Really cool carrier!

This cat carrier is so unique. I opened it up and put in ground so cars could check it out and stretch out on the nice fluffy pad. They all loved it. Love the zippers and easy to open close and adjust ! I hope they make a bigger version for my monster size cat!

I've used it three times to take our kitties to the vet. I always get such complements! Our kitties love the carrier and even lounged in it after they came home from their appointments. Highly recommend!!

Love!

Haven’t taken it for a spin yet, but kitty loves laying in it which makes me feel better about crating him for travel. Super sturdy, secure, and well-made. It’s the Mercedes of cat carriers!

Ditch the old carrier and get this - You wont regret it!

For the last year i've been using a more rectangular carrier from amazon. After various travel trips with my cat, I felt that I needed to make a change because he could be obviously distressed when in the carrier. I decided to make a switch to the tuft and paw carrier because of its shape, mesh and design. The house shape carrier allows my cat is sit up and provides him with more space to move around. I love how theres thicker mesh on the sides so that he isn't overwhelmed by his environment when we travel. Lastly, I love the color and design of this carrier. Overall, this carrier has made traveling with my cat so much easier and i'm so glad I made the switch.

P.S I left the carrier out so that he could get used to it. It's been over a week and hes spent every night sleeping in it!

Amazing!

I love how customizable this product is. You can have it fully open or partially open in many ways… and it makes my kiddos feel right at home! Thank you for another amazing product!

Frequently Asked Questions

: Sure is. The structure is reinforced by wires in the end panels (the house-shaped ends) and rigid panels along the length to make it hold its shape supporting up to 30 lbs without sagging or collapsing.
: Generally speaking, yes! However, it's worth noting that all airlines have slightly different rules regarding animal carriers in the cabin so it is best to double-check with the airline before your journey. Keep in mind, within the same airline the rules might even differ depending on the aircraft.
: Yes! There are 2 areas of mesh for air flow; one on the door and one central top window.
: Porto weighs 5.8 lbs on its own.
: There are two options for putting your cat in the carrier: Loading from either of the zippered doors on the sides or loading from the top. Some cats may take to one method better so it's good to try both! All zippers have an auto-locking feature so your cat can't paw the zipper open from the inside.
: Accidents happen! We made sure to use materials that were super easy to clean. If a mess does arise, use paper towels or a clean cloth to remove any solid waste or excess liquid. Blot the affected area with a clean dry cloth to absorb as much of the remaining liquid as possible. Then, use a gentle, unscented laundry soap to spot-clean the mess. Allow it to dry, then reassess. If a stain remains, try a household fabric stain remover product, making sure to follow the manufacturers' instructions for spot treatment/upholstery. If there's urine involved, look for an enzyme cleaner formulated for pet urine; you can find this at most pet stores. The bed can be machine washed on a gentle, cold setting and air-dried. Small scuffs or stains can be spot treated with a stain remover pen.
: It's about 19 x 10 x 6" when collapsed and folded. When storing for longer periods of time, we suggest folding it and placing it in the bag provided.
: Through our research, we found that a carrier's mesh door panel is the area that's most likely to get scratched. So, we went ahead and found a super sturdy mesh that excelled in our specially developed scratch test. We use this test for all of our scratching materials to ensure that they can withstand even the toughest scratches! The walls and base of the carrier are also very durable, but they may show signs of wear over time if your cat's a persistent scratcher.
: The zippers on the Porto are auto-locking, which means that there's a little mechanism inside the zipper head that requires the puller, (the dangly bit) to be pulled to engage and release the lock. So even if you've left the carrier open slightly, your cat won't be able to open it any further from the inside. No great escapes!
: Porto can be secured to a car seat by feeding a seat belt through the carrier's seat belt straps to ensure it doesn't slide around during regular driving. However, please be aware that this doesn't guarantee safety in the event of a crash. Drive safely! Precious cargo on board.
