The journey is the hard part
For most cats it is the trip that frightens, not the destination. Somewhere enclosed, with a view out and the smell of home inside, makes the difference between a struggle at the door and a quiet journey.

Terracina is a soft-sided carrier in nylon: mesh panels on the front and sides, a zip along the opening, and two handles. There is no frame to dismantle — it folds flat when you are not using it.
A carrier is a stressful place for a cat, and most of that stress is not being able to see out. Panels on the front and both sides mean the cat keeps a view in whatever direction the bag is set down, and the air moves through rather than sitting still — which matters in a car or a waiting room more than anywhere.
A rigid carrier is used four times a year and stored for the other three hundred and sixty days. This one collapses flat, which is the difference between a carrier that lives in a cupboard and one that lives at the back of a wardrobe and is never fetched in time.
There is a weight limit per size: under 3 kg for the 43 cm, under 5 kg for the 47 cm, under 7 kg for the 53 cm. Measure your cat rather than guess — a carrier a cat cannot turn around in is one it will fight on the way in.

For most cats it is the trip that frightens, not the destination. Somewhere enclosed, with a view out and the smell of home inside, makes the difference between a struggle at the door and a quiet journey.
Your cat should be able to stand up and turn round inside. Measure it from nose to the base of the tail and compare that with the dimensions before choosing.
Because your cat deserves better than the first listing that comes up — and so does your home.

Goes well with it
Start days ahead, not on the morning itself. Leave a carrier open in the living room with a blanket and the occasional treat inside, so it stops being the object that only appears before the vet. A harness goes on for two minutes at a time indoors, with food, and comes off before the cat objects rather than after.
A carrier belongs on the floor behind a front seat, or on a seat with the belt run through its straps — never loose, never on a lap. A cat that gets out mid-journey is a danger to itself and to the driver. Draping a light cloth over it helps: most cats settle faster when they cannot see the road moving.
Almost always because the carrier only ever appears before something unpleasant. Break the association by leaving it out permanently as furniture, feeding near it, then feeding in it. Loading from the top is far easier than pushing a braced cat through a front opening — on a soft carrier, unzip the top rather than fight the door.
Cats accept new things on their own timetable. Put it where your cat already chooses to be — the sunny corner, the room the household uses most — and leave it alone for a few days rather than presenting it. A little catnip helps on anything meant to be slept on or scratched. Anything worn or handled should be left out to be sniffed and walked away from several times before you use it.
You have 30 days from delivery to send it back. Returns are free and the refund goes to the payment method you used. You do not need to give a reason.
