So, I bought an actual kid stroller for Miss Astrid. I wanted something that was cheap and not just a novelty thing. So I found this one second hand for $20 and added a uv protection mesh over it. Astrid fits perfectly! I just need to work on how I attach her to the seat.
She seemed to like it, until the last five minutes, then she started screaming at me lol. Crazy cat lol

That is sooo cute! I would be very careful about attaching her to the stroller. If she gets scared or startled, and starts to thrash around or try to escape, she could really hurt herself or tangle up in the leash. If you can completely close her in to keep her safe, you will be okay. When we have our cats in open strollers, we keep a tight grip on their leashes. We also kept each zipped into the strollers for about a month or so each, until they understood that the strollers were their safe spots.

Good luck with your new adventures!

@Cleopatra Beers my plan is to attach the mesh, but I wasn't wrecking the stroller and the mesh if she hated it lol. So will take her a few more times then convert if she likes it. Plan is to use buttons of Velcro to shut it. Maybe a zipper. But I think buttons and Velcro will be the easiest.

our pet stroller has a short lead attached inside that you clip onto the callar or harness it only sticks up about 8-10 inches maybe.

Astrid is looking happy in her stroller! Even on the yelling pic I imagine her screaming "not to the park, I want to go to the zoo!!"

Velcro would probably be best to attach mesh. The stuff that has a sticky back (doesn't need sewing) is pretty strong, and if you use enough of it, she could stand on the mesh and it won't give way. I think she will really love to go places in it!

I am laughing myself silly at her screaming face. That is one of the best screaming Sphynx faces ever. The stroller is quite nice. Keeping my fingers crossed that things go well.
