ack! I'm moving from Seattle to Albuquerque in two weeks and the way things have worked out, I'm flying down and shipping all my belongings. The problem comes in with my girls, Bee and Bear..... I can't ship them UPS and United only allows puppies and kittens. I would have chosen a more ferret friendly airline except I had a frequent flier ticket on United. I was just planning on smuggling them on, but now with the stepped up security they've got at all the airports Im scared! They're especially paranoid in Seattle because we just had a breach of security here. Just my luck. Does anyone know what the consequences are of getting caught smuggling ferrets onboard? Knowing the consequences might help me decide whether I should risk it. Does anyone else have any other ideas for alternatives? I'm scared to try and work it with another airline or something for them to ship them for me because its so hot in albuquerque I'm afraid they'd die of heat stroke on the runway or something. I would be absolutely heartbroken if anything happened to my babies! any suggestions are welcome! Jena, Bee & Bear [Posted in FML issue 1287]
