    That's hilarious, I saw this on facebook just a little while ago. I'm sad for him for losing so many airline miles, but damn, how stupid can you be for posting about it online??

    Yep, I think anyone dumb enough to post about stuff that can get them on trouble on social media deserve that trouble.

    I’m confused- what did he do with the extra cat?

    It seems like he was just trying to get past a silly airline rule- how much could that cat actually weighed? Let’s say the cat is 10lbs overweight- what’s the difference between bringing the cat vs. weighing an extra 10lbs himself? There are all kinds of silly rules around pets, and this guy loved his cat and wanted to bring the cat with him.

    Now, where he went wrong was being dumb enough to publicly flaunt it..

    That was my first thought too! Since only one person and cat could go through security how did they exchange cats again??

    I think the weighing is done at the ticketing counter, not at security. One cat got weighed twice, or a cat that wasnt going to fly got weighed in place of one that was.

    I sense a spinoff - CFP - Cat Fitness Pal

    let me know when it comes out - I've got one that seriously needs to lose weight (doesn't help that she's one of 5, and the other 4 are fine and I work all day and must leave the food out since 3 of the 5 are browsers.....) lol

    Here is one option - but with 5 cats, it's gonna get expensive...
