A \u003cstrong\u003ecurved dome gives peripheral vision\u003c\/strong\u003e, so the animal can track movement to the sides without pressing its face against plastic.

The published load is \u003cstrong\u003e17.6 pounds for cats and 14.3 pounds for dogs\u003c\/strong\u003e, and the difference is not arbitrary: a dog carries its weight further from the spine of the pack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePVC Shell, Oxford Cloth Back\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dome and front are \u003cstrong\u003ePVC\u003c\/strong\u003e; the body and straps are \u003cstrong\u003eOxford cloth\u003c\/strong\u003e.
