It's Not Just a Car Seat or a Suitcase . . . It's Both!
Road trip! This ordinary-looking suitcase has a secret pop-up compartment on top turning it into a perfect car seat for your lil pet. Either use the three-sided mesh feature to keep kitties secure (and the bugs out) or roll down the top and front to secure a pup with a fresh air peek out.

Seat Belt Plus This Product Equals Safe Car Trips
Not everyone's lucky enough to have a fabulously pet-friendly SUV or super-sized wagon with room for crates in the back. So imagine difficult travel with crates precariously balancing behind you or coaxing a dog to stay strapped into a belt, sitting back on the seat. Doesn't sound like my idea of a good time.If this sounds all too familiar and not too fun, banish uncomfortable car rides and check out the innovative Seat Extender ($80).
Pampered Pals: Doggies Stylin' Car Seat
North spent all of his early life in New York City, accompanying me legally (and quasi-legally) on many adventures in one of his seven dog bags. We traveled on buses, subways, ferries, and airplanes but, for nearly four years, his only car experience involved taxicabs. When we moved to California last August and got a car, I invested in a monogrammed car pet seat from Brookstone (from $89.95).
Let Dogs Take a Backseat
Road trip! If you're hitting the mean streets for a trip this (long) weekend, don't forget a safe spot for your pet. As cute as it is to have him ride shotgun, or in your lap, I don't recommend it.
Flashback to 2005: Where Is the Honda Dog Car?
Back in 2005, Honda featured a minivan that was made for you and your best friends — furry and non-furry alike. With passenger seating for up to six people, you'd think there would be plenty of room for Fido to ride along without any problems. But Honda thought that having an abundance of room wasn't enough.
Quick Tip Before Buckling Up . . .
Whether your furry friend rides in a belt harness or a car seat while on road trips, I wanted to point out a quick tip for safety. Even if you prefer collars for walking, don't clip these to a seat belt or car seat attachment.
Personally, I don't believe in traveling with an unsecured pet period and, under no circumstances, should you drive around with a restraining device attached to your dog's collar.
Marsupack Packs Tiny Pets For All Kinds of Trips
Lil pets, I didn't forget about you! Now I know it's not the most stylish, but compared to the small carrier alternatives, it's pretty nifty. After all, dogs and cats have a variety of crave worthy totes that look like purses, but tiny pets often have those hard plastic cases only.
New Product Alert! Quadro Stroller
Available in April '09, this sleek stroller looks like something I should be seeing on lilsugar! The Quadro's a great way to transport cats or elderly pups that don't really care for leash time. Well, it's surely super sleek to say the least, and there are several "pod" options to go along with it .
Pampered Pals: Zip Line Dog Car Harnesses
I can't stress enough the need of securing a pet during car travel but I know many people don't have a crate or belt to strap in a large pooch. So that's where the Zip Line Dog Car Harness ($40) comes in. This new product from Brookstone (makers of North's seat) will let your pooch roam freely in the backseat or rear of an SUV but still securely holds him in case of sudden stops.
