History
Flamingo was founded in 1972 by René van Tendeloo, who made his passion (birds) his craft. After working since the house for years, a moving to a larger building took place in 1985. In 1993, Erwin van Tendeloo succeeded his father at the head of the company and decided to start building a building that was put into service in 1994. From the very first outwards are companies to start the market in the Netherlands and France. With the foundation of Pet Partners, established in the old building, start export activities at the same time.

Its ideal for travelling in the car, plenty of room for our cat. Fairly heavy but ok for short distances. Very sturdy. Overall very pleased.
It’s for my niece to take a dog back to Australia
This is well made and has lasted over 2 years without any issues. Due to the shape it is smaller inside than a metal cage but fits well on the back seat of the ca
The Crate is very sturdy and roomy for my cats, I take them to the vet in it.
If anything a little heavier than I would like and I should have thought of getting a top opening box, but other than that s good sturdy box, easy to assemble etc.
Thanks !
Bought to provide a slightly larger, sturdier cage for my 1-year old cat to head back to his new home country via airline cargo. Arrived fast and in well-packed condition. Thank you. Now all I need for him is a cat-xanax!
Sturdy carrier but I gave it 4 stars due to the front opening, with other carriers you can take it off to make access easier but once this is put together you’re unable to remove it, but overall compared to other carriers in pet shops this offers great value for money
The handles are a great asset. Perfect for transporting a small dog or cat. The advantage for cats is that it is big enough to also put a litter tray in and yet is moveable by one person.
Purchased to use for my 5.3kg cat to travel to Crete in when we move there in a months’ time – obviously not actually used it yet but my partner assembled it in about 10mins, easily enough. The box appears to be robust enough for the upcoming trip via plane/ferry – just hope I have a happy when we get there
Amazing quality , stirdy , durable and perfect size . I have heavy cats and this accomodates their size perfectly and also I feel it secure to lift and handle! Just ordered another one !
The carrier is big enough, appears sturdy with clips to lock in several places. The door lock is very secure too. I’m happy to use to take my cats to vet. It was quite straightforward to assemble.
It goes on the back seat of a 5 door citroen c1 ..you have to assemble in the car but that’s easy enough just using the clips. I then secure with the seat belts. Also fits in one side of my volvo v70 estate. Ideal when you need to carry other items. I have a full trans k9 crate in the volvo normally, but when camping etc its useful to have some extra space
Good product xl is perfect for golden retriever 2 year old, the plastic material is quiet strong assembling was a bit struggling the item it comes without the instructions book but finally we get on it, about travelling is okay from the house to the car but no big distance because is not really handy you can’t fully control the cage also if your tall person you have to bend over .. if it had telescopic handle and with the brake control for the wheels was amazing product for travel.
Quick delivery, nice and sturdy. Only thing instructions not clear enough had to Google and even then took time to figure it out.
Basically put the door in first the top goes on not at the end and the clips have to be fiddled with to clip into place but once you get it, it’s easy after that. Happy with result.
I bought this box to be compliant for use on a long-haul international trip on AirFrance or Air Brussels. We haven’t made the trip yet but I was very pleased that the package came with removable wheels, bolts with plastic nuts, the plastic connectors, and a bowl that fits with the door. I haven’t actually assembled the whole box yet (we’re training the dog starting with the bottom half).
FYI I bought an XL. My dog is a hound, about the size of a Dalmatian. Her length is 33″ from nose to base (not tip) of tail and her sitting height is 26″.
Our puppy is happy in this crate for long journeys. However a big complaint is that it arrived smelling of urine, which we assumed was rat pee from where it was stored. We needed it straight away so we didn’t have time to request a different one. Once we’d disinfected the crate thoroughly, we were happy with it.
In line with regulations bought this carrier which was easy to assemble. As our dog has never been in any form of crate and in preparation of our trip we firstly kept the lid off, placed his bed in the crate and he was happy to go in. We have since placed the lid on and door and again very happy.
I took this on the ferry to Cherbourg, France to collect 2 dogs. Both Swedish Lapphunds. One 3 months old and the other 16 months and fully grown. Both settled into the box very well. Had to stay there for 2 days as ferries were cancelled due to severe storm but dogs were quite happy to go in on a nighttime. Wheeled easily through terminal. Delighted with it.
Looks great, has wheels (xl crate) and two handles on top to help you push/pull it along. No sharp edges.
Negatives: only 2 wheels lock, two of the bolts cannot be added as the base shape/mold interferes with wing nut ‘wings’. (However you could use standard nuts.) There are unclear instructions for the plastic clips.
Bought it for our trip to Romania. Had absolutely no problem at the airport and is big enough for our French bulldog with room to spare as well. The fact that is has wheels is great, although maybe reconsider a longer handle in order to be able to pull it without it being very uncomfortable. It’s very sturdy and impossible for the dog to open the door.
The sole bad point (probably me as I am dumb) is that the clips to put together the box are not self evident to fit. Reasonably easy when you’ve done one.
Good, sturdy crates, needed ton fly our dogs with Agean airlines, these were perfect. Solid to keep the dogs safe but not too heavy. Came with the wheels but can’t use them on flights so haven’t tried putting them on. Easily assembled and taken apart.
The solid clips as well as metal bolts meant we were confident that the dogs were safelying secured. Would definitely recommend.
The only thing which is a little annoying is that if you leave the door open (my dog uses the crate as his safe place during the day sometimes so comes and goes as he pleases), it does close itself to. Not really a problem as my dog just nudges it open again.
