Can the 28x20x19 carrier could fit two 17 Ilb cats? They dislike being separated so I am looking for a carrier that can fit them both.

This is a BIG carrier - German Shepard sized. I believe it would definitely fit 2 17 lb cats (we have a 20 lber!) HOWEVER - it will be VERY heavy to lift, be prepared for that!

I think it would be a pretty tight fit. My Lhasa Apso fits with not a lot of room to spare. I'd go one size up if I were housing 2 large cats.

No I don't think they would fit comfortably in this size crate. I have one 15lb. dog that fits in there but there is not a whole lot of room to spare. I can't imagine two cats that are 17lbs. each being comfortable. You will probably need to go bigger.

It's about right for my 12 lb dog so I would imagine it might be a bit small for 2 17 lb cats

They may fit, but not comfortably or happily. It's been my experience that when a cat is in a carrier, it stressed. I had two cats who get along in a larger carrier and had fights the entire way to the vets. I ended up having to get a temporary box at the vets to seperate them.

I just took a look at mine. I think two ten-pound cats would be a really snug fit...I wouldn't do it. This particular carrier is smaller than my other PetMate carriers. (I put two cats in my PetMate without thinking twice about it.) I got the Marchioro Clipper because I have a cat that gets car sick and the carrier has side release clips that make it a breeze to separate the top and the bottom for cleaning purposes.

You will not be able to fly two cats in the same kennel, regardless of the size. It's against the airline regulations. However, if you were doing everyday transport, two cats could fit. I bought one of these for each of my cats and they worked great!

I bought a few of these for cats I had to move a long distance. They are tall but not any wider than a normal carrier. They also tended to come apart when moving them so I couldn't use the handle and had to be careful. When I had 2 large cats I had to move together I used a med dog kennel. They kennels tend to be wider and sturdier.

I have a 10-pound cat that fits, with a bit of room to spare. It's a little taller than some carriers, and the sides and top are quite flexible.

For a quick trip you could put two normal size cats. But I would not recommend two male tabby sized cats. That would be a tight fit.

First of all, I think that the smaller size carriers are too small for a 40-lb dog. Maybe the larger-sized carrier (Med or Large) would have the internal room needed. Then there is the question of structure. The smaller carrier has a metal tubular framework that seems strong enough to carry a larger dog. However, the floor of the carrier is nothing more than the canvas stretched over the metal framework. It may be adequate, but to me it seems that the concentrated weight of a 40-lb dog would stretch and maybe deform the canvas floor. I have also used the larger sized carrier (not sure if it is M or L) to carry two cats. It has the same canvas floor as the smaller ones, but there are two nylon straps sewn across the flooring fabric to reinforce the bottom. The total weight of the two cats is somewhere near 20 pounds and the floor was perfect. I'm guessing the larger carriers have sufficiently reinforced floors to carry whatever the recommended weight load is for that carrier. Okay, so a larger carrier is probably good from a structural point. The problem I had carrying two cats is that even though the 20 or so pounds isn't much, the length/width/depth of the carrier, made it awkward for one person to carry it. I did, but I am 6 feet and 200 pounds - still it was sort of clumsy to carry either by the hand straps or the shoulder straps. The smaller gals at the vet clinic could not effectively carry the carrier with the two cats. If there were two of them (one on each hand strap), they managed well enough. Remember now, this was 20-something pounds and not 40 pounds. Moving your 40-pound dog will most likely require one person on each side of the carrier or you doing it alone, hunched over with the shoulder strap while you schlep your feet along.

It would be tight with two 10lb cats.I would recommend getting two carriers.

I have a 13 lb cat and the Bergan Wheeled Pet Carrier works very well for our needs!! I can't imagine what a 2 lb dog looks like but I would guess that there would be plenty of room in 1 Carrier for both of your pets!!??

In a pinch, this can fit two normal sized cats. However if you are attempting to fly two animals in the same carrier, check the airline regulations first. I'm not sure they allow that. But in terms of size, you're golden.

I need to know the dimensions of the basket, I want to put two cat carriers with cats inside in (one on top of the other) to transport from my apartment to my car in parking lot. Carriers are 15" x 23 cats weight is 15 lbs each give or take! Any input or advise would be helpful, I usually use a shopping cart, but have to find alternative.

Oh definitely! It's a very sturdy carrier. Would probably go smaller on the size than I got for my Scottie. Just measure the length of your cat, nose to base of tail, and then go off of the sizing chart.

Like one of the other responders, I too switched to the larger ABO Gear Happy Habitat, which is sturdier and easily accommodates four cats. The one you're looking at - of which I've owned two - is crowded for three, even if they get along.

To answer your question about three kitties fitting, I would say no because they couldn't really move around much. My two cats are around 13-14 lbs each, I shoved them in there together but they weren't amused. Mine like to turn around and look out back if something is interesting. The other reason it won't do well for all of them at once is the bottom sort of sags a little, with three you would need one that would accommodate more weight. Look for one a little bigger.

Right now I have 2 kittens using it and they are 5 and 7 lbs respectively. They are both on it at the same time with no problems. I think it's more a matter of length than weight with this set up. The little paw platform is a bit on the small side since it doesn't have any borders but the cubby and the bed would fit a larger cat easily. One suggestion with a larger cat tho would be to go with a different configuration than is shown. I noticed that a few other folks did this and I followed suit. It just seems the with the bed at the top it's really tall and being a narrow set up would be more inclined to be thrown off by too much activity. Sorry for the long response, just wanted to be thorough. Right now I have 2 kittens using it and they are 5 and 7 lbs respectively. They are both on it at the same time with no problems.

No. There is not ample room for 2 full grown cats. This item is soft sided and may not protect the cats properly. It is a good carrier for short car trips but not for air travel.
