Yikes, those things look awful. I doubt very much any cat would prefer dangling like that with no solid surface under her feet, not to mention that thing strapped tight around her neck. No protection from other animals or germs flying around at the vet clinic in the waiting room either. No where to hide away from al the noise and confusion and fright.
Most cats could probably rip through that fabric with their claws, besides. Or if not rip through, their claws could certainly poke through and get stuck.
Totally agree with the above negative opinions, count me in. What a ridiculous design, it's like a 'trap' for crying out loud. I see no merit whatsoever in this contraption. It looks like something that someone who hates cats would 'design'.

I agree here, and feel I need to point out the obvious..... that bagging a cat (which is what you're really doing) that's docile & cooperative is one thing, but doing that with the majority of them who won't be so forgiving is a whole other matter. Personally I would rather do a quick grab and shove into a hard sided carrier, than try to put either of my girls in that bag. Can't see that ending well for either party.
To be fai rI didn't watch the vieoes (just a general policy I have not to watch videos linked to C-D for security reasons) but looking at the pictures.....what is the advantage supposed to be? I like the soft sided carriers witha stiff floor. The cats feel like they are someehat protected since their heads aren't exposed tot he world, and it is also more secure since they aren't going to be able to claw out or push out. Are these supposedly easier to get the cat in? I don't think that would be the case either. I don't get this one.
That contraption reminds of what I do to my cat when I have to administer medicine that requires her to be still. I use a pillowcase and secure the opening where her head is exposed.
For trips to the vet, etc., a plastic carrier is much more comfortable for her.
I bought a grooming bag to use on a cat having issues with bacteria at base of claws. Snug fit around kitty, zippers everywhere and velcro closing around the neck. I bagged her and hung the bag, took a look at one foot with her struggling because the feet were sore. But the push of her back feet in the bag caused the velcro closure to pop open and that action unzipped the main zipper. I agree with the others. Don't bag your kitty.
