Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I purchased this cage to take our 8 lb., 2 y-o cat on a 8-hour road trip. The size was perfect to fit into the back door of the sedan we rented. (I have another cage that's a few inches taller and wider, but I couldn't get that one in through the back seat door of our personal car.) I was so happy to find this one at a reasonably low price. I took the partition piece and created a second level on the side with the smaller door (added a box with cushioning for her to lay on). This allowed me to put her litter on the opposite end since she needs the entire height to use her litter. Under the "second" level I placed her food and water on opposite sides (secured both using twist ties). The space wasn't the biggest because in order to get to the second level she had to step inside her litter, but the cage provided everything she needed for her first road trip, and more importantly our precious Evie was secure for the trip. Side note: if using for the same purpose, I encourage you to purchase a few weeks before your road trip and let your pet get used to the cage. I fed Evie in it every day and kept the doors open. I'd play with her by tossing her toys inside, and gradually got her used to me closing the doors while she was inside and making a game of opening them. By the time we were ready for our road trip she wasn't freaked out about being locked inside the cage. She was a little nervous (even though I'd been feeding her Composure treats starting a week before our trip as her vet recommended), but I think her nervousness was more from being outside her normal home environment. During our stay in our daughter's home, I kept the cage door open at all times and would find Evie inside every so often (even though her food and litter were outside the cage). The return trip home was much more calming for her.
