Due to the devastating fires in Fort McMurray families have been forced to evacuate, and anyone with a pet knows they are part of the family.
Local airlines understand this. West Jet and Canadian North airlines are allowing pet owners to fly with their animals – cats, dogs, snakes, etc, in the cabin.
No one seems to have any complaints about the furry companions flying alongside them and many pictures have even been shared throughout social media.
Look at these happy guys:
