Petsfit Bird Carrier with Anti-Pecking Band,Bird Backpack Carrier with 2 Level Height to Adjust Standing Perch and Shade Cover Blue

I originally bought one of those carriers on here with the ugly patterns that are just bulky shoulder bags with mesh on each side and a perch inside. I wasn't satisfied with it at all, but it was the only bird carrier I could find that was easily portable and didn't cost $200-300 like Celltei carriers. I decided to just bite the bullet and buy a Celltei carrier for my bird, when I found this one. It looked excellent online and had good reviews, so I ordered one. I was skeptical about the quality of it because it just seemed too good to be true. My other searches for carriers other than Celltei brand (which are outrageously overpriced, like, come on, what makes your carrier worth over $200???) and the crappy one I bought before yielded nothing, so imagine how skeptical I was of this one when I found it. However, when it arrived and I unboxed it, I was amazed. It doesn't feel cheap or flimsy in any way. Unlike the ugly carrier I bought before, it looks good, not too different from a regular backpack. It also has shoulder straps, which the ugly carrier didn't have; it only had a crossbody strap, which made it too unstable when walking and shook my poor bird around when I was trying to take him out for a nice stroll at the park. I would have to hold it by the top handle constantly, which just ruined the experience for me, since it was really tiring. This carrier has a lot of versatility in how you carry it. You can wear it on your back like a backpack, over the shoulder like a messenger bag, or simply carry it by the top handle. I haven't tried it yet, but you could probably strap it to your front like a baby carrier, if you felt safer taking your bird out when you could keep an eye on the carrier or if you simply wanted to have your bird closer to interact with. One thing I didn't know about this bag when I ordered it is that it has the ability to be configured so that you can fasten a seatbelt through the straps on the back, like you would a child's carseat. The waist straps can be fastened into 2 extra buckles at the top for this feature. The instructions that come with it explain this. I was happy when I discovered this addition. I like to take my bird places, but I want to ensure that he is safe while traveling. You can put the shoulder strap over the headrest of one of your carseats and fasten the seatbelt through the straps on the back for a secure ride for your bird, while driving. All of the zippers on the carrier are high quality, not flimsy and breakable. You would have a very hard time breaking one of these zippers. The clear plastic window on the front of the carrier is very flexible but doesn't feel like it would be easily broken. I love the shades that you can roll over the front and sides if your bird needs sleep or privacy while traveling. The area for attaching a water bottle is an awesome addition, and the elastic straps for holding the bottle are very snug. My bird has a glass water bottle, and I don't worry at all about it slipping out of the straps of this bag. The food bowl also fits very snugly and securely. I like the drip tray and the removable grate that goes over it. It's extremely easy to clean. The included zipper pouch is super useful for carrying foods or prescriptions, and the mesh pocket on the side is great for treats. While out and about, the metal ventilation holes in the carrier are big enough that you could give your bird treats through them and not have to try unzipping the bag a little and risking your bird flying away. Also, another thing I didn't know when I ordered is that the carrier comes with a storage bag for storing the entire carrier, which is really nice. If you don't use it often, the bag can keep it from getting dusty and protect it from pests while in storage. When I first set the carrier up, I used a wet cloth soaked in bird safe sanitizing solution to wipe down the inside of the carrier and the perch. The material is smooth and very easy to wipe off. The drip tray slides in through one side and fits very tightly, so you don't have to worry about the tray moving around. The ventilation mesh feels to be of a good quality. That being said, I wouldn't recommend this for birds larger than a large conure or for aggressive chewers. The mesh is not made of metal, so a determined bird could probably chew through it. You should supervise your bird in this carrier before taking it outside. My bird (green cheek conure) doesn't chew anything very often, so I don't worry about him chewing through the mesh or plastic window and escaping. Still, that is one of my criticisms of this carrier; it would be better with a metal or tough plastic wire mesh. Even though it's very unlikely that my bird would ever chew through it, I would feel even more secure transporting him in it if the mesh were made of a stronger material. My only other suggestion for this carrier is that a toy hook inside would be great for preventing birds from getting extremely bored during travel. You could find a way to hang most toys inside, especially because the carrier has 4 ventilation holes across the top, but a dedicated toy hanger would still be nice. Overall, I love this carrier, and I'm so glad I found it so I could save potentially $200 on a quality bird carrier. I even got compliments on it the very first time I took my bird out in it. His first trip in this carrier was to the exotics vet for a check up, and the vet said this carrier was "really cool" and asked where I got it. Then, as I was leaving the office, a woman who was at the check out window complimented how neat it was. It really is an excellent carrier, and I highly recommend it to anyone with a smaller bird up to a bird around the size of a sun conure. It's not big enough for medium sized birds. However, I wouldn't recommend it for very small birds, like finches, because they could feasibly squeeze out of the ventilation holes. I also recommend getting some 3M Vetrap and wrapping the perch inside so that your bird can keep a good grip on it and not slide off.

I usually do not write reviews for products on Amazon, but I felt that I needed to write one here. This carrier EXCEEDS my expectations!!!!! I would not say that my green-cheeked conure "loves" it, but she definitely tolerates it more than any other carrier that I ever tried for her. She is a bit of a free spirit and does not like to be confined. However, the large window made her much more comfortable. It would be a little small for a larger bird, but it is a perfect size for a conure, cockatiel, or other smaller parrot. The perch is high enough that her tail does not drag the bottom, and there is plenty of room for her to move around. The quality of the product was outstanding. It is well-constructed and sturdy, which is important to me as I am using it to transport precious cargo. It is also lightweight, which is a plus! Really though, it is the little details that I was not even aware of when I made the purchase. The panel tie backs. The food bowl. The easily removable bottom tray. The space for the water bottle. And most importantly for me, easy ways to secure the carrier to a car seat for transport. No more throwing my arm back to prevent the tenuously strapped carrier from sliding during a turn or a hard brake when driving. It is more expensive than other carriers on the market, but I would highly recommend it to any bird lover. The quality and design were outstanding. It was worth it for the feathered member of my family.

I'm giving them a full rating because I really like the carrier. It's sturdy, easy to put together (food bowl was a tight fit, not going to lie. But plus side to that is that it's not going anywhere, lol), comfortable to wear, and exactly what my two green cheeks needed to get out with me. I very much appreciate the fact that it has a pull out tray and grate for the interior bottom. You just pull it out of the bottom from one side if necessary. The carrier came to me unsealed, so I'm unsure if I got a return or not, but I do want to mention that the accessory bag that clips on the side of the carrier was missing from my order. I did contact the company and they say they shipped the replacement. But it's been about a month now and I haven't received it yet. Even without the bag, the carrier is awesome. I'm glad I saved up for it because I feel at ease with my birds in it. They're not getting out and they seem very happy in it. And for those who question the included perch...I worked with it. I just wrapped it in vet tape and installed it. Voila! ***Edit: So about 2 months later I did finally receive the accessory bag. We really do love the bag, it has done us so well and my birds fly to me to get in to it. My only complaint is that the plastic on the front door/covering makes a greenhouse effect in the backpack when in the sun for a little while. Which can make your birdies very hot. And unless you completely cover up the front, there's no way to get around that. But otherwise a very nice, sturdy, functional backpack carrier.

So I ordered this since I wanted a backpack style carrier, but didn't feel like paying 250 for one. I was bit hesitant on this, since it was advertised for small birds and I have a Timneh African gray, but my fears were unfounded since this is more than large enough for him (for better sizing, see the photos above). I'll be honest, I was expecting something kinda cheap in build, but I will say I was delighted to be proved wrong. Right out of the box, everything was neatly packaged in a really good quality case. That's right, the carrier came with it's own carrying case which easily fits the carrier and all it's parts. As a little aside, the case has a little card attached with contact info for the manufacturer letting you know you can contact them for damaged, defective or missing parts, if you have any issues in setting up or just to let them know if you have ideas to improve it. I don't often see that from sellers on amazon, and it was really nice touch that left me with a good feeling about this manufacturer. Actually getting the carrier out and set up took about 10 minutes total. The directions weren't super easy to follow, but honestly you hardly need them, it's zip a few things up and slide in the tray. Again, build quality was really impressive here. The main zippers are cleverly protected on the inside from any naughty beaks ( a blessing, my bird loves zippers). The whole carrier feels really sturdy and well made. The mesh feels strong, the fabric firm, the zippers solid metal. The covers for the mesh all have solid, smooth backings. I tried it on, and as a backpack, it was actually fairly comfortable and stable, I could see myself walking around with it very easily. The side strap wasn't quite as comfortable, but I have very slim shoulders so I think that was more of the issues. Actually I think my only suggestion for improvement would be tucking the zipper for where the tray enters, and maybe adjusting the carrier so it fits better for those without broad shoulders. Other than that, an excellent product that I whole-heartedly recommend.

Best carrier for my bird friend! He has plenty of room to move and plenty of air flow. I was able to quickly assemble the carrier and my bird began doing his bobbing happy dance when I placed him inside. Plenty of storage for a bag of treats or food on the go. A feeding bowl is secured in the bag. And if your bird drinks from a water bottle, there is a hook up for that as well. The carrier can be used as a backpack, has a handle to carry along your side and a removable shoulder strap. The carrier can also be hooked up to a safety belt in the vehicle. The carrier comes with a cloth storage bag for when the carrier is not in use. The carrier can transfer two conures with room to move. It is designed with mesh sides for maximum airflow and tie backs for the side flaps if you want the bird to see out of the bag. If you want your bird in total darkness for calming purposes, the sides and front have flaps that snap close. The tray provided slides in/out easily by way of a zippered slot. The carrier is made with cloth and mesh and is sturdy so the bird won’t overheat or get hurt. My bird will now be able to safely enjoy a walk with me, and safely enjoy a car ride.

This product seems to be a nice cage. However, it doesn’t show on the measurements that 19inches is actually cut in half. Why?, because the perch is in the middle of the space available. So your bird need to be as tall as the tail is long. My bird isn’t, she has a short tail. Now that I have 5 days until travel, I can’t get one in time so I’ll have to keep this one and Jerry rig it!! So it’s useless to me but I can’t return it! That’s some shady business tactics.

Great travel cage for going to avian vet, assembled quickly. Unfortunately, our African Grey freaks out at anything new, so we are slowly introducing it to her. I’d post a photo, but the cage would be empty.

This bag feels more dedicated toward a long travel like a move across country. Ventilation does not seem that good and I wish they had a side pouch that could allow the addition of a optional fan for a hot day. Needless to say the quality feels good the sides that are 100% stiff/cloth are reinforced with some plywood like material for stiffness, inside is lined with what feels to be a good quality plastic offering wind resistance of course the downside is it will trap heat however I feel it has enough netting and the outer material being a cooler color shouldn’t build up much extra heat and will give the bird optimum shade. I’ll update this review after I try it out Just very impressed by the build quality and I’m sure my cockatiels be happy. The perch is a nice thickness, not to happy about water bottle position meaning the bird needs to be on the button of the bag to drink water where as they can eat perched however I think that’s more or less a problem with the design since if it could be placed higher the material would be to thin plus the ventilation would probably be hindered if they were to flip flop it to where the top is stiff and the button is a mesh material. So I don’t think there is any work around in that area. Edit: My Bird got injuried and the vet advised my cockatiel stay in a cage roughly the size of this bag and honestly this bag makes it easy to give him his meds, he feels safe, and he has his food and water so it’s like a temporary portable cage. Took perch out since he can’t perch right now and I’m laying pillow cages over the metal grid for my lil guy to lay on. All and all solid bag and definitely fantastic for vacations or monitoring a injured or sick Bird by placing them on your night stand when you sleep or on your desk when you work.
