was plenty of room for them, along with a small litter box.Problem - it is not very sturdy and our older cat was bent on not being caged. She was able to maneuver the zipper for the first escape, and then later actually ripped part of the unit for her second escape. That wasn't so bad, as she would settle elsewhere in the car (she doesn't like being contained!) but the kitten soon figured out how to get out, too, and then my poor husband was defeated. I was driving our other car and we had to stop and move the kitten to a hard carrier in my car, and just toss this carrier, as it had been torn and was not doing the job. My husband drove the rest of the way with the cat reclining in the back on top of all of our boxes & luggage, with occasional visits to his lap. I had the kitten in the hard carrier. Lesson learned!
