Feds Release Flight-Related Cat
Incident Data

This is the reason I won't fly my animals. I don't trust what the carriers do.

In my opinion I don't believe people realize that
pets are a part of one's family, and should be
treated with the same protection as any other living being even if they aren't of the same species. All living things feel pain, fear, love,
joy, etc., and it's the responsibility of humans
to realize that..honor and protect those that can't protect themselves.

But when you consider the lax of protection we offer children today, it just is an offshoot of
that lack of decency and concern that is shown
towards our pets.

I feel that if a pet has to travel, that a separate
compartment in the plane and not in the luggage hold should be provided at a cost. I doubt that
anyone making the decisions in the airlines re-
garding pets would like to be put in the luggage
hold.

In my hundreds of flights through the years, I have
found that most children seated in the plane has
behaved much worse than any cat or dog I've ever
seen...and we don't put them in the belly of the
aircraft.
