Sky Kennel IATA Airline Compliant Plastic Dog Crate For Air and Land Travel, Giant 48" L For Pets 90-125 lbs, Heavy Duty Dog Kennel, Made in the USA

I'm very pleased with this burly Sky Kennel. Now for the "Rest of The Story". What? I needed something sufficiently portable yet very sturdy and tough that I didn't have to build and give above average security for this nice friendly "Calico Cat" that just showed up one day, with a very active inclination to use her claws on everything. Welp, my little Calico Buddy, you're not an "indoor cat".... "Might-a-wuz", but now you isn't..... The Large "Myodal" Feral Cat Shelter for Outdoor Barn Strays fits inside this "Sky Kennel" perfectly. I covered the outside of this "Sky Kennel" With Single-Sided Sticky Anti Cat Scratch Deterrent Tape Furniture Protector to keep the wind and rain out.... I bought a heavy denier Waterproof Outdoor Grill Cart Cover with draw string, off Amazon, to complete the winterizing. Oh, uh, yeah, it snuck past me a concealed surprise. Give you three guesses and the first two won't count. Tasty "Temptations" Classic Crunchy and Soft Cat Treats lure "THEM" into their mansion each evening, for safety from OWLS and Such. Just Sayin...

I used this and the metal screw additional set to bring my pets to japan. I had a large one for the dog and a medium one for the cat. I didn't have any issues with Japan airlines. The crates were really spacious, and I feel like I could've bought smaller sizes because of how much room they actually had in there. It was easy to assemble and very sturdy. The design fit airline standards for international travel, but you will have to buy the extra kit for the screws. Both pets made it in one piece, so it served its purpose. The downside was that that take up too much space, so carrying them is impossible, you need a luggage cart. And then finding a vehicle to fit them in was expensive. We needed to rent a large van. And then no closet would fit them, so I had to disassemble them and store them outside, until I realized I really didn't need them, then I had to pay for large item pickup to dispose of them.

Perfect for my needs. I'm using this as an additional shelter for a couple of feral cats. I have been helping out a feral colony for several years now. A generous person in the community provides food and water consistently all year long as well as access to an unheated porch/mudroom. I help with acquiring supplies and engaging in seasonal set up and clean up. When the population was 12-15 (all trapped, spayed/neutered, returned to territory), we had several feral cat shelters in place around community. With the porch being home base for food and water. When the cold temps would set in, if any of the cats needed additional sheltering, the porch was/is always a place to go so we would set up a large dog house (igloo) with bedding (and if sub zero temps, add in heating unit). As the years have progressed, the population has decreased. At this point in time, there are but 2-3 cats left in the colony. While nothing else has changed for them, we decided that the large igloo dog house was too big to set up for 2-3 cats, and too big to be effective in cold weather. So, I set out to find a smaller unit that could handle 2 or 3 cats huddled together, or 1-2 spread out. We think it is 2 original feral cats and 1 random cat that likely has a home but enjoys eating the food. Sometimes a racoon or opossum, too. So come winter I expect to really see only 2 cats using the shelter. Although down to just two ferals, they have spent their entire life knowing that this is home base. They have zero inclination toward human interaction, but they know where the food comes from and will wait patiently while we fill bowls of food and water (2x a day!). So as I searched for the perfect vessel, I also took into consideration room for bedding and a heat pad. I didn't want anything too large (or I would just go ahead and use the old igloo), didn't want anything with lots of air holes, and preferred something flat on top so the cats could have an additional tier to lounge on. As with the igloo, we'd be keeping this up on a table. I looked at a lot of options- using a covered litter box if I could find one large enough, other containers.. basically wanted a large box that was smaller than the igloo but more sturdy than a cardboard box. It dawn on me to look at crates of this style. Even that took awhile to figure out, as there are many styles and most weren't what I needed- and were either too big or too small. SO, I was pleased when I found this one. The dimensions seemed right, the placement and size of the air holes seemed appropriate to our needs, and the top is pretty much flat. I put it together quickly. It comes with "live animal" stickers on it already along with another one. It also comes with a food/water holder. I don't need anything of that. I didn't even put the door on, but it would be super easy to put it on if the need arises. I can cover the air holes when it gets too cold by placing a towel over top and letting excess dangle down. The slats from the air holes will be perfect for use with a low wattage heating pad. We have a plug near table where this is set up, and I can likely figure out a way to fish the cord through, if not , then just out the main opening will work. If at some point this is no longer needed, then it will make a good bed for the indoor cats, or as a carrier for vet trips- if you have strength to carry this size as well as have room in vehicle. I have never air traveled with a pet, so I can't comment on how well it would stand up to those needs. I did notice that it has extra holes to run zip ties through for added security. This is explained in the short, easy directions. 28" L X 20.5" W X 21.5"H is large enough to accommodate a couple of cats, or a smallish dog. My pics are from after just setting it up. I have more to add to it, but at least you can see what it looks like once it is put together (minus the door).

Raza mediana. El precio es muy bueno comparado con el mercado (veterinarias, tiendas de mascotas, tiendas de autoservicio, etc), te ahorras una buena diferencia. El material de la transportadora es muy resistente y de buena calidad, es fácil de armar-desarmar en muy poco tiempo. Contiene tornillos y mariposas adicionales de repuesto, sin embargo, no recibí los platitos que se muestran en la fotografía (no importante para mí). La rejita y los seguros para bloquearla son muy buenos, muy dificíl que tu mascota pueda forzarlos para salir. Adicionalmente contiene dos calcomanías de "live animals" por separado para poder pegarlas cuando sea necesario - la transportadora ya tiene un par de ellas adheridas.

I purchased this product on Amazon.de to have a kennel available in Germany to fly our dog Rexy home to the US. Upon unpacking I already noticed that the plastic seemed very "soft" and flimsy. However, I was in a bind and decided to keep the kennel. Sure enough after the flight from FRA-MSP when I took Rexy out there was a hairline crack in the middle of the bottom and soon thereafter the corner broke off on its left side, see pictures. Very disappointing for a kennel that expensive.

La calidad es tal cual lo que esperaba, lo único que no es idéntico a la foto son los recipientes para agua y comida pues en la foto parece que son dos y en realidad recibí uno (dividido en dos) y es muy pequeño comparado con el tamaño del kennel y obvio con el tamaño del perro que irá ahí. El seguro de la puerta es buenísimo pues es 'mucho más seguro que los convencionales; además recií un tornillo extra, lo cual agradezco infinitamente, pues lo necesitaba para otro kennel =)

Gostei do produto. Fácil de montar, muito pratico e seguro

La puerta de la casa llegó con partes oxidadas.
