So as I searched for the perfect vessel, I also took into consideration room for bedding and a heat pad. I didn't want anything too large (or I would just go ahead and use the old igloo), didn't want anything with lots of air holes, and preferred something flat on top so the cats could have an additional tier to lounge on. As with the igloo, we'd be keeping this up on a table.
I looked at a lot of options- using a covered litter box if I could find one large enough, other containers.. basically wanted a large box that was smaller than the igloo but more sturdy than a cardboard box. It dawn on me to look at crates of this style. Even that took awhile to figure out, as there are many styles and most weren't what I needed- and were either too big or too small. SO, I was pleased when I found this one. The dimensions seemed right, the placement and size of the air holes seemed appropriate to our needs, and the top is pretty much flat.
I put it together quickly. It comes with "live animal" stickers on it already along with another one. It also comes with a food/water holder. I don't need anything of that. I didn't even put the door on, but it would be super easy to put it on if the need arises. I can cover the air holes when it gets too cold by placing a towel over top and letting excess dangle down. The slats from the air holes will be perfect for use with a low wattage heating pad. We have a plug near table where this is set up, and I can likely figure out a way to fish the cord through, if not , then just out the main opening will work.
If at some point this is no longer needed, then it will make a good bed for the indoor cats, or as a carrier for vet trips- if you have strength to carry this size as well as have room in vehicle. I have never air traveled with a pet, so I can't comment on how well it would stand up to those needs. I did notice that it has extra holes to run zip ties through for added security. This is explained in the short, easy directions.
28" L X 20.5" W X 21.5"H is large enough to accommodate a couple of cats, or a smallish dog.
My pics are from after just setting it up. I have more to add to it, but at least you can see what it looks like once it is put together (minus the door).

Right out of the box, the sturdiness of the Sky Kennel was evident. Made with high-quality materials, it promised durability and security. The 36-inch size was spacious, allowing my medium-sized dog to move around comfortably, lie down, and even stretch a bit.
The ventilation on all sides is a thoughtful feature. It ensured a steady flow of fresh air, keeping the interior cool and preventing any feelings of claustrophobia. The secure latch mechanism gave me peace of mind, knowing that my pet would remain safely inside throughout the journey.
One feature I particularly appreciated was the clip-on bowls for food and water. It allowed me to ensure my pet stayed hydrated and fed during transit without having to open the kennel. The small storage compartment on top was handy for keeping a leash, some treats, and other essentials.
Setting up the kennel was straightforward, and the included "Live Animal" stickers were a useful addition, ensuring that handlers were aware of the precious cargo inside.
During our journey, the Sky Kennel lived up to its promise. My pet seemed calm and comfortable, and the kennel held up well, showing no signs of wear or damage.
In conclusion, the Petmate Sky Kennel Pet Carrier is more than just a transport crate; it's a safe haven for your pet during travels. It offers a blend of comfort, security, and convenience that both pets and their owners will appreciate. If you're planning to travel with your furry friend, this kennel is a top choice. It ensures that your pet's journey is as smooth and stress-free as yours!
We have a 120 pound Mastiff, She fits in this kennel nicely and prefers sleeping in there vs. outside of the kennel on her dog bed. The kennel is very sturdy and is easy to clean. It was a snap to put together after we got the door aligned.
I would recommend this kennel for large dogs. We are very happy with it and so is our pooch!

However, I was in a bind and decided to keep the kennel. Sure enough after the flight from FRA-MSP when I took Rexy out there was a hairline crack in the middle of the bottom and soon thereafter the corner broke off on its left side, see pictures. Very disappointing for a kennel that expensive.

Reviewed in France on November 11, 2023
The plastic construction seems to be decent, however the door is absolutely not safe. It took my shepherd (who is NOT an escape artist and is crate trained) all but 5 minutes to pull in the door when he decided he didn’t like this crate.
It’s like there was absolutely no resistance in the flimsy metal bars. The bars are now jammed and can’t be set back in and I’ll be stuck throwing out $300 or trying to find a different door that fits.
Imagine travelling with your dog and this happens on the tarmac or inside the cabin or airport and your dog gets out unsupervised. You could potentially have a dead dog on your hands and catch the blame for it too… if I could give -5 stars I would. Incredibly disappointing.
Oh also, my return window lapsed yesterday and the company refuses to acknowledge any safety issues.
I have travelled with dogs before (with size 500 crates and never had problems) and figured I’d give this one a whirl since my dog is now fully grown.
Good thing I tried him in it before the flight, but now have to try and find a new crate without spending an arm and a leg for express shipping.
Would definitely not recommend this crate to anyone if you value your dogs safety.
