Sherpa Deluxe Pet Carrier is the gold standard carrier for air travel by helping to make pet travel safe and effortless. As part of our Guaranteed On-Board program, we guide you through the requirements of Major US and Canadian Airlines to guarantee your pet in their carrier is not denied boarding based on carrier size. This stylish carrier with quality gunmetal finish hardware has top and side entries for quick and convenient pet loading. Entrances have locking zippers so your pet cannot paw or claw them open. Three mesh panels ensure optimal ventilation and airflow. A top mesh panel gives your pet visibility to see you while in their carrier, helping to soothe and decrease pet travel anxiety. The plush faux lambswool liner wrapped around a stability board cradles your pet and gives them a comfortable bed that keeps its shape and doesn't fold during travel. For hands-free carrying, clip on the adjustable shoulder strap or use the carrier luggage sleeve to secure the carrier onto your luggage trolley handle.  Before purchasing your Sherpa carrier, measure your pet to find the correct size and make sure your small cat or dog travel companion fits comfortably inside and can stand up and turn around in the carrier. Take all measurements while your pet is standing. To measure your pet's height, measure from the floor to the top of your pet's back; to measure your pet's length, measure from the tip of their nose to the end of your pet's rear; do not include your pet's tail in the measurement.
