| Opinions needed on Kwigy-Bo Alex carrier I need to buy a new carrier because the one that I own collapsed on top of itself. If you own the Kwigy-Bo Alex carrier, how sturdy is it? Does it keep its shape pretty well. I'm hoping to get a new carrier this weekend, so if someone could give some advice, I would greatly appreciate it. I'm also considering a pet flys carrier. They look pretty sturdy.

| I have the "Alex" and just LOVE it. I did want it a little more sturdy, because Taz is 7.5lbs. I just cut down the board from another standard carrier I have and also used the cushion from it and put it in the "Alex". Taz has plenty of room and so do I for all of my things. I love how it looks like a purse and if he needs to be concealed, no problem. I was searching and searching for a carrier that looked like a purse and I lucked out on Ebay and only paid $34.00 plus shipping. (The person who sold it didn't know what they had). Obviously, no one else knew who was bidding on it. I almost changed my mind on it too, thinking it wasn't going to be big enough.

| Wow! What a great deal $34. You got really lucky. Do you forsee a problem with the top collapsing in the near future. That's what I'm worried about. I love the look of the Alex. I think they copied the design from Chanel's Cambon line. I'm hoping to be able to fit both of my babies in one carrier. I'm guessing I will need the large size.

| No I don't see a problem with the top, especially since I reinforced the bottom. It really holds it's shape well. I think mine is the large size and depending on the size of your 2 it possibly could hold both of them. Hope this helps. : I also think the "Pets Fly" carriers would not be big enough for 2. I have seen them in some pet stores and they didn't impress me.
