Why it matters

The backpack is 12.5 x 10.2 x 16.3 in for pets up to 18 lb. A structured frame keeps it from collapsing, reinforced zippers and an interior strap keep pets in, a thick sherpa bed cushions them, and mesh panels give airflow. Padded straps help you, and side-entry zippers on both sides help in tight spaces.
