Cat Sling Shoulder Carrier Bag with Snap Flap, White or Black

This carrier is a soft sling bag that hangs from one shoulder, so your cat rides at your hip with its head free to look around. The body is made of cloth in plain white or black, and the patterned lining and trim give it a bag-like look instead of the usual pet-carrier look. A flap with a snap button closes over the front, and a wide strap goes over your shoulder.

It is meant for pets under 26 lb (12 kg). Before you buy, think about how your cat behaves in a sling: a calm cat that likes to curl up will do well, while a very active one may want a hard-sided carrier. We do not have interior measurements, so check that your pet can sit or lie down comfortably, since the bag is soft and its shape follows the animal.

The bag weighs 1.4 lb (650 g) before your pet goes in, and it folds flat for storage. It suits short trips, a stroll or a picnic, and the sling design leaves one arm free. Choose white for a clean, bright look or black if you would rather not see fur and dirt.

Brush loose hair from the fabric, spot clean with a damp cloth and let the bag dry before you store it.
