    Cat Backpack

    This was in Doctor Foster and Smith's catalog I was looking at this morning. How many cats here would be able to cope with this? The picture in the catalog was a different photo though, the cat was sitting up and look out the back curiously.

    My three would most likely scratch me to death trying to get out.

    Kuhio loved her backpack. Didn't even have to zip it up.



    We always stayed in the neighborhood -- didn't cross any busy streets because I think she would have jumped out if she got scared.
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.

    I think that My Panther is the only one who amy enjoy the back pack, but like Harry, he would be a heavy load to carry!!

    Ming is almost 22 pounds. HE ain't gonna be put in that thing and carried around! Mac is about 6 or 7 pounds, but he would most likely try to claw his way out! So I'll just have to pass on this one.
    Proud to be a crazy cat lady!

    I have the pouch that fits on the front, not the back, and used it for a dog. Don't think a cat would like either one.

    Sparkle does enjoy the stroller, though. I feel better, knowing she is totally contained.

    LOOK at Kuhio!!!

    I think Cassie would like a front pack. I know she would love a stroller like Caramella has!

    Kuhio looked GREAT!

    Pinot, on the other hand, would FREAK! There is just no way. She's fine in a cat carrier, but a backpack, no.

    Seriously considering getting one of these. Since Bobcat's back surgery, he needs a cane or walker so it makes it hard to juggle the carrier. I think the backpack would be easier for him -- that way both hands would be free.

    my guys would be fidgety but not necessarily trying to get out of the backpack. Then they'd yowl at the door the rest of the night wanting to go back out.

    I sure do! Bobcat put a title in the frame. It says "Have cat -- will travel."
