The litter tray

Best cat carrier recommendations please

I'm very excited that after about a billion years wanting to get a cat, my husband has agreed and we are picking our cats up on 29 July Smile.

However, we go on holiday this Thursday until the 29th which doesn't give me much time to get organised.

Can anyone recommend a good cat carrier to bring them home in? Preferably one that I can order from Amazon prime or pick up relatively easily.

Would also really appreciate litter tray/bed/cat tree/any other recommendations you may have.

Apologies if this has been covered in earlier posts, I'm at work having a panic just now, I'll look through other threads tonight. Thank you so much in advance!

Also, here are some pics of my beautiful girls Grin

I see a lot of cat carriers this I feel is one the very best. Wide opening door and the lid opens up like a clam to get a scared cat out or treat them in their box.

we have the one lonecat linked to also this one. Both open at the top the catit one feels a bit more flimsy maybe as it opens out completely on the top, when open. the second one feels more sturdy and it better for bigger cats.

Also have this one for when I need to take cat to vets by myself as I don't drive and is far easier to take on a bus and carry as I walk.

I've got the one recommended by Lone and it's brilliant.

Are they silver tabbies?

Thank you for all the recommendations, so helpful! I love that litter tray Bengal, who knew a litter tray could be stylish.

They are silver tabbies, I would have happily had any kitties but the other dictators in my life (my dds) had their hearts set on a silver tabby.

Ok I'll keep him. Once you've dropped them you do have to buy them.

Like in a shop.

I have the one Lonecat recommended and it's very good. A good size for when your girls grow and opens at the top so you can lift them out easily when they don't want to get out 😋.
The only thing I didn't like was the lever on the front to open the door was always stiff on ours and actually broke last week when we were in the vet. It rotated on a plastic rod which broke but hubby has replaced it with a metal pin and now it works even better .

I've got a couple of these for mine

Folds flat so good for storage, and you can stand it on end with the doorway zipped half-closed so it's quite easy to drop a reluctant cat in tail first & quickly close the rest of the zip.

However I have heard that a really feisty bugger can claw its way out. Also, 2 of mine hate car journeys, & pee & poo everywhere, which isn't good with fleece/canvas Hmm
