Description
The Trixie Be Eco Recycled Carrier Giona is a sturdy, safe, and environmentally friendly pet carrier for dogs and cats, available in several sizes. This carrier is designed for both short car trips and international flights and is accepted by many airlines thanks to the included IATA kit. With this carrier, you're making a conscious choice: the plastic is largely recycled, without compromising on sturdiness, comfort, or safety for your pet.
The carrier is available in various sizes, so you can always choose a size that suits the dimensions and breed of your dog or cat. Thanks to the robust finish, the sturdy metal door with lockable snap fasteners and the expansion possibilities (such as a separately available wheel set), this pet carrier is ideal for anyone who wants to travel with a pet in a comfortable, safe and responsible way.
Available sizes and suitable dog breeds
Choosing the right size is crucial for the comfort and safety of your dog or cat. The crate should offer enough space so that your pet can stand upright, lie down in a natural position, and turn around easily. Below you will find an overview of the available sizes, with example breeds for a better estimate.

Please note: carefully measure your dog or cat from the tip of the nose to the base of the tail (not including the tail) and from the ground to the crown of the head. For air travel, it's wise to choose a size with extra space. If you're unsure, choose a larger size.
Smart design for comfort and ease of use.
The Giona pet carrier is designed with both the animal and the owner in mind. The robust plastic shell provides a safe, stable environment for your dog or cat during travel. The metal mesh door closes with two sturdy, lockable snap fasteners, making escape impossible. The handle on top makes the carrier easy to lift or pull, especially when combined with the separately available wheels (Trixie item 39899). This eliminates the need for lugging, even at busy airports or train stations.
Inside, the floor is flat and easy to clean, ideal for accidents on the road or after a long journey. The meshwork at the front ensures sufficient ventilation and a good view of the outside world, which can reduce stress in some animals.
Traveling by plane or car
The Trixie Giona transport box comes standard with an IATA kit, meaning it meets the requirements of most airlines. This includes the correct locking mechanisms, ventilation openings, and sufficient space for the animal. However, specific requirements may vary between airlines. Therefore, always contact your airline beforehand to ensure your box will be accepted.
This carrier is also perfect for car holidays or trips to the vet, for example. Thanks to its sturdy construction and the possibility of securing the box, you ensure a safe and stable journey. During the trip, always make sure your dog or cat has access to water, especially in warm temperatures or during long journeys. A handy solution is a special travel water bottle with a leak-proof spout, so you don't have to take along bowls that could spill.
