Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for supporting a pet along trapezii and behind a neck of a user. In one implementation, a core assembly of a bolster has a middle section disposed between a first end section and a second end section, and the middle section positionable behind the neck of the user. An elongated body of the core assembly is positionable along the trapezii of the user in a horizontal orientation. The elongated body extends continuously from the first end to the second end. A padded body of the core assembly extends about the elongated body. A cover is engaged to the core assembly. A securing assembly has a first strap connected to the first end section and a second strap connected to the second end section. The core assembly is releasably securable to the user in the horizontal orientation using the securing assembly.

A pet carrying backpack is disclosed herein. The pet carrying backpack includes a backpack body having a bottom panel, a front panel, a rear panel, a right-side panel, and a left-side panel that collectively form a pocket for a pet to sit in. Shoulder straps are connected to and extend from the front panel to allow a person to carry the pet carrying backpack on their torso. A protrusion extends from a top side of the rear panel that supports the upper body of a pet. A left and a right strap extend from such protrusion, each strap having a securing mechanism such as a buckle connected on one end. The left strap wraps over a pet's left shoulder, and the right strap wraps over a pet's right shoulder, both straps connecting to a set of receptacles of a securing mechanism located on or extended from the front panel.

The invention comprises a pet carrier that can be used on the front or back of the pet owner’s body and is designed for both durability and comfort. Clear mesh panels allow the pet to see out, and the entire padded bottom panel is expandable by unzipping the panel which then expands the height of the carrier to allow for more room. The bottom widens to 8.5 cm, which is a full 5 cm difference.

An apparatus for transporting an animal is provided. The apparatus includes a body having a plurality of panels that are operative to transition between a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the panels define a cavity that is configured to contain an animal. In the open position, the panels define a bed mat.

A pet carrier-backpack for carrying small to medium sized pets, with abundant space, sun protection, ventilation, support, and comfort, with the emphasis being the placement of air ventilation and the shade structure that offers maximum functionality. My soft sided pet carrier backpack is a portable home for the pet with an abundance of strategic ventilation and space, with a removable/expandible shade for the pets' sun protection. My invention functions as a car seat also and offers the option of choosing between two head holes so the pet can be zipped all the way in the pet carrier and enclosed, laying down, or having its head out of the backpack, while its body is completely enclosed. There is a removable-sturdy, fur bed that detaches from the bag to allow your pet to lay on it anywhere you place it. The circular air vents on the front face of the pet carrier as well as the air vents on the left and right sides of the invention, create discrete as well as non-discrete usage options for experience, while maximizing air flow.

An animal enclosure includes a kennel body including a rotational molded wall formed from a plastic material. The kennel body defines an interior space shaped to accommodate one or more animals, and defines a door opening shaped to allow the animal to enter and exit the kennel body. A hoop-shaped door frame is disposed on the kennel body proximate the door opening. A door is disposed on the door frame, and the door is pivotally moveable relative to the door frame between an open position and a closed position. A latch is disposed on the door. A drain recess is defined in the rear wall of the kennel body, and a removable drain plug may be positioned in the drain recess. A moat is defined in the kennel body floor to collect water off the floor of the kennel body.

A collapsible pet carrier is lightweight and folds into an integral, flat sewn-in pocket for storage. The collapsible pet carrier includes an internal leash which safely secures a pet in place within the carrier while not unduly restricted the movement of the pet within the pet carrier during transport of the pet. The collapsible pet carrier includes an adjustable shoulder strap which can be worn cross body by the user so that the pet carrier will not slip from the body of the user. A screened ventilation panel moderates the internal air temperature of the pet carrier bag. The pet carrier is provided with a soft, rectangular shape during use, which minimizes the chances of a pet escaping or slipping out therefrom.

A thermal support for animals and method of use thereof is provided. The thermal support comprises a first portion, a strap portion, and a thermal insert. The first portion comprises a flexible fabric configured to conform to at least a portion of the animal. The first portion comprises an opening configured to receive the animal and a shape configured to support the animal when received by the opening. The first portion comprises a pocket configured to contact the animal when received by the opening. The strap portion is configured to enable lifting of the first portion. The thermal insert is configured to be heated and/or cooled. The thermal insert is removably positioned in the pocket of the first portion such that the thermal insert can transfer heat to or from the animal when received by the opening and when heated and/or cooled.
