Purchased the pricey big cat backpack
by Anonymous

Purchased the pricey big cat backpack (>$200) from this company, and it disappointingly fell apart in less than a year. Despite engaging in a back-and-forth email exchange, they attributed the issue to the cat being attached to the leash, which wasn't the case (my cats don't wear leashes in their backpacks). Interestingly, I have another backpack from Amazon that's been around for twice as long, and it's holding up perfectly with the same cats. I strongly advise against buying from this company due to poor product quality and their failure to uphold their warranty.

by Denise

The Fat Cat backpack has become a beloved item for me and my cats. Chang is already accustomed to wearing his harness, and I'm currently clicker training Lao to get him used to his harness. I keep the backpack open in the hallway, allowing my boys to acclimate to its presence and scent. I appreciate that Your Travel Cat, a fantastic female-run company, not only offers cat-friendly products but also conducts seminars on training cats to wear harnesses and become comfortable in their backpacks or carriers. My 😻😻's and I adore their products.

Ordered a back-ordered $150
by Joey

Ordered a back-ordered $150 backpack. Waited for three months to receive it. Unfortunately, FedEx delivered the backpack to the wrong house, and I can confirm this as they provided a picture of the wrong porch. Upon contacting FedEx, they claimed they couldn't assist and advised me to reach out to the shipper to file a claim. It's been three weeks, and despite multiple messages, they have not responded to resolve the issue. Regrettably, it seems I'm out $150. I cannot recommend ordering from this place, as it appears to be questionable.

Overall, my experience with Travel Cat
by Carly P

Overall, my experience with Travel Cat has been positive. I had checked out their website before but never bought anything. When I began training my cat to go outside with a harness given by a friend, I decided to buy one from Travel Cat. The harnesses were sent out promptly after I ordered them and arrived quickly. They fit both my cats really well and were easier to put on compared to others. I'm confident they won't slip out of these harnesses, and I'll likely buy more in the future!

by Monsieur

The company offers a nice variety of cat products. Travel Cat has a good selection of backpacks, harnesses, and accessories designed to make traveling with our pets easier. They offer helpful resources and events to share experiences, along with weekly profiles of traveling cats to keep you motivated. Additionally, my experience with them regarding product inquiries or exchanges (due to choosing the wrong size) was positive.

The backpack's plastic part, crucial for
by AOD Legend

The backpack's plastic part, crucial for the bubble attachment, is disappointingly fragile; it shattered with minimal handling. However, the company's positive aspect shines through in their responsive customer service, promptly sending a free replacement. Despite this, concerns persist about the bubble's durability, prompting consideration of reinforcement to ensure the safety of pets during use.

I got the "Fat Cat" Backpack for
by Barbara

I got the "Fat Cat" Backpack for my 13-pound cat, Maverick, and it's just right for him! It's hard to find backpacks for bigger cats, but this one fits the bill. Maverick seems comfy in it, it stays sturdy, and it's simple to handle. I've had mine for around 5 years, and it's holding up great. I'd definitely suggest this backpack for bigger cats like Maverick!

The backpack's plastic part connecting
by Maiya

The backpack's plastic part connecting the bubble is extremely fragile, breaking with minimal effort. However, I contacted the company, and they're sending a replacement at no cost, displaying good customer service. Despite this, concerns arise about the bubble breaking while my cat is inside, prompting the need for potential reinforcement.

The Navigator backpack completely transformed the way I bring my cat on hikes! It's incredibly comfortable, maintaining its shape without sagging, ensuring my kitty's comfort whether inside or on top. The ample space for water bottles, snacks, and treats is a fantastic feature. This purchase was so worth it!
