Tavo Hendrik Onyx – PET CAR SEAT AND FLEXIBLE CARRIER

Travelling with your dog or cat becomes considerably easier when their carrier works just as well inside the car as it does once you reach your destination. The **Tavo Hendrick Pet Car Seat & Flexible Carrier in Onyx** has been designed with exactly that in mind, combining a spacious everyday pet carrier with an intelligently engineered car seat that connects directly to your vehicle using integrated ISOFIX latches.

Unlike pet carriers that need to be strapped into place using the vehicle seat belt, the Hendrick has its ISOFIX connectors built directly into the carrier. Pressing a button extends the latches so they can connect to compatible ISOFIX anchor points in your vehicle, without requiring a separate base. Coloured indicators help confirm when the carrier has been correctly connected, while the same convenient mechanism allows it to be released when it’s time to leave the car.

The result is a carrier that feels equally at home on a weekend drive, a trip across town or a longer journey.

## Designed with Pet Travel Safety in Mind

Safety is one of the most important considerations when choosing a dog or cat car seat, and the Tavo Hendrick goes considerably further than a conventional soft-sided pet carrier.

The Hendrick has been crash tested at Tavo’s dynamic testing facilities using procedures benchmarked against the latest United Nations ECE R129 child-restraint standard. It also includes a removable Side Impact Protection guard featuring Tavo’s Tailor tech™ energy-absorbing memory foam.

Locking zips provide another useful layer of security by helping prevent determined pets from working their way out of the carrier while travelling.

## Integrated ISOFIX Without a Separate Base

One of the Hendrick’s standout features is its integrated ISOFIX installation system.

The steel-reinforced latches extend directly from the carrier and connect to compatible vehicle ISOFIX anchor points. This removes the need to carry or install a separate vehicle base and makes moving the Hendrick between compatible cars much more straightforward.

When you’re no longer travelling by car, the ISOFIX latches simply tuck away into the carrier.

It’s a particularly useful arrangement for households that regularly use more than one vehicle or owners who want a pet car seat without leaving a bulky base permanently installed.

## A Comfortable Space for Dogs and Cats

The Hendrick isn’t simply about getting your pet from A to B. The interior has been designed to give dogs and cats a comfortable, familiar space where they can settle during a journey.

Its structured base distributes your pet’s weight evenly and helps prevent the bottom of the carrier from sagging while being lifted or carried. With interior dimensions of approximately **52.5 x 32 x 31 cm**, there’s a generous amount of usable space while still retaining the enclosed, cosy feeling many pets prefer when travelling.

Mesh ventilation panels run around the carrier to encourage airflow while giving your pet a view of their surroundings. The doors can also be rolled down and held in position using magnetic holders, while the zip-opening top provides another convenient way to access or reassure your pet.

## Two Mattress Pads Included

Comfort inevitably becomes more important on longer journeys, which is why Tavo supplies the Hendrick with two different mattress pads.

The durable everyday mattress uses a hard-wearing material that coordinates with the exterior of the carrier, while the second provides a softer and more luxurious sleeping surface.

The plush comfort mattress material has been treated using a zinc-based antimicrobial technology designed to help protect against odour-causing bacteria. Both mattress pads are machine washable, making it much easier to keep your pet’s travelling environment fresh.

There’s also a wipe-clean interior tray for dealing with muddy paws, dirt and the inevitable little accidents that occasionally come with travelling with animals.

## Practical for Everyday Travel

Although the Hendrick works as a secure ISOFIX pet car seat, it has clearly been designed for use beyond the vehicle.

A detachable padded cross-body shoulder strap and vegan leather-wrapped top handles give you different ways to carry it. The flexible frame can adapt to tighter spaces, making the carrier useful for journeys involving cars, trains and other forms of public transport.

There’s also a trolley sleeve that allows the Hendrick to sit over the telescopic handle of compatible luggage, together with a zipped exterior pocket for treats and smaller travel essentials.

A luggage tag and dedicated tracking-device holder are included too, providing sensible finishing touches for owners who regularly travel with their pets.

## Premium Materials with Practical Benefits

Finished in sophisticated **Onyx**, the Hendrick has a noticeably more refined appearance than the average dog or cat carrier.

Premium vegan leather detailing gives the carrier an understated luxury finish, while the main fabric has been selected for considerably more than appearance alone.

The fabric is naturally flame-resistant without relying on harmful added fire-retardant chemicals and provides **UPF 50+ sun protection**. The Hendrick is also GREENGUARD Gold Certified, meaning it has been tested against strict standards for low chemical emissions.

It’s an approach that makes the Hendrick feel more like a carefully engineered piece of premium travel equipment than a conventional fabric pet carrier.

## Ready for the Roscoe Pet Stroller

For owners who want to create a more complete pet travel system, the Hendrick can also be connected to the compatible **Tavo Roscoe Pet Stroller Frame** using the separately available Hendrick adaptor.

This allows your pet to remain in the same familiar carrier when moving from the car to the stroller rather than having to be transferred between different seats and carriers throughout the day.

## Tavo Hendrick Dimensions & Capacity

The Tavo Hendrick measures approximately **54.5 cm long x 34.5 cm wide x 38 cm high externally**, with interior dimensions of approximately **52.5 x 32 x 31 cm**.

The carrier itself weighs approximately **3.86 kg** and has a maximum stated capacity of **20.4 kg**.

As with any pet carrier, weight shouldn’t be the only consideration when choosing the correct product. Your dog or cat should have sufficient room to sit and settle comfortably inside the carrier.
