MIM Variocage Compact Crash Tested Crate For Hatchbacks - 00367

The MIM Safe Variocage is the safest dog cage on the market!

The MIM Safe Variocage is made of steel with telescopic tubes and two individual parts for the floor and roof, which allows for adjustment of the cage length. This adjustable feature also benefits crash safety by working with the vehicle’s crumple zone. In a rear-end collision, the floors, ceilings and the telescopic tubes will be pushed together. This reduces the risk of injury for all vehicle passengers, dogs and humans.

The MIM Safe Variocage is the safest dog cage on the market!

MIM Safe has developed over 350 crash tested safety products for the automotive industry. All products meet the strict requirements of automotive manufacturers and European regulatory agencies for crash safety. This experience combined with a passion for safety engineering makes MIM Safe a leader in crash tested safety products.

• Steel Construction – MIM Safe Variocage is made of steel. Most other cages are made of wire mesh, plastic, or aluminum and do not provide the same level of protection, durability, or strength as the MIM Safe Variocage.
• Escape Hatch – MIM Safe Variocage features an emergency escape hatch allowing you to fold down your rear seats and get your dog out of the cage after a rear-end collision. In many cases, the rear hatch or door of a vehicle cannot be opened easily; this critically important feature allows you to get to your dogs, remove them from the vehicle, and tend to them after a collision.
• Crumple Zone Protection – MIM Safe Variocage is the only cage designed to work with your vehicle’s crumple zone protection. The crash testing and crumple zones are critically important and help to protect both dogs and humans in the car. A rigid cage can be dangerous to both your dog and human occupants in the event of a severe impact.

Why is Pet Safety So Important?

Whether it's a quick run to the store or a cross-country trip, traveling with your pet can and should be fun but driving with a pet in a modern vehicle poses many risks, some you might not be aware of:

• An unrestrained dog can be a distraction while driving, increasing your risk of having an accident
• In the event of an accident, an unrestrained dog will impact whatever it hits with a force equivalent to several thousand pounds of energy
• In an accident, an unrestrained dog may be ejected or escape from the vehicle, resulting in the dog getting lost, injured or killed.
• Once outside, the dog can become a hazard to other drivers and is a risk of being hit by another vehicle.
• After an accident, an injured dog can pose a threat to emergency responders, preventing them from helping human occupants that may be in need of assistance.

Traveling safely and responsibly with your pet is not just about reducing the risk of harm or fatal injury to your dog; it is about the safety of human occupants as well. You owe it to yourself, your passengers and your beloved pet to make everyone’s journey as safe as possible.
