DIY Travel Bag Carrier

Turn a tote bag into a travel carrier for your ferret or small rodent! Get a sturdy travel bag that has a fabric lining on the inside or make a fabric lining to fit. Cut a tall window that extends nearly to the base of the bag so your pet can see out, and cut several smaller windows for added ventilation. Cut a piece of window screen to fit over each window and sew the screen in place between the bag and fabric lining. Cut off the end of a small pet leash, carefully melt the cut edge of the leash to prevent fraying, cut a small hole in the seam of the fabric lining, and sew the cut end of the leash into the hole. Sew a piece of ribbon onto either side of a zipper, then sew the ribbons onto the top edges of the bag. Sew pockets onto the outside of the bag if there aren’t any already, attach your pet’s harness to the leash inside the bag, and fill the pockets with any supplies your pet may need while traveling.
