Bad info from Spirit Air led me to flush pet hamster down airport toilet, student says

Bad info from Spirit Air led me to flush pet hamster down airport toilet, student says

Before Belen Aldecosea flew home from from college to South Florida, she twice called Spirit Airlines to ensure she could bring along a special guest: Pebbles, her pet dwarf hamster. No problem, the airline told her.

But when Aldecosea arrived at the Baltimore airport, Spirit refused to allow the tiny animal on the flight.

With her only friends hours away at campus, Aldecosea was stuck. She says an airline representative suggested flushing Pebbles down an airport toilet, a step that Spirit denies. Panicked and needing to return home promptly to deal with a medical issue, Aldecosea unsuccessfully tried renting a car and agonized for hours before doing the unthinkable.

She flushed Pebbles.

Why is it that ever single animal young people own these days are for "emotional support". Good freaking god, are you really so fragile mentally that you need a rodent for support.

Don't let me get started on that asshole with the peacock that is suing United. Who in the hell has a freaking peacock as a "support animal". A support animal is an animal that supports you. Like a horse or some other animal that can either physically support you are act as a part of your job.
People sleep peacefully in their beds at night only because rough men stand ready to visit violence on those who would do them harm.

Emotional support dogs are helping many US veterans deal with PTSD and the return to civilian life.

So there probably are people who need emotional support animals.

However if it really was a support animal, then never in a million years would its owner flush it down a toilet to catch a flight. Never.

Ever notice the only 2 people Trump refuses to speak ill of are Stormy Daniels and Vladimir Putin?

From what I see, the only thing fake about it is the girls alleged emotional attachment to her pet. Apparently her love for the animal stops where inconvenience begins.

That's an ask to sign a petition asking PETA to press charges against the girl. Like, through law enforcement, NOT charges from PETA.

I know what it is. Wasn't replying to anything you said. That's why I didn't use the quote button.

PeTA cracks me up. They asked my friend, Pat Carson, the mayor of Turkey Texas to change the towns name to Tofurkey for one day. He declined, but managed to get them to donate $1,000 to 3 town charities through negotiations with a barbeque sauce company.

I'm actually very familiar with k9s for warriors and other similar programs and I have seen their success.

What I am getting at is all these people who have not seen combat who are getting doctors to write letters declaring peacocks and hamsters to be support animals.

Not every dog can be an emotional support animal. It takes special training and many dogs do not have the temperament for it.
