Why it matters

The carrier measures 18 x 11 x 11 in, and the top expands by 3.5 in when you have room. Petskd sizes it for pets within about 15 x 8 x 10 in and up to 12 lb, and lists airlines such as Delta. A stainless steel and fiber-rod frame stops sagging, mesh covers five sides, and there are three openings. Two-year warranty.
