A New Brunswick woman is wondering how she made it through Saint John Airport security and all the way to Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ont., with a live cat in her suitcase.

Patting down a Cat? What possibly could a Cat carry that could be dangerous on a plane? A dead mouse? Hairballs?

If my precious Eddie had to go through a pat down the TSA agents would be in the hospital! :)

That incident with Ginger the Cat also reminds owners to double check the suitcase and your home (what I call "Cat" inventory) before leaving for the airport. Actually Cat inventory is good whenever you leave your home.

My beautiful Yaz used to go into my suitcase while I was packing and would not move. A few times he got tricky and buried himself in my clothes thinking I would not notice.

I did a Cat inventory and found Eddie but no Yaz. I opened the suitcase and there Yaz was looking at me. I told him "baby, I would love to take youto Paris but you would go into quaranteen or worse...)


Maybe Yaz wanted to meet the black Cat in those posters and ads from the turn of the century.

We call our inspection the cat count. One of us has to say CCC - cat count complete - before we leave the house.

I wouldn't call you lucky having to put your pets in cargo. It could be a terrible experience for them.
