"This carrier is wonderful for my chinchilla and is so easy to clean. The only problem is during this cold winter months I have to make sure to have the carrier covered b/c there is no insulation to it."

Awesome and Safe!
Date: March 31, 2007
"My teddy bear hamster loved this a lot more then a smelly old shoe box that i used to carry her around in. I put some bedding and a mini igloo in this so she would feel at home and she felt so comfortable and payed no mind at all to the fact she was getting moved around and maybe bumped once or twice. Buy this!"

great
Date: February 23, 2007
"we use these in a facility that i vulunteer at and all our small animals love these,i think that the closeness helps them feel safe in a new enviroment or something. we have tried other carriers but none lasted as long as this one does and this is soo simple to use. we always find outselves buying new ones every time we get anew animal that will at some point need to be transported."

Date: January 27, 2007
"i absolutely love this product. my mice love it. it is the best investment that i have ever made. it is so easy to cleen and it does not tate much to figure every thing out about it. i have thought about using it as a cage incase i need to keep one of the mice out of the main cage. you can attatch a water botel to it. it is one of my favorite accessoryes. the handel and the top comes off wich is handy."

Lovin it
Date: November 24, 2006
"My guinea pig BARELY fits into this, but she LOVES it. When we get her into it, it's VERY hard to get her out...because she doesn't want to leave. It's very good quality, Very easy to get the top wire part of it off for easy cleaning.....and retrieving a reluctant piggie."

Small Animal Carrier
Date: September 26, 2006
"The carrier is a must have for any small bird owner. This makes trips to the vet very easy as you do NOT need to lug a large carrier for smaller species like lovebirds, tiels, parrotlets, parakeets etc.
My only complaint is that I would prefer an option of a removable grate, while it isn't a big deal and doesn't bother me enough not to use it, it would be nice for longer trips to keep the birds out of what normally falls through a grate.
Overall this carrier is easy to use, affordable and is meant for smaller birds so I don't have to worry about beaks/heads getting stuck. This is a concern with cat/dog carriers that often have to large of air holes for small birds.
Really a great buy, I use mine often and it has held up great. Only suggestion for improvement is either a grate or the wet/dry dock type removable substrate.
:-)"

might be okay for doscile animals
Date: August 26, 2006
"i got this for my hamster, for the occasional short term use... he hated it, he is however very resistent to any kind of change from the cage set up i gave him when i first got him, so once he realised he wasnt able to get out he freaked and peed. it was pretty strong though, and good material... but i had to get rid of it because it upset him so much, he is happier being transported while in his ball"
