ALL Pets Are Emotional Support Animals
ALL pets are emotional support animals, don't ya think?
If I had an official "emotional support animal" - it would be an imaginary one like in the Jimmy Stewart film "Harvey."Or maybe a pink giraffe or a purple unicorn. Something distinctive.
Recently, a woman attempted to travel with her 70-pound support pig on a U.S. Airways flight from Hartford to Milwaukee or Mars (I forget which).
Unfortunately, the pig had a nasty accident in the aisle of the plane before taking off. Fellow coach (surprise) passengers proceeded to make their own little stink...... resulting in the pig being escorted off the plane.TSA had no comment, but rumor has it bribes (bacon?) were involved.
The question is:
Especially if you're already a nervous wreck,what could be more stressful than carrying a 70-pound, non-potty-trained pig through airports?Here is a hilarious piece by Patricia Marx in The New Yorker Magazine: How To Take Your Pet EverywhereWashington Post - Justin Moyer - 'Emotional support’ pig removed from airplane after defecating
