I like the plastic crate because it's sturdy, but I just saw one that's
made
of sturdy fabric which is cheaper, and hangs over the shoulder. It's
nice
in colour, and because space is limited I can just fold it wherever I
want.

But I think maybe I should go with the crate because when I take Mico to
the
vet, they're gonna hafta sedate him to get him to co-operate, and it might
be easier to get a pill disguised as food through the crate bars, rather
than through the bag's netting. Suggestions anybody?

Thanks in advance,

I have both types at home. I don't drive so when I take both cats to the
vet at the same time, using two of the hard plastic carriers was impossible.
The soft carrier I have (Sherpa) cost a fortune - literally 5X what a plain
hard case costs! If you're going to be driving, the hard case might be
better. My Sherpa bag, since it's soft, does tend to sag while the cat is
inside. The cat doesn't seem to mind, but might feel more comfortable in
the hard case. Also, one of my cats loves to sleep in the hard case, so I
leave it out all the time.
