Bring your pet while riding your bike with trailer and backpack in one

For fur parents that have bikes and need to bring their babies with them outside, having somewhere to place their pet safely and conveniently can sometimes be a challenge. Fortunately, a lot of pet-related brands have been coming up with different products to make life easier for both the owner and the pet. And we’ll probably be seeing even more innovations as they have realized there is a huge market out there for pet owners willing to spend money on their precious babies.

Designer: Waggin

Waggin is a new pet product company that wants to create products that are “sleek and innovative” and for their hero product they came up with Waggin G1, a pet bike trailer and backpack in one. Initially, the trailer is attached to the backpack so it’s easy to assemble and disassemble and carry it around. At the same time, there is storage space in the backpack so you can put stuff in either for your pet or for yourself. It can fit in snacks and toys for your pet and even a laptop and maybe some books and notebooks that you will need for your outing.

The trailer is easy (and safe) to attach to your bike so both of you can travel in comfort and in style. It uses lightweight materials including a rip proof mesh, performance nylon, and a security D-Ring to securely attach it to your bike. It has two entrances, a sunroof, a padded bed, and a safety clip so your pet will feel right at home even as you’re traveling. It is only able to accommodate small to medium sized pets so you may have to look for alternatives if you have a large fur baby.

The backpack also has padded straps and a backpack pad so you will feel comfortable carrying it around while you’re biking, with the pet trailer trailing at the back. It’s a pretty innovative product that makes it convenient to have daily outings with your dog or cat when you’re feeling bored working from home and your babies need some outdoor activity.

This survival kit takes care of you and your pet during emergencies!

With climate change rearing its ugly head and sending shockwaves throughout the world, our planet has been experiencing a lot of changes. Natural disasters like floods, earthquakes, or even the recent Australian bushfires are beginning to gaining frequency. We’ve been trained to be prepared for such situations, following drills and guidelines, maintaining survival kits for when they’re needed, and more. However, in such strenuous moments, what becomes of our furry friends? Our pets are members of our family, and preparing for their safety during such times is essential. Almost 32% of pets find themselves as strays on the street during such disasters, and pet mortality is supposed to be 40%. For such life-threatening situations, designer Ching Lin Tsai designed Escapet. Escapet is an escape bag, that aims to look after you and your pet’s needs during emergencies.

Escapet is a winner of the Red Dot Award for the year 2019.

Designer: Ching Lin Tsai

Made from Tetoron, an abrasion-resistant, and lightweight polyester fiber, Escapet combines a survival tool kit, and a pet carrier to create a bag equipped to deal with extreme situations. The bag consists of two components, the pet carrier, and the survival kit. Both can be separated and used individually if required.

The survival kit consists of the bare essentials such as water, food, a first aid kit, life-saving, and hygiene tools, and also has sufficient space for your personal belongings.

The second component is the pet carrier, easy-to-fold, and easy-to-store, you can slip your pet into it. It has been equipped with a pocket, which when rolled down, exposes a mesh screen, allowing your pet to stay connected with you and the rest of the world.

The carrier bag and survival kit can be combined together to create a piece of pet furniture, on which your pet can sit and lounge about. In its combined state, Escapet is meant to be carried like a backpack, with your pet and the things you need to survive a high-risk situation, all packed in! The neon orange zipper is meant to increase the chances of being spotted and rescued. However, the detachable pet carrier bag also has functionality in our daily lives, making Escapet a unique design that serves you perfectly during emergencies and even on an ordinary day!

 

A carrier bag for your pets to avoid claustrophobia!

You know when it’s time to take your pet for a check-up to the vet, and you pop them into a pet carrier bag, only for them to howl and screech the entire way, while you cover your face in shame? Yeah, every pet owner has been there and done that. Seems like product designer Sunghoon Park had his fair share of such experiences because he ended up designing ‘The Hoonico Moomoo Bag’. The Moomoo Bag promises to solve the biggest problem you encounter every time you try to take your pet somewhere, ‘How to get them to just relax and stop whining?’ It seems like an ordinary shoulder bag with an adjustable strap, but it has a surprise up its sleeve! Park added a little circular window to the bag!

Designer: Sunghoon Park

One end of the Moomoo Bag features an open patch through which your pet can wiggle their heads out. A little peeking hole for them to look out at the world, and stay connected with you, without feeling claustrophobic and anxious in the carrier bag. Enclosed carrier bags tend to make our furry friends antsy and nervous, but Moomoo’s handy pocket lets your pets stick their head and neck out, making them feel at ease. A mesh cover can be added to the pocket if your pet is a little naughty and might sneakily escape.

Perfect for carrying your pets to and fro locations, the Moomoo Bag can be pretty functional at home too! It also serves as a cushion for your pets to relax on.

Simply wrap the adjustable strap around the body of the bag, and clip it on to the latch at the other end. Play around with the bag to create the perfect form for a cushion, and watch as your pet happily lounges about on it.

Available in quirky color combinations such as Indie Pink and Dark Navy, Olive and Light Gray, etc, The Moomoo Bag will make traveling a fun experience for your pet!

Doubling as a backpack, travel carrier and a bed, this is no ordinary pet carrier bag!

Transporting your beloved pet from one location to another can be a handful! Of course, that’s where pet carriers come into the picture. However, not all pet carriers are the most comfortable nor the most efficient medium of transportation. Some can be difficult to carry, whereas others aren’t comfy enough for our pets to snuggle into. Sunghoon Park’s ‘Carrio’ on the other hand is quite versatile and modular as well! At first glance, it may look like an ordinary pet carrier, but once you dwell deeper, it has a bit of a surprise in store for you. At home, Carrio can be used as a bed or a quaint resting spot for your pet, a personal area for your pet to laze around in after a long day of play. When it comes to functioning as a carrier, it provides two modules, owing to two types of straps that can be customized. It can be used as a carrier backpack, slip it onto your shoulders effortlessly and take your pet alongside you wherever you please. Put on the second pair of straps, and it can be used as a travel carrier bag! You can hold it horizontally like a duffle bag, apt for your larger furry friends. Since the carrier also functions as the bed the pets rest in at home, it’s something they grow accustomed to. It begins to feel familiar to them, relieving their stress, and heading out of the house doesn’t seem like an ordeal anymore!

Available in a variety of fun colors from blue to beige, Carrio is a multifunctional and trendy alternative to your usual pet carrier bag. As the owner of two perfect Persian cats myself, this is probably one of the handiest creations I’ve come across!
