Big enough for 2 -10 lb cats? Anyone used this to fly animal? Did the food/water dish work well?

We flew 1 10# dog, 2 cats would be a little cramped. The water and food dish are not included, the picture is misleading.

My dog flew overseas to Europe. ...shes a terrier and weighs 20 lbs about .she had lots of wiggle room.water dishes I used ice but they did get the pen wet.i used water bottle like for a hamster.also used dry fur pads to absorb wetness..they worked well...dry fur has a Web and all sizes.i think the cats would be fine.i bought extra ties to secure the doors and replaced all plastic bolts with metal..airline request. Hope this helps.

I think it will hold two cats, yes. I use it to transport a green wing macaw. I haven't used the dishes or flown an animal so I can't help you there.

You will not be able to fly two cats in the same kennel, regardless of the size. It's against the airline regulations. However, if you were doing everyday transport, two cats could fit. I bought one of these for each of my cats and they worked great!

my 3 cats are just under 10 pounds each. In the large, thy have room to move and turn around. The small would probably work, but for long periods it may be a bit restrictive.

Of course. Both my cats shared the seat (they are at least 50 lbs combined) it is good at enduring a lot of jumping on and off but does loose suction time to time. After re adjusting I always push down on it to make sure the suction cups stay in place

Our Mama cat is about 15 lbs and she fits fine. Our cats play and lounge in it but if you're intention is to use it as a littler box tent I would not recommend it; it just seems small for that purpose. Also, it needs to be secured to something or they can easily move it. We can Velcro it to a pillow but when we leave it unattached they play and tumble around in it and move it all over the room.

there is certainly room to move in this carrier for my 16 lb, very long cat but it is tight. the mesh openings help so he does get air. I would say OK for a short flight.

It should work. It seems sturdy and it's good for my 10 pound cat, but we haven't actually traveled with it yet. I just put her in it and carried her around the house. Of course she's not crazy about being in it, but she will have to get used to it when were riding in the car to short trips to the vet.

my cat was 27 lbs. and 31" from head to tail and fit comfortably in the carrier. he could move around. it is too big to fly with. since cats don't walk on a leash, i love it. i could not carry my cat. we have taken car travels of 10 hours or more with no problem. at home, it's always out and sometimes he goes in there of his own free will to sleep.

This stroller seems to be designed to safely transport pets up to 15 lbs each. I use it to bring my 15 & 23 lb cats on short visits to the vet. It holds up just fine with that weight when the carriers are fixed and supported by the stroller (big guy on bottom), but I would only use the carrier on it's own for up to 15 lbs. The base of each carrier is only made of stiff cardboard covered in vinyl, and would bend and collapse with too much weight.

My top loading carrier is very small. I fit comfortably my 7 lb cat, but I believe you could safely carry a 10lb docile cat.

The carrier was very comfortable for my 14 lb. dog. Putting 3-l3-pound cats in the carrier would be cruel, that's 39 lbs. of legs and fur, no room to move or breath and stay cool. three kittens no problem.Remember if you are flying with your pet, they are under a seat, it can be quite warm for the pet under that seat. I had to ask for water during the flight to keep my dog cool. Three is too much company, and the large carrier exceeded the measurements of the airline's standards.

Hi! Both of my cats weigh approximately 16 pounds and it works fine! They love it! I did, however, have to wrap the straps around the legs somewhat differently than the directions.stated so they wouldn't slide down the legs with the weight. But, it does seems to be secure and they are only a few inches off the floor, if that! I highly recommend.

My cats are both about 16 pounds and it works fine for them. It will rock a bit when they jump from the floor all the way to the top pedestal but so far it has not tipped over.

I use it for my ten pound cat, it fits perfectly, meaning the cat can turn around but not with much room. I would call it mini.

It would be tight with two 10lb cats.I would recommend getting two carriers.

my cat is 10lbs, and there are no issues, but i wouldn't want to go too much heavier. the construction is real good and wouldn't tear, but the bottom would flex around the dog, so it would be like carrying him/her in a duffel bag. the furry insert is just for softness and is no more rigid than a piece of cardboard.

I use it for my cat as her food dish. I put 1/4 cup of food in it in the morning and another at night. I have had the dish for 2 yrs and she has gone from 14 pounds to 11.75. Sometimes she knocks it over but not frequently. I dont know how well this would work in a multi cat family.

No, it's barely big enough to furnish water for a cat. You will need something much bigger for large animals.
