THE FULL DETAIL
Everything worth knowing
Full specification
A hard-shell cat backpack with a clear dome, so your cat can see out and you have both hands free.
Most carriers are a soft bag your cat cannot see out of. A rigid shell holds its shape under a nervous cat, and the bubble window means they can watch what is happening rather than sitting in the dark.
A better ride than a shoulder bag
Being shut in a dark bag that swings and jolts is unpleasant for most cats. A transparent dome gives them a view out, which many cats settle to better than a closed bag, and a rigid shell stops the sides pressing in on them when you walk.
Carrying it on your back rather than swinging from one hand also takes out most of the motion, and leaves your hands free for a door, a lead, or a train ticket.
Built to hold its shape
The shell is hard-structured, so a cat leaning on one side does not collapse it, and it stands up on the floor by itself while your cat walks in. That matters at the vet, where a soft bag on a hard bench is the thing cats scramble out of.
Breathable mesh panels run down the sides so air moves through the whole shell rather than only at the dome, and the zips close securely with no gap for a determined paw.
Padded where it sits on you
Dual shoulder straps are padded and adjustable, which is the difference between carrying five kilos comfortably and carrying it for ten minutes. The load sits centred on your back rather than pulling on one shoulder.
It comes as a four-piece set with separate compartments for the things you would otherwise carry in a second bag: paperwork, treats, a folded towel, a travel bowl.

Worth knowing before you buy
- This suits cats up to roughly 5 to 6kg. A large or long-bodied cat will not have room to turn round, and should travel in a bigger carrier.
- It is for short journeys: a vet visit, a car transfer, a walk. It is not somewhere a cat should spend hours.
- The dome can mist up in cold or humid weather. Keep the mesh panels clear rather than covering them.
- We do not claim airline approval. Cabin rules vary by carrier and most airlines require a soft carrier with specific dimensions, so check with your airline before booking.
- Almost no cat likes a backpack on the first attempt. Leave it open on the floor at home for a week with a treat inside before you try to travel in it.
- Some cats simply will not tolerate a backpack, and a traditional side-opening carrier is the better answer for them.
- Orders are dispatched within 7 to 10 working days. See our shipping policy for the full detail.
