Are the zippers such cat can push out. My current one has zippers and Velcro and I can't use it because he gets out every time.

There are 2 zipper closures on each end of the bag which are held together using side-release buckles, similar to the buckles for the seatbelt attachment, only smaller. If you look at the product images, you'll see them but they aren't clicked in place. I use the carrier for my dog and he can scratch at the zippers all he wants but he can't get them to open. Take note, though, that there is only one closure for the small zipper on the top of the bag (where you can stick your hand in to reassure your pet without opening the bag) and if your cat is smart enough he can scratch at that and open the zipper. The cat can escape if he's small enough to fit that hole. (I measured the hole -- it's 6 inches long but it can open up approximately 4 inches wide.)

The zippers are very heavy duty. My cat can't get to them the way it's made. I think you will like this carrier.

The hood can be zipped closed so the pet can't get out. You can unzip and take them out thru the top or unzip the back panel and remove them there. My friend uses hers to take her dogs thru the airport to the gate, so it has to be enclosed. You can also pull the hood back so it's more open. That's how I use mine. I have a little dog that can't keep up on my walks so I put him in the stroller and take him with me. I leave the top open but he doesn't try to get out. I love this stroller!

On the bottom seam there is a zipper about 6 inches long. It looks like you could shove it all thru the zipper, but the wierd thing is the zipper doesn't have a pull tab on it, so I don't know if you'd have to some how use pliers to pull the zipper? You have to see it to know what I'm talking about I think. Hope that helps. It does have a nice handle on the top to carry it around the house (shown in pic)

This is not meant for your cat to be put in and then tied up. All the cat has to do is pull against the leash and the velcro will undo. As for escaping out of the harness with no leash attached; my cat hasn't ever escaped out of it while just wearing it. It's the tension between the harness and the leash that causes the velcro to come undone.

my cat is much smaller so Velcro holds. However, I use the kitty holster to hold other items - by that I mean I put the kitty holster neck part through the handle of plastic bag and then hang the bag on a hook to hold my recycleables. The kitty collar does have good Velcro. I have to really pull at it to unfasten it once I bring Emily in the house. It doesn't just pull apart easily you have to really pull hard to get it off.

The bottom has flaps all the way around. Stake the four corners and put dirt on these flaps and your cats will have a hard time getting out. I would still watch them, as a determined cat could get out eventually, but it makes a nice space for them to be outside. You can also get an Abo Cat Tent which is totally secure - I use this for my cats. Amazon sells these for under $50 and they're cat proof and easy to carry and simple to set up. I use the Abo tent when I'm on the road and want to get the cats out for a break.

The bottom is one piece with no zipper or velcro. However the door has a three sided zipper and allows you to roll up the door panel to keep it open. The top has a zipper the total circumference of the top and can actually be removed totally. I think it would be fine for a rabbit.

Zippers on the one I had. My dog easily got out of it. The zippers pulled apart really easy.

I only had a kitten in there, but, it was very roomy and allowed great visibility out. The top is zippered in (screen) so he can't jump out. We absolutely love ours.

Agreed - he can't pull forward and rip out, but he is a mellow guy. If he were to have a typical cat spaz attack, I could see that, if he were facing me, he could squirm out. That is a cat thing - they can get out of a straightjacket if they are scared enough. This is the most secure thing short of a barred cage, and is better than a nylon harness

The one I just bought has a zipper. I have the Velcro one as well and they are both removable and washable. I prefer the zipper one because the velcro gets worn out and starts to stick less.

I don't have the offical specs, buy I've put my 13 lb one in there with no issues and room/weight to spare, just carry it from the bottom as much as you can to be sure. Also, if your cat is curious/smart, he may be able to override the top closure which is held in place by velcro, be sure to put a safety pin in it. My kitten managed to get himself out of it while I was driving...

I have a 'fluffy' cat that weighs more - she does not like to discuss, and she fits fine plus the zippers make it easy to access them. Just make certain you belt in the carrier! Have a safe trip.

My cats have only been inside a few times as the winter weather has not always been good. One cat is thrilled with it, the other cat is very nervous and is a real Houdini--he managers to work open the zippers--so the zippers will have to be twisted shut with something strong. I also keep my cats nails cut, the sharp pointy tips mainly--and, as this is a new toy for them I have usually sat nearby and kept my eye on them. So, I am not too much help.

The zippers are heavy duty. I have had no problems with the play pen. I have kept my two kittens in it everyday for months. They like to sleep in it for their naps. They love to play under it and around it but have not damaged it. They cannot get out unless you leave the zipper slightly unzipped. It is easy for them to push the zippers if the are not completely together at the top of the cage.

Yes, the top zips shut as do the doors. However, I have 2 miniature schnauzer pups and somehow they have managed to get out without damaging the door! I guess they are little Houdinis who figured out how to unzip!! I even tried fastening the door zippers together with a twist tie and they still got out!! Tried video-ing them to see if I could catch them in the act but they did not cooperate!! Two little dickens!!!

I use this for my six year old cat and she doesn't want out. She loves to go on walks. As long as she is put in the stroller and zipped up before I go outside, there has never been a problem.
