Your Cat Will Travel In Style and Safety With The Sleepypod Mobile Pet Bed (And A Giveaway!)

Going to the vet is never easy for my cats – or me! Getting Lola and Lexy into their carriers is a trying experience for all three of us, not to mention exiting the carriers when it’s time for them to be examined. Lola will (usually) come out willingly and greet everyone, but not Lexy. When it’s her turn to be examined I have to dismantle the carrier, and then put it back together before she can go back in. By the time our vet visit is over all three of us are ready for a nap! 

I had been eyeing the Sleepypod Mobile Pet Bed for some time and when I had the opportunity to partner with Sleepypod for a review, this cat mom was happy! 

Hey! That cat looks like me! 

The Sleepypod Mobile Pet Bed is three products in one. It’s a carrier, a safe car seat, and a bed.  I love this because Lexy can travel to the vet in the comfort of one of her favorite beds with all the smells of home. It’s familiar to her, so it reduces her stress. (And mine!) 

Getting ready for our trip to the vet was easier than ever. All I had to do was zip the dome onto the base, put her in, and then zip the top of the dome closed. 1.. 2.. 3! Now that was something that has never happened in the seven years Lexy and I have been together. 

"Why do I get the feeling I'm going somewhere?"

No more dismantling the carrier to get her out! All I have to do is unzip the top of the dome so I can reach in and pick her up. 

"I'm in the middle of a nap, here. Can you come back later?"

When it was time to go home I just dropped her right back in closed it up.

Sleepypod recommends introducing your pet to the carrier before you go on your first adventure. I unzipped the dome and placed the base in one of Lexy’s favorite sleeping places. If there’s one thing Lexy loves, it’s a comfy bed. She took to it immediately and started sleeping in it every night (and still does.) 

I really love how stylish this carrier is. I think it’s the perfect carrier for a city dweller to use to transport their cat anywhere.

I always worry about dropping the carrier when I’m walking from the car to the building, and because Lexy is a little heavy for me to carry (at almost 13 pounds) I’m frequently switching hands.The shoulder strap makes carrying her much easier and I don't worry about anything happening to the carrier. I live in a third-floor walk-up, and I’m always struggling on the steps, but thanks to the Sleepypod I'm able to manage much better.

When my boyfriend and I were waiting to cross the street, a woman walking by commented to her husband that she had never seen a carrier like this, and loved it. 

Let's talk about safety. Sleepypod devotes careful and caring attention to each detail in every product. Safety is Sleepypod’s top priority, and theSleepypod Mobile Pet Bed passed the Child Safety Seat Standard Collision Test. 




The best safety feature is the PPRS (Pet Passenger Restraint System). 

The PPRS Handilock evolved as a result of variances in test results by Sleepypod and the Center for Pet Safety. Sleepypod tested its Sleepypod mobile pet bed without the PPRS Handilock at two NHTSA contracted laboratories with success. The 15 pound crash test pet remained in the Sleepypod, on the test bench, for the duration of the test, and without rotation.

I'm nervous driving with my girls in the car because I want them to be safe. When I buckled Lexy in, I was more than happy with how secure she was. 

"I love how I can see the world from my new carrier!"

And when I compared her carrier next to Lola's, I realized how much safer and more secure she was. I'll definitely be looking into getting one for Lola. 

The Sleepypod Medium weighs 4.5 pounds, is 17" in diameter and is 13.5" high with the dome. (The bed is 6.5" tall).
