Keep reading to learn more about whether or not your kitty will like the Cozy Comfort Carrier.
What is the Most Comfortable Cat Carrier?
Many people who ask us whether their pet will “like” our cat pouch carrier with its heads-out design forget to ask themselves that first question: Well, does he like the carrier he has now? Crates have been completely accepted for ages as the preferred way to transport cats. The struggles, scratching, and bracing are just something all we cat owners have to put up with. We hate it — and our cats do too. But there’s never been an alternative. So, what type of carriers do cats tolerate well? What types of carriers are comfortable? While they can’t exactly tell you what they want, the best soft cat carriers should be:
- Roomy (But Not Oversized) – Your cat should be able to move around and get cozy in their carrier.
- Comfortable – Many cats don’t like feeling confined in their crates and carriers. A heads-free design lets them see what’s happening, while breathable fabric adds comfort.
- Durable – You don’t want your kitty to tear their carrier! Features like snag- and scratch-resistant material ensure durability.
Creating the Best Soft Cat Carrier
What carriers are most comfortable for cats? We have just the solution for timid cats and frustrated cat parents everywhere: the Cat-in-the-Bag Cozy Comfort Carrier. Twenty-four years ago, an upstart began to send ripples through the cat carrier industry. The ripples were very small, imperceptible at first. But they grew bigger. And bigger. As the internet changed the way we interact with social media and advertising, the Cat-in-the-Bag cat purse carrier became known to literally millions of people. It seemed to people who were just discovering it that suddenly, there was an alternative to crates and to other carriers that close cats completely in! But we believe we’ve had the answer for 25 years — years spent designing prototypes until we had an acceptable one that allowed roomy comfort, while the collar adjusted snugly to gently restrain the cat from running away while outside. More years were spent learning about cats, their behaviors, likes, and dislikes as we spent 10-hour-days speaking one-on-one with thousands of cat owners at cat shows, pet expos, home shows, and even the Ohio State Fair.
Should I Try the Cozy Comfort Carrier?
Sure, our travel cat carrier may be known as the best soft cat carrier — but is it the best for your cat? The verdict: because of all the research behind the design, we believe most cats will respond to it very well. One of our original Cat-in-the-Bag cats who was with us as we developed our lightweight cat carrier always used being in it as an excuse to stretch out, close her eyes, and snuggle in while being held by one of her favorite people. Allie was a gentle soul who enjoyed our company. Not all cats are like her, of course. There is more than one cat personality, and so, there is more than one answer to that question, “What carrier is most comfortable for cats?” We believe most cats respond well to the bag, whether they think it’s the best soft cat carrier like Allie did or just tolerate it fine. Once their heads are through the collar, they aren’t feeling the restraint like they are when they’re all closed in. The bag doesn’t fit them tightly, so they have plenty of room to move and stretch. They just don’t get upset. Some cats will be leery of attempts to put them in the Cozy Comfort Carrier. Some patience is recommended. A cat may start out acting unsure, but over time will get used to his cat sling bag — and even consider it the best soft cat carrier like we do. To get your cat used to their carrier, you can try:
- Putting a few treats inside the folding cat carrier
- Placing it out in the open for them to sniff and explore
- Leaving it with your t-shirt to get your scent on it
- Practicing carrying your cat in the carrier
