Smiling Paws Pets’ Expandable Pet Carrier Giveaway
I’m not a gear or gadget person and I don’t always follow the latest trends in pet products. It takes a lot to WOW me - but the Expandable Soft-Sided Pet Carrier by Smiling Paws Pets definitely WOWED me. This carrier is super cool and fun and my new favorite pet find. So much so, that I can’t stop talking (over-sharing) with cat friends about how they really need to get one of these Smiling Paws Pets carriers – it’s that amazing, the cat’s meow!

Smiling Paws Pets is on a mission to make life easier for pets and their people. They create high-end, quality cat and dog products that provide simple solutions to everyday pet issues. Currently, they make cat litter mats, odor and stain eliminators, pet beds, and expandable carriers.
Smiling Paws Pets generously sent us their Expandable Soft-Sided Carrier for Rosie to try. Rosie is petite so we went with the smaller size, which is safe for pets up to 15 pounds. The carrier is approved for airline travel and can also be strapped into a car seatbelt for safe road trips. It’s lightweight, waterproof and the wireframe can be squeezed in an inch to conform to small spaces. The mesh sides are also great for airflow.
The coolest part is that is that the carrier expands four different ways for longer trips when your cat or small dog needs a little extra legroom. It transforms from carrier to kitty playhouse tent in seconds (only its much easier and faster to assemble than human tents). This carrier also folds flat and comes with a bag for easy storage. Watch the video for the full DIY kitty playhouse experience.
Why We Love Smiling Paws Pets' Expandable Carrier
1. It’s versatility. Use it as a standard carrier or expand on all four sides for extra space and stretching room.
2. It’s easy to assemble. Emphasis on the easy. It practically assembles itself.
3. It’s a space saver. Folds flat and fits nicely in a small bag, perfect for space challenged pet owners.
Most importantly, Rosie LOVES her new Smiling Paws Pets Expandable Soft-Sided Carrier. We have been leaving it fully expanded near the heat vent and she pretty much hangs out in it all day long. It’s like her very own kitty clubhouse – no dogs, bunnies or humans allowed.
Rosie is strictly an indoor cat. However, we might try setting up the carrier in the backyard (in warmer months) so she can enjoy a summer breeze and some bird and squirrel watching safely from her very own screened in porch.
Smiling Paws Pets has generously offered to give one carrier away to a lucky reader. Purchase the carrier through their website using the code TheDailyPip15 now through March 11 to receive 15% off. To learn more about Smiling Paws Pets, please follow them on Facebook, Pinterest, and Instagram.

We need a new carrier to get the cats to the vet. The carriers are only out the day before they go to the vet, but they do always nap in them.

Er, do they by any chance do a pet carrier that would enable a long legged 20lb wire fox terrier to sneak onto an airplane as hand luggage…..?

BOL = we think we might be a little bit oversized for that carrier. But it sure looks like it is well-made. Some kitty or smaller pup will love it.Woos – Lightning, Misty, and Timber

That's a really cool carrier! We like the idea of being able to expand the space inside once you get to your destination. Cupcake would really enjoy that kind of versatility for her outings.

This would come in handy when my kitty Mango is on set. We generally have to bring a dog play pen for holding and carry him in the other room to set. This would help bring him to set and be holding on set for short term.
