So Frank got his new bag today! I have been searching and searching for the perfect one and considered making my own. But after much debate I decided to buy this bag off Ebay. We both like it a lot but still have to spend more quality time testing it out. I took a bunch of photo's so I could show everyone.




When I first placed Frank in it he snuggled down even though I hadn't even closed it. I closed up the top and slung it over my shoulder for a quick stroll around the apartment. He didn't put up any fuss or fight.

So about the bag: It's got space for my stuff (keys, cellphone, small wallet etc) in the back pocket which was a must for me.
It's got plenty of ventilation for Frank - a vent on both sides and one up top. He won't be overly exposed to the sun though which is good.
It has a little leash / harness attachment that keeps him inside the bag.
Although it's easiest to place him in the top of the bag, one whole side of the mesh zipps totally down and zips up securely also.
The one thing I do have a bit of reservation on is the strap. It's not very thick so I hope it doesn't dig in to my shoulder after awhile and cause discomfort.

So I'm really excited to test it out! Frank and I are going to have to go for short trips around the apartment building to get used to it until the weather gets warmer.

What a great bag! Frankie will LOVE it. Now he can go everywhere. Good to hear he just got into it and liked it. Stylish too.

Yeah it was also important that it be stylish and something that I liked to carry and wasn't so clearly a pet carrier. If I need to carry him on the bus or something (which isn't allowed) I didn't want it to be obvious.

So far it hit every need and want without spending upwards of $100 plus on a 'designer bag'. Oh and they have a bunch of other cool designs for the front of the bag.

Great bag, it looks very practical. I find it odd though that cats are not allowed on the bus, are dogs banned from busses where you live as well?

Yep all animals except a service animal are not allowed on the bus. If the bus driver doesn't notice him I'm sure it won't be a big deal.

Will he meow and make a big deal or will he chill out and enjoy his outing? Tell the bus driver he is your seeing eye cat.

Awesome! Yeah it's turning out pretty good. Frank and I did a stroll this evening around the apartment building. He was meowing almost the whole time but he fits just fine and comfy in there.
