The big cat wasn’t allowed to enter the plane but here’s what his resourceful owner did

There is one wise saying: “We are responsible for those whom we have tamed” That told us Exupery, and for some people these are not just beautiful words. Mikhail Galin, the owner of a cat named Victor, shared with Facebook users a story about his journey with his pet.

The journey full of difficulties

A man with his cat flew on the route Riga – Moscow – Vladivostok. They got from Riga to Moscow without any problems, but the cat endured what was happening with difficulty, he was very worried.

Finally, Mikhail and his pet reached the capital and proceeded to check-in for the Moscow-Vladivostok flight. This is where great difficulties start to appear.

Victor

Inseparable friends were surprised to meet an incredibly strict airport employee. She checked everything, and then became interested in the cat. It needed to be weighed, but it would not lead to anything good.

The fact is that even before the flight, the cat gained excess weight. He weighed as much as 10 kilograms, which could prevent him from moving to the salon. For this reason, the airport staff did not want to let Victor inside the cabin and even wanted to send him to the luggage compartment.

Trying his best

The man still did not accept that decision of the airport staff. He explained that the cat might not withstand so much time in luggage, since the change in pressure during the last flight was difficult for the animal to endure too.

 The owner had to make sure that the cat did not lose consciousness. Wipe drool and rub the animal’s ears, even apply a cold compress. Sometimes Victor became weak and could lose consciousness and suffocate. He needed to be looked after.

A bright idea

He then saw another cat which seemed to look like victor and decided to try a little trick and weigh him instead of Victor another time. And the trick was a success for them ! He was allowed to go inside the cabin. Mikhail and his pet went on a further journey.

No one could separate Mikhail and Viktor and it was obvious since they risked their flight to be together. This story got more than 10 thousand likes, about 1.7 thousand reposts and about 1.4 thousand comments.
