A cat carrier that is both functional and stylish, the SturdiTote Pet Carrier can give your pet a snug, cozy ride without causing you the usual frustration associated with pet carriers.

The SturdiTote Pet Carrier’s design lends itself to use with cats and other small animals. In addition to the front-loading panel, the SturdiTote also offers a top-loading option – a definite plus for pets who simply hate going in and out of carriers. The SturdiTote also features a core base, which allows the carrier to remain stable when placed down – unlike other collapsible, soft-sided pet carriers which have a greater tendency to tip or wobble when on the ground.

For your pet’s added comfort, the SturdiTote comes with its own fleece pad. Owners may want to supplement this with a more familiar blanket or towel as pets become used to the carrier, but once your pet grows accustomed to the interior, the fleece pad is suitably comfortable to keep your pet happy in transit – as our tester cat agreed on a tester run, nestling happily into its warmth.

Both the fleece pad and the SturdiTote body itself are machine-washable, a bonus if your pet is prone to shedding or accidents when traveling. And owners will also appreciate the bright, sporty exterior of the SturdiTote, which is available in a range of colors from sleek black to eye-catching electric blue.

For longer treks with your pet, the SturdiTote adapts well to car trips with its seatbelt safety strap. The soft-sided but secure construction is also designed with in-cabin plane trips in mind.

Simply put, for a snazzy but secure carrier that keeps pets comfortable, the SturdiTote Pet Carrier is a great choice.

Pros: Design is comfortable for pets; machine-washable.

Cons: None.
