Review of All Living Things Small Animal Carrier, Large

We went to SEAVS, our favorite vet in the world, the other day. The humans have been transporting us in a small aquarium, which kind of works when they're transporting us one at a time, but was rather miserable when they tried to take both of us together. Only one pigloo would fit inside the aquarium, and we'd both fight over it, until the human who wasn't playing with the big wheel took it away from us.

Nowhere to run! Nowhere to hide! This is terrifying!
Since the humans were planning on taking us to the pignic, which is a long drive, we needed something better to transport us. (On a side note, we didn't go to the pignic after all. More on that in another post.) The humans got us this to replace the aquarium:

Hey, that's not a guinea pig on the package!
We were a little worried because the package showed a ferret on it, and we've noticed that when guinea pigs aren't specifically mentioned on a product, it's not a good sign. However, this time was an exception to the rule.

This isn't so bad.
Here's what we liked better about this: First, the stripes on the side were really stylish. Second, we could look out of the screen while still being protected by an opaque ceiling. It felt safer, kind of like a pigloo. Third, it cost a lot less than the other guinea pig-sized pet carriers available at our local pet stores. We also liked how the humans put an old towel down underneath us; it was very comfortable. I only wish there was a convenient way to include food and water in the carriers for us. Still, this was a much better way to travel. 4/5 stars!

  1. I have 2 of these carriers also. My piggies love them and I get compliments on them.

  2. I'll have to buy one of these! On our last trip to the vet, all I had that would fit one guinea pig comfortably was a case that had held a six pack of beer. Sturdy, with handles, but a little on the red-neck side lol
