{"product_id":"mesh-sided-pet-backpack-carrier","title":"Mesh Sided Pet Backpack Carrier with Clear Front Panel","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMesh on both flanks and a clear panel at the front is more airflow than a solid capsule can offer\u003c\/strong\u003e, because two of the four walls are open weave rather than plastic. It is the cooler option in this range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTwo Walls Of Mesh, One Of Plastic\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA capsule ventilates through drilled holes, which is a small fraction of the surface. Replacing whole side panels with \u003cstrong\u003eopen mesh\u003c\/strong\u003e changes the scale of it: air crosses the pack rather than seeping through it. On a summer walk that is the difference you can feel by putting a hand against the side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Clear Panel Stays At The Front\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMesh is breathable and it is not see through in the way a cat wants. Keeping a \u003cstrong\u003eclear PVC panel at the front\u003c\/strong\u003e gives the animal a defined view forward while the sides do the breathing, which is a better split than making the whole shell one material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA Pocket On The Outside\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is a \u003cstrong\u003ezipped side pocket\u003c\/strong\u003e on the shell. A treat pouch, a folded towel or a vet card lives there instead of in a coat, which is the sort of thing you only appreciate on the third trip.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eStructure Where It Is Needed\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pack is built from \u003cstrong\u003ePVC and Oxford cloth\u003c\/strong\u003e with a \u003cstrong\u003ebuilt in lock\u003c\/strong\u003e on the closure. A lock that is part of the zipper track rather than a clip hanging off the pull cannot be worked loose from inside and cannot snag on a door frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere Mesh Is The Wrong Choice\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMesh breathes both ways. In cold wind or rain it offers far less shelter than a closed capsule, so this is a warm weather and indoor pack rather than a winter one. A cat that hooks claws into fabric will also find more to grip here than on a smooth shell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eMesh Sided Carrier Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the mesh strong enough to hold a cat that pushes?\u003c\/strong\u003e The mesh panels are set into a structured frame rather than forming the structure, so the shape is held by the shell.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it keep an animal warm in winter?\u003c\/strong\u003e Not particularly. Open sides trade shelter for airflow, which is the point of the design and its limit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat fits in the side pocket?\u003c\/strong\u003e Flat items: a card, a folded cloth, a treat pouch.
