How to choose
Car journeys, vet trips and days out. Two things decide most of it: how your pet travels, and how long they will be in there.
In the car: a tether clipped to a harness, never a collar. Be clear that a tether keeps a pet in place rather than protecting them in a crash — nothing here is crash-tested, and we will not imply otherwise.
Carriers: let your pet explore it open at home for a few days before the first trip. A carrier that appears only on vet day becomes a vet-day object. Never leave a pet in one in a parked car.
Water and food: folding bowls and squeeze bottles. Check the capacity against the journey — 300 ml is a top-up, not a day's supply.
