It's a legal requirement for your cat to travel safely in the car
Did you know, you’re not only putting your beloved cat in danger if you don’t safely secure them in a vehicle, but you’re also putting other passengers at risk and leaving yourself open to penalty points and a fine?
The importance of safely restraining your cat in a vehicle cannot be underestimated. At 30mph, an unrestrained pet could be thrown forward with a force of 30 to 60 times their own body weight – and if the cat is in a carrier which is unsecured, that force would increase. It’s no surprise then that if you don’t suitably restrain your cat, you’re not in compliance with the Highway Code and at risk of receiving penalty points, incurring a fine, or in the event of a crash, invalidating your license. Yet, many cat owners and drivers are unaware of all of these risks.
To help cat owners put safety first, Tavo, the industry innovator in premium impact-tested pet car seats, has launched Dupree™️ II – an essential piece of kit for any pet owner who wants total peace of mind when travelling with their cat in the car.
The latest in pet travel, Dupree™️ II, is a bespoke product for cats (and smaller dog breeds) that seamlessly combines the key qualities of convenience and comfort in a super compact carrier design that raises the bar for pet safety.
Dupree™️ II extends the portfolio offering from Tavo, complementing the Tavo Maeve collection, providing a solution for smaller pets weighing up to 9kg/20lbs. Enveloping pets in the ultimate comfort zone, the carrier reassuringly conforms to United Nations ECE child restraint standards for maximum protection when travelling.
A home away from home, Dupree™️ II features ventilated mesh panels, roll down doors with magnetic attachments for easy access, a structured base, and a flexible frame for simple stowing.
Expertly engineered for safety, Dupree™️ II has integrated rigid ISOFIX latches that reduce movement and prevent rotation in the event of a crash. For convenience, the latches secure the carrier to the ISOFIX car fittings in seconds, and the Side Impact Protection guard, coupled with energy-absorbing Tailor Tech™️ memory foam, means cats can travel in complete comfort and security.
Dupree™️ II is a first-class experience, crafted with only the most premium materials, UPF50+ flame retardant fabrics and machine washable mattress pads (one for comfort and one durability). Thoughtful design details such as the high-strength alloy leash attachment and exterior zipped pocket ensures an elevated travel experience for treasured furry companions.
Due to its compact dimensions, Dupree™️ II has approved airline 'carry-on' capabilities. Always check with your airline if pets are approved to travel.
The Tavo Dupree™️ II is available now in the 'Onyx' colourway for £250 online and in-store at Halfords.
