Carrier Size Guide

A good carrier size guide can save pet owners a lot of headaches when it comes to travel. To measure your pet for the right carrier, start with their length, from the tip of the nose to the base of the tail, and add a few inches to ensure enough space. Next, measure the height from the floor to the top of the head (or ears for some pets). Finally, make sure there’s enough room inside for your pet to turn around and sit comfortably. Some manufacturers provide weight limits for their carriers, but this is less important than the actual dimensions. It’s always better to err on the side of giving your pet a little more room than not enough, especially for long trips.
