Otherwise I just let him walk and pick him up if necessary. Holding him in my arms is more comfy than the bag, but then the trip takes twice as long because 15 people have to cuddle him. And if he walks, he starts doing tricks to impress the people so again it takes forever...
I did have a hard time finding a larger carrier that wasn't super wide. Generally the large size carriers look like suitcases, which isn't what I needed. But I found one! |
Yes, I was sort of thinking she's getting into the not carriable (is that a word? lol) size. I've been looking at the hobbo; but, no way would she fit in the ones I've seen online. And, the larger ones do "look like suitcases". Where did you get yours'? And, "yes", they do attract far too much attention when carried in our arms. I don't want to 'sneak' her in food places; but, someplaces I'd like to take her and not draw so much attention.
