Despite it being a budget carrier, the Necoichi Portable Ultra Light Cat Backpack Carrier is made out of a relatively strong fabric and provides good ventilation thanks to its mesh walls. When not in use, the carrier can be folded right down so that it is small enough to fit inside of your pocket.
The design of the Necoichi Portable Ultra Light Cat Carrier backpack replicates a tepee and gives your pat cat lots of space to sit up and stretch. Despite it being really light weight, it is capable of holding cats that way up to 18 lbs, such as American Shorthairs or American Bobtails. Because of its design, we would advise against using the cat carrier for longer journeys.

If you have lots of different questions at this point, these FAQs should hopefully provide you with all of the answers that you need.
This all comes down to the personal preference of your cat, which only you will know best best. However, we can provide you with some information about these two types of carrier. Soft carriers for cats are generally less bulky and not as sturdy as a hard carrier, and typically have more openings. Should your cat get sick when travelling then soft carriers are much more difficult to clean than a hard carrier.
For any cats that are prone to scratching a lot, then soft carriers should be avoided for for obvious reasons. Because hard carriers are usually bigger, they provide your nervous pet cat with more space to move around. Most hard carriers allow for the top to be detached, which makes cleaning it that much easier. They are also, of course, much more durable and hardwearing than soft carriers.
It is important to create a nice and welcoming environment inside of the carriers so that your cat will enjoy spending time in there. Ensuring that they have enough space to sit up and stretch is also another helpful way in keeping them calm when inside of the carrier. It may also be beneficially to put some of their favorite treats or toys in there with them in order to take their minds off of the situation.
If the carrier is large enough, then there is no issue with putting two cats into a single carrier. However, this should never be done for for anything more than just a few hours, as the cats will need to stretch and move around a bit. Two cats should never be put into a carrier together if they are likely to be aggressive towards one another.
For any healthy fully grown cat, the maximum amount of time that they should stay in a carrier for is 6 hours. Keeping them in for any longer than that can cause your cat to get sick or have accidents. If you are partaking in a journey with your cat that is longer than 6 hours, it is important to let them out of the carrier at regular intervals so that they have the opportunity to go pee and have a drink.
Because it has been specifically designed to reduce your cat’s levels of anxiety when travelling, we awarded the PetLuv “Happy Cat” Premium Cat Carrier with the accolade of being the best cat carrier for nervous cats of all. Other things that we liked about this carrier is that it features locking zippers so that you can keep your pet cat safe and secure at all times when in transit, and the fact that it is completely collapsible, which makes storing it when not in use so much easier. The only downside to this carrier is that it is unclear as to whether or not it has airline approval.
