Metropolitan™ Tote Carries Pampered City Paws in High Style Sherpa® introduces convenient pet tote designed for modern urban lifestyles

Whippany, NJ (June 20, 2014) – Sherpa® introduces a new hybrid bag for traveling pets. The Sherpa® Metropolitan combines the best features of a carrier and tote for the ultimate in convenience, comfort, discreetness, and fashion, built for modern living.

A tote-style zippered top entry provides flexibility for pets, allowing discreetly closed bag or an open top for more casual outings. Mesh side panels provide ample airflow at all times. Two strap options include a double handle carrier-style or durable over- shoulder tote-style option. Sleek nylon material adds a fashionable sheen, while offering durability and ease of cleaning.

“As increasing numbers of pets accompany their humans on the go, whether across the country or to the local coffee shop, consumers are seeking flexible, multi- function accessories to fit their modern lifestyles,” said Cristen Underwood, Marketing Director at Quaker Pet Group’s Sherpa®. “We designed the Metropolitan™ Tote to meet these growing needs.”

The Sherpa® Metropolitan™ Tote is available in navy or black with matte gold trim in two size options.
