The only problem is that regular cat carriers are way too small for a 5-day trip- the cats need to be able to move around and have a cat litter tray/food dish inside. My other problem was that I had a 2-door Honda Civic, and so needed something not huge that would fit in the back seat. This is the perfect size- it just fits in the back of a Civic, as long as you turn it on its side so the front faces down (the normal way it's too tall and not deep enough). The cats had room for food, cat litter tray, and two regular size cat carriers to go *inside* the crate so they could curl up inside the carriers or roam around the crate/sleep ontop of the carriers. It helped make a small amount of space seem bigger for them, and they were surprisingly calm for the whole 5 day trip! The only thing I should add is if you put this in the back of a 2-door like my car, it's too big to pull out of the seat while "expanded." So, each night I had to get them inside their regular carriers, pull the carriers out of the car, collapse this big crate, and then set up the crate in the motel room/put the carriers inside before letting them back out inside the crate. It was a little bit of a pain, but the cats appreciated having the larger space and being able to stay in the same space the whole trip- exposing them to different spaces on a trip just stresses them out too much. I'd also advise keeping a blanket over the crate while they're in the motel, otherwise they'll meow and want to explore the room, but it's way less stress/safer for them if you just keep them in the crate and make them forget about what's going on/their surroundings outside of the crate. It took me awhile to figure this plan out, so hopefully anyone else who has to do what I did will read this and save themselves some time and stress.The crate itself is sturdy and easy to deploy/collapse, as long as it's just cats and you're only using it once in awhile, it should hold up no problem. Can't say what would happen if you had a dog that scratches, or if you used it every day though. It held up no problem for the 5 days I needed it, that's all I care about! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars These crates fit my needs! *by M***S on Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2012* I needed new travel crates for my two Boxers ... we go to obedience classes, fun matches, and trials. I wanted something lightweight and easy to set up/tear down. I researched a bunch of them.The Pet Gear Generation II Deluxe Portable Soft Crate is just what I wanted and I'm very pleased. I got this one (green) for my boy and the next smaller size (blue) for my girl.Pros: *Very lightweight *Easy to set up and tear down *Great ventilation *Sturdy - at least as sturdy as you can get with a soft-sided crate *Carrying handle *Stores and transports easily because of fairly compact size *Two removable bags for carrying stuffCons: *Top tends to sag a little, but doesn't crate a problem *Included pad is worthless - and hot. I just throw in a dog blanket or bathroom rug (and leave it in the crate when I collapse it down).All in all, I'm very pleased with this purchase. But here's a WARNING: If your dog chews or uses his paws a lot, he could well destroy this crate. The mesh is relatively thick, but NO mesh (except wire) is going to withstand chewing or digging.TIP: When you get a new crate, set it up and let your dog explore first. Do NOT force her into it right off the bat. After the initial exploration (so the dog can get used to the look/smell of the crate), open the door and allow further exploration. Then toss in a toy or treat. In other words, let your dog get used to it before you want her to go in there. Otherwise, you may be setting yourself up for the Great Escape and a destroyed crate. This tip comes from first-hand experience. :) ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Could have been a great product *by A***M on Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2013* I would probably rate this 5 stars once I'd had a chance to use it for a while. I went to a great deal of trouble and expense to have it shipped to me in Mexico. Unfortunately it came with no instructions for breaking down. The set up was intuitive and clear from the pictures on the box. When I picked it up at the shipping office, I set it up to make sure all was in order. Unfortunately, it was after dark and I had to break it down to take it with me. The lighting conditions were poor at best so I could not see how to release the joints. I looked on and in the box for instructions NOTHING. (There is a rounded button I found the next morning which, when pressed hard, releases the tension so it can be collapsed.)In the end I forced and damaged the joints and now I have a somewhat useless crate which I can't afford to ship back. A simple picture referencing the "collapse button" would have made the difference between having and not having what appears would have been a great crate. I'm now not only without a crate, but I'm out the cost of the crate and the hefty shipping expenses. You can imagine my frustration and disappointment.I love that it has three doors; one in front, one on the side and one on top. Just wish I could use it. It's larger, bulkier; heavier but much sturdier than the wonderful General Cage canvas crate I transported, first my golden retriever and later my English Setters in to and from competition for many years.Now, here I am in San Miguel, Mexico with no way to travel with my dog. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/24111657-pet-gear-generation-ii-deluxe-portable-soft-crate-for-cats](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/24111657-pet-gear-generation-ii-deluxe-portable-soft-crate-for-cats) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-03*
