It is impossible for an airline to have safeguards for very possibility. I took a look at the thread over at Sphynxlair. What? The kitten was wearing a sweater,hot water bottles, sleeping bag. I can almost bet you that Delta told the breeder that that they would not ship the cat with those things in the carrier. THe breeder should have walked away and not shipped the kittten- simple. We have shipped and they always look in the carrier. They are strict as what can be or not be in the carrier. Again, it is the BREEDER's fault. What harm would have it done to wait until the temperature warmed up may be a couple of days, a month? Would not that have been worth it in the long run.Alexihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09222877183938209659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5279981885579944519.post-37252648563016871192011-01-27T00:52:56.789-05:002011-01-27T00:52:56.789-05:00We're a bit confused about some of the timings...We're a bit confused about some of the timings. If the plane was on time, it was just less than an hour from the time the plane landed (8:40) until the new pawrents had Snickers (9:30). Factor in that everything in the cargo hold would still be warm, even after the hold was depressurized. We have a hard time believing Snickers would get that cold if she was carried directly from the hold to the pawrents once the door was open.<br /><br />We're wondering how long that poor kittie was sitting on the runway while the baggage handlers staggered around unloading the rest of the hold.The Lee County Clowderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02745490690252097351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5279981885579944519.post-83438679743181439332011-01-26T18:49:17.767-05:002011-01-26T18:49:17.767-05:00This makes us very sad and angry at Delta.

This is...I thought this statement was most telling. This is probably from the paperwork that accompanied the cat.<br />"a copy of the vet's paperwork which recommended that a hairless cat not be shipped when temperatures were anticipated to be under 20° degrees Fahrenheit. "<br /><br /> Now who was responsible for bringing the cat to Delta to be shipped - the breeder. Lets put blame where it rightly belongs- on the breeder not the airline.<br /><br />We have shipped kittens and cats but I would NEVER ship a cat when temps are below freezing. That is just plain stupid. In fact shipping cats when it is too hot is also just stupid. Some states like mine won't allow shipping of cats below or above certain temperatures. PERIOD. If it is too hot or too cold, then you have to delay shipping or someone has to take the cat on board.Alexihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09222877183938209659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5279981885579944519.post-73602018569120971892011-01-25T20:56:53.247-05:002011-01-25T20:56:53.247-05:00there really are NO WORDS that can make the situat...there really are NO WORDS that can make the situation better. it didnt need to happen. <br /><br />interesting response- very short and text book , without feeling. <br /><br />some people just dont GET it.<br /><br />all life is equally fragile. his response could have been a bit more understanding, in the least.<br /><br /><br />(shaking my head)Us4 Catshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11739127381541688361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5279981885579944519.post-85926962267194435202011-01-25T20:51:42.819-05:002011-01-25T20:51:42.819-05:00this is HEARTBREAKING!
