My Eddie (whose weight varies from 15-18 pounds) travels in the biggest original Sherba bag imaginable. He does not mind traveling. The only issue is he likes biting and scratching people to show who's boss (He can sense a Cat person from a not Cat one.)

Good advise here from cepheid.

I checked the Sherba website and clicked on a bag for a pet up to 19 pounds. Again, check out sevearl bags and see how the baby likes it.

How does your Kitty like being in the carrier? Does it fight when it's vet time or if he has to go someone unfamiliar.

Fourteen pounds is nothing! I pet sit Cats who top the scales at 22 pounds, 25 pounds and Mr. Max was at his peak 35 pounds!

To go off topic: If the baby fights the carrier you may want to consider the pet sitter route. I am one and my advise is to interview several people and see how how interact with the Cat angel. If you can find someone who is strictly Cat that's a bonus.

Let us know how it goes and what''s your baby's name?
