This carrier is overwhelmingly easy to carry for small animals. (I've used many different carriers, and I own several of the same type.) The handle is made long, so petite people (like women) can hang it from their shoulder, and the handle is thick, making it less tiring to carry. The inside also has a sturdy slatted floor, so it doesn't lose its shape easily, and your pet can spend time comfortably if you put down hay and pet sheets. This carrier combines ease of carrying for people and comfort for small animals. I think this is the perfect carrier bag for taking your pet for walks, to the nearby hospital, etc. Regarding shipping, please choose whether you want the top fabric part to be folded or shipped as is. I believe there was a cardboard insert to prevent it from losing its shape, but since it's paper, you can crush it by pressing down on it. If you crush it, the height will be about a third, which is likely to reduce the shipping cost. Of course, you can also have it shipped as is. The packaging will be simple, in a plastic bag. I'm selling this because I haven't used it, although I've stored it indoors. It's new and unused, but please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about it being a storage item. No claims, no returns. I am also selling the LL size and flexible type of Usa-Dan heater. I am also selling a light bulb type heater. Please contact me if you want to purchase them together.
