I have this carrying case mainly risen for vet visits, since I have two cats. The smaller version I had short, but is a bit too small for a normal-sized cat me. So I can take both cats in an emergency, I have gained this size 50x30x27. This bag is very well made and has a round top Zippverschluss.So it falls the animal heavy, they autonomously öffnen.Meine two cats are still during the transport very young (6 months) and try not to kommen.Aber out you know never. The shelf can be taken out and wash the reference, which is very convenient. The stabilizing rods are identical processed with the other transport bags and would need my opinion on all 4 ends a hard Kunststoffkappe.Dann they would wear even after prolonged pierce the shoulder strap thin Poliester fabric. (Struts are cut maschinel and will not be rounded and rub through the shoulder strap to the fabric - hole pre-programmable) But this I prefer no star in this bag from as this was considered warscheindlich at no transport bag. I would ask all round manufacturer of such transport bags the Versträbungen at the ends smooth or einzuplanen.Es hard caps worth it for the end user !! So should the shoulder rather were not using, if you do not really benötigt.Die him two handles are quite sufficient for me personally and are good and comfortably in your hand. By normal wear the braces will remain where they belong .... I think this bag quite recommendable and the smell of new plastic and happens to be not too bad. The verliehrt over time, as well as newly purchased Kleidungsstücke.Die not smell in the business after only freshly washed when nachdenkt.Und so we buy about nevertheless always new clothes and do not judge about the smell. My cats did not bother the smell, otherwise they would not put right after unpacking the bag. Thus, everything is Ok.
