By Alyssa • Apr 22nd, 2009 • Category: Pet HealthOn July 14, 2009 a pets only airline will take flight. They will take domestic animals of all sizes in the cabin, instead of the cargo hold.
Studies done by the San Francisco SPCA found that 2,000,000 animals transported in the cargo hold of commercial airlines per year, about 5,000 are injured. The APHIS said that almost every major airline has been cited and fined for repeatedly mishandleing animals.
The flights will be serving five US cities: New York, Washington D.C., Chicago, Denver, and Los Angeles.
The plane is fully-lit, climate-controlled, and have fresh air circulation. The pets (Pawsengers)will not be left in the heat, or cold,and be offered potty times.
The airlines wants the furry friends owners to not be worried their four-legged animals will be fine.
