FYI

Back-Seat Riders Just as small children should be buckled up for car travel, so should small pets. The Pet Saf-T Ride provides a secure, comfortable seat-with-a-view for small dogs and cats. Easily strapped in place by your car’s seat belt, the carpeted, steel-framed plastic platform comes with a nylon web harness to hold your pet in place and a removable, covered water dish. Made by Custom Care Pet Supply, the car seat is about $70 at the Pet Dept., Westwood; Love’s Pets, Westlake Village; Deb’s Pet Shop, Tarzana; Sue’s Animal House, Reseda; Pet Center, Westchester; Chatsworth Pet Center, Chatsworth; Plush Puppy, Garden Grove, and Petland, Rolling Hills Estates.
