I have been looking for a metal carrier but saw this. Its plastic but top-opening which is easier to get a cat into. Also it has a shoulder-strap (not sure what the point is  :evillaugh: ) and its only £9.99  ;D - anyone bought one? - no point if its flimsy or not safe - I'm curious though.

No good if your cat likes to see where is going!

its not overly big 45 x 33 x 33 (18" long 12" high and 12" wide), ok I suppose for a normal size cat

It reminds me of a picnic hamper... I like the idea of top opening one... am looking for one myself!

I had a wire one from CP a while back and it is so easy to get a cat into - worth chancing a tenner on  ;D

I like that but it's too small for Jaffa.

I don't have that exact one but I do have a similar one and it is very flimsy, the clips which hold the lid down break very easily.  But it is absolutely ideal for getting cats into when they are all four legs, claws out, spread in different directions  :evillaugh:
