How the check works
Felineering mathA carrier is within limits when your cat's weight is at or below the maximum weight its maker states. Where a maker doesn't state one, we show 'Limit not stated' rather than guess.
LimitsA weight limit is about the carrier's strength; your cat also needs room to stand and turn around. For flights, check your airline's under-seat size as well.
Questions
What size carrier does my cat need?
One rated above your cat's weight that lets your cat stand and turn around comfortably.
