ever since I read this story about the girl flushing her hamster, I've been thinking about what a cruel girl this was to kill her pet. I've thought about that poor little animal's suffering many times and the cold heartedness of this young woman.....as such cruelty to animals always shocks me. animals aren't inanimate objects.
Thought I heard something about at least one airline cracking down on support animals. I think people will need to have a doctor's note. But that could be forged. The airlines need to get together with the AMA to have an online submission form for docs to submit the note. Few docs will want to bother for fake claims.
Now what needs to happen next is cracking down on people bringing pets into supermarkets, restaurants and retail stores. I saw a dog lift his leg and pee on a nightgown display. And who gets sued when a dog bites another customer?
Here's an idea: have a dog check (like coat check) at the store where you drop Fido off and he can make new friends while you shop. Maybe throw whining kids in with them.
I would have taken 'Pebbles,' given the circumstances. Hell, I would have even paid her for the poor little thing.
She could have made a sign, "Please save my hamster!" A cute girl like that would not have had to wait very long for help. But now she'll be forever known as the hamster killer.

It's a freaking hamster! What's the big deal? Folks flush pet gold fish all the time. She can always go buy a new one. And no one actually knows if she flushed it or not. That's just her side of the story.
So let me get this straight, this girl has issues to the point where she can't fly without an "emotional support animal" yet in the same day, she not only murdered the animal she *allegedly* depended on for "support" but she also took the flight?
Where is a therapist? She needs help. So many people suffering from mental issues. Now that she has successfully drowned the rodent, maybe things will get better.

I thought of this, too. I knew a girl years ago who had a pet rat she took literally everywhere with her. Most people had no idea she had it. I wouldn't advise trying to smuggle anything on a plane, live or otherwise, but if she was THAT determined to keep Pebbles with her...then again, clearly she was not.
When I was a kid, I used to take my guinea pig places in my bike basket. She really liked it. I even smuggled her on car trips, usually under my jacket. She was quiet and had AMAZING bladder control. We'd be halfway to where we were going and I'd whip her out, "Guess who's here?"
