Trixie wicker basket with metal door. Ideal for short journeys and trips to the vet. Also a lovely place to snuggle up
The Trixie Wicker Cat Basket is a classic wicker basket that can be used as both a cosy den and a secure transportbox for your cat. The natural material makes this den an inviting and warm little hiding place where your cat can feel safe and snuggly. Simply remove the metal barred door, place the den in your cat's favourite corner, and watch your cat fall in love with its new hiding place.
Ont he top of the Trixie Wicker Cat Basket is a practical and comfortable wicker carrying handle, making this a perfect way of transporting your cat on trips to the vet, moving house, or just going on an adventure together. The barred door closes off the front of the den securely and is fastened with a wooden toggle. Your pet will be safe and secure inside, and the fastening is easy to open again when you reach your destination.
The carrier arrived yesterday . I used it today and the handle broke off while I walked to the car in the garden. When I returned from the vets the door fell open so the toggle that holds the door in place is useless. I was lucky I was home by this stage or my cat would have escaped and ran. That would have been a nightmare . Also my cat was tearing at the wicker when she was in the carrier and it is a very weak type of wicker . Zooplus were very understanding and issued a refund

Flawlessly beautiful cat basket. Spacious and unique. Doubles up perfectly as a comfortable bed and carrier and is easy to lift and transport. Exquisite design features and in the era of the beige, the bland and the boring, this wicker wonder will effortlessly grace any home with its vintage feel. So pleased with this purchase!

I had one and have recently bought a second of there wicker baskets. My cats are very happy travelling in them and even use them as dens around the house. I highly recommend them to any cat owner.

Great basket
Having had a gift of one of these wicker baskets I decided to buy a second when my Birmans got bigger. There is plenty of room for two large cats but the boy wanted to sit on his sister so a second was a good idea. The bakrt is excellent it is airy and large and people stop and ask where it was bought. It does naturally need a cushion of blanket in the bottom but then so does any other carrier.. Good this is that his in big enough. A bonus is that as it looks good it can be left out as a den

Purrfect
This product is excellent. I had one as a gift and now that my two Birman cats have got bigger I decided to get a second one. I HD the first one for many years and it is still in great condition. The wicker allows the cat to get fresh air. The basket does need some sort of blanket or cushion as none is supplied. I have put foam in the base and fleece vet bedding on top. It makes a lovely comfortable carrier for the cat one of my baskets has become a favourite resting place for my female cat away

Perfect!
I ordered this with the intention of using it for longer car journeys, as the carrier we had already was a little small. As soon as i got it home BamBam was straight in there, plenty of room for him to stand, sit and move around, even with a bath towel folded up as a bed- it's perfect! He's an average size cat, around 4.5kg, not worried about the security of the door either as the pin was stiff to get out. Not tried it yet in the car but i'm sure it will be fine!

Good sturdy basket, with one flaw
Sturdy carrier with plenty of space. We use it as a bed as well as a carrier, and the two cats fit in with room to spare. It's easy to carry around too. My only issue with this carrier is that the grate can't be removed entirely, only opened. This makes it awkward to put the basket in some places as the door is in the way. My cats have also been chewing on the leather strap and peg that secure the grate shut, and it's only a matter of time before they're broken, which will make the door useless.

Wonderful value
Very spacious and sturdy also the door is very tough metal with a gate piece that fits very snuggly over the end before you put the toggle in. A few sharp ends which you would expect being wicker, but easily clipped shorter, vet bedding or a pet cushion would solve any other sharp bits. Really great value, it will last for years....the cats and I are thrilled

Super
This Wicker Basket is perfect.
I use it 24/7 as a sleeping place, so I have two in one. It's pretty and the cats love it. Even after a trip to the vet, they still like it don't see it as a trap.
It's very spacious too

Brilliant product
I have three cats, one of them was terrified of travelling and proceeded to break out of every kind of carrier I got (including a quiet expensive one belonging to my sister) until I got this one. They are now way more relaxed and the trips to the vet aren't half as bad.

Excellent for cat transport and as a bed
We used this basket to pick up our 2 kittens. Although it is excellent as a carrier (both cats ready curl up in there together despite it being a little tight for them now), my cats also use it as a bed / hidey hole and it is looks great in the corner of my lounge. No other bed I have bought them has gotten so much use. When we do go to the vet, both cats willing walk into the basket when I call them.

Brilliant
We purchased one of these some time ago and we have used for various cats at various ages. It's amazing. We have put two kittens in there and we have put an adult cat in it. Its safe, secure and very easy to use.
Its a bargain at the price and I would say very good value. Very safe. Go on grab a bargain.

Brilliant product and very stylish
I bought this to transport our cat to the vets and also as a hiding space in the house. I loved the classic look of it as opposed to the modern plastic carriers available. It's very sturdy, our cat, who is quite small-framed, has lots of room in it, so I'd be confident that it fits a larger cat as well. Word of warning, not really suitable for young kittens, as we had a near escape in the car before! The wire grate at the front is quite spacious and before we knew it the little tyke had her head through it!! Other than that perfect for transport a grown cat and we always get comments on how lovely it looks at the vet's.

Excellent!
Have been looking for a new transporter for my cat as he hates his current crate. Found this, loved the look of it and as he's very partial to his igloo shaped bed thought it would be ideal. I unpacked it less than an hour ago and he is now curled up asleep in it! Fingers crossed he still loves it when it's time to visit the vet!

Perfect transporter
This is the perfect transporter for my two 8 month old Siamese cats. I used to have problems getting my previous cat to go into the plastic boxes, but they love this. They sleep in it a lot, so serves 2 purposes, and it's big enough for the 2 of them. I put a cushion at the bottom and a blanket, you definitely need that as it's a bit spikey otherwise. Looks nice too.

Really good for cats and dogs
I originally bought this as a cat carrier for our two cats, who both fot in together very nicely. It was ideal for that purpose. Now we have a puppy and it's great for transporting him too, he also sleeps in it and settles down really comfortably in it (wih the addition of a cushion and blanket). It's one of the most useful items Ive bought and with 2 cats and 2 dogs Ive bought quite a lot of stuff!

Lovely looker
Within fifteen minutes of this arriving my cat Oliver was inside, curled up fast asleep. I have high hopes of not having any trouble getting him to the vets in future!
