Kitty Bloggy - Reviews

We just received our PetGear AT3 from the mail - we bought it on eBay from adventurepetoutlet.

We got the PetGear brand because it is the best brand out there for pet strollers (so we gathered from reviews), and we wanted something with a smooth ride because cats are less likely than dogs to tolerate much jolting.

Here are some pros and cons.

Pros:

This stroller was very easy to put together
It handles incredibly well - the 3 wheels are ideal. It can easily turn and not much force is needed to push it.
The wheels are very big which is good for handling
It seems extremely sturdy.
It has 2 ports for cats to enter/exit - one in rear, one over top
There is plenty of room for 2 cats in there, and one cat can lounge quite nicely
The ride is very smooth because of the shock absorbers
The wheels lock easily
It folds up quite easily and fits in the trunk
Cat is higher up than in one of those 3-way carrier models
I am 5'8'', and even in heels the holding bar is easy for me
There are lots of storage places - not sure that we will be using them but could be a plus
Can easily see in/out - a lot of window space!
It seems cozy for them to sit in there, they like to go in it even when it is not in use!

Cons:

It is somewhat heavy to actually pick up - much heavier than the smaller Sportster by PetGear - or so we hear
The top is a little bit hard to zip open and close - we hope this will change with time.
The smell inside is a little bit "plastic" but that should go away in a few weeks

Overall, the cats seem to like riding in it - at least short distances so far. We will be using it for Figaro's Pet Therapy visits starting in a few weeks.
