After 18 years of "cat and bag experience" I decided for this one. Reason: our little one has almost "panoramic view" - only the rear portion on which a large practical pocket is closed. The bag is very stable .... our Yorkie weighs almost 6 kg .... it can it still very doll stretch out on long journeys and in the hotel it is "their cave" - when I close up the RV and the front flap Open, she feels safe and drags everything purely what is important to her :-))
