dorasdaddy, you're beginning to sound like a broken record. Not every post warrants chastising the person for not searching. Yes many questions asked have been asked a zillion times already but this particular question is not one of them.
I have different carriers that I use depending on the circumstance.
For out of town travel, I use the same as silvercat.
This is a large carrier that provides plenty of room to move around in. It easily buckles into the vehicle and leaves the front door that it can be opened without having to unbuckle. This carrier will also fit a standard bucket wheel if the front frame bar is removed and the wheel lowered a slight bit. Doing this allows the top of the carrier to be closed. This carrier will work as a temporary cage. On occasion, I have taken one to the vet in that carrier but it is rather heavy.
For most vet trips and short around town trips I use this one. http://www.petsmart.com/product/zoom/in ... Id=3073395 It is perfect for vet trips as it can be opened from the top at either side or it can be removed completely. If the hedgehog has needed surgery, she can be put right into that carrier and then put into the kennel at the vets and the vet and techs can easily check on her through the open top.
I also have many soft sided carries that I use for walking around with the hedgie. Again it depends on the circumstances which one I use. Of course for me having on average 25-40 hedgies, I need many carriers so I can be overly indulgent. :lol: I like to have a supply of carriers in case we ever had to get them all out of the house for any reason.
I'm going to make this thread a sticky.
