        I am looking for a carrier that has a front door and a door that opens on the top.  It needs to be a carrier that can hold two 5lb bunnies.  I currently have one that is loaned to me but it doesn’t have an open top.  I can’t find one ANYWHERE not one big enough anyway.  =(  

        I haven’t checked petco or petsmart (the actual stores) yet…just online..Anyone know of a place where I can buy a good sized carrier with two doors??

          In the Los Angeles area, a small chain called Centinela Feed use to have a couple of carriers that had front and top doors. I have not seen them the last couple of times I have been there, but if you are close it might be worth asking.

            I got mine at petco. Mine is the dog whisperer series, and they have several sizes. Good carriers

              My carrier has a front door and if I lift a few latches, the top comes off. Most carriers in stores here do that, if that is an option.

                I found my carrier in PetSmart or PetCo (can’t remember which one). They carried a couple different carriers with two doors, so it shouldn’t be too hard to find.

                  I found mine in the cat section at Petsmart – I don’t think they make my particular model anymore but it’s designed for cats (the 2 door carrier). They usually have 2 sizes.

                  Mine are Petmate carriers.

                    I’ve been eyeing this one and plan to pick it up. It has both a top and front door. What I really like about it is the compartment in the front for food. http://www.petco.com/product/119194/Hagen-Catit-Design-Cabrio-Cat-Carrier.aspx

                        I have the same one Skipper’s Mama has, the Cabrio, and I got it at Petsmart. They had it on sale, way up high on a shelf, so be sure to look around.
                        I love it, and my vet thinks it’s space-age cool.

                        I’d highly recommend it, but you might have to find it online now and order it from somewhere.

                          Ooo, just clicked SM’s link and it is at Petco on sale, with free shipping on orders over $49. It’s $55, so consider ordering because it’s the shipping of the heavy carrier that adds up in price. That’s about what I paid for mine. If you don’t like it, you can always return it to your nearest Petco in person.

                            It is a cool looking carrier but I wonder if it will comfortably hold 2 midsize rabbits? I think you’d have to see it in person to try it on for size.

                              Exactly what I was thinking.  I am going to go to petco and petsmart next week to see what they have in stock.

                                I’ve seen this 2 door style at Drs. Foster and Smith and some other online sites. The medium size (the largest one they have) is a little bit bigger than the dimensions of the Cabrio that was mentioned. The dimensions are 24″ x 16″ x 14.5″. I think that would be large enough for 2 five pound rabbits. It’s on sale right now and you would get free shipping. I have a smaller top opening carrier, but I’ve only had one rabbit in it at a time.

                                  It’s quite roomy for one. Two would be a cozy fit side by side. Kind of like a pair of slippers. Depends on the size of your bunnies, I guess. (It would hold 14 of Monkeybun’s Monkey, LOL) I hope you find one to check it out.

                                    I went to petco and found a perfect carrier! It’s so neat. I love it. Very spacious for two buns too. =)

                                    Thanks for all the help!

                                      I’m glad you found one – a good carrier is a great investment (in my opinion).

                                        I agree. It’s a must have thing if you have buns!

                                          What is the type of carrier you decided to go with? =]
