Troubleshooting
Pet is anxious or resistant to entering the crate.
Introduce the crate gradually. Leave the door open, place treats or toys inside, and never force your pet in. Start with short durations and gradually increase the time spent inside.
Lockable snap fasteners are difficult to close.
Ensure the two halves of the crate are perfectly aligned. Check for any debris obstructing the mechanism. If the issue persists, contact the manufacturer.
Crate feels unstable during transport.
Verify that all snap fasteners are fully engaged and locked. For vehicle transport, ensure the crate is properly secured using seatbelts or cargo restraints. If using wheels, ensure they are securely attached.
Airline rejected the crate despite IATA compliance claims.
Contact the airline directly to understand their specific requirements. Some airlines have stricter rules on door security (requiring bolts or extra ties) or specific dimension tolerances. Add extra zip ties or bolts if recommended by the airline.
