[Gpdd] Condolences and Travel Questions for Pigs

[Jennifer B Jacobs]

Dear Piggies and Slaves,

I wanted to first thank so many who have been so kind and helpful during my mourning time for Lilly who passed away on the 15th. You have all been great!

I also wanted to extend my condolences to Tigger, Oreo, Widget, and MeiMei, and other piggies who have recently crossed the RB, and I hope they have a safe and wonderful journey to the other side to meet piggies past. 

I want to give hugs and well wishes for Buzerre! You can do it piggie!

Lastly, I wanted to ask an important question, that I may already know the answer. For any with vet experience or those who have experience doing this in the past: when you are travelling with your piggies, can they go on the plane at all? If I could get TSA to let Paully go on the plane with me in her kennel, would it be safe? I was always under the impression that her head would explode from pressure (not necessarily literally!) and that it wasn't safe. But I had to ask. Has anyone done this? If so, did they get to go in the cabin or in cargo; I WON'T put Paul in Cargo. She deserves better (no offense to the pets that do!). I have heard too many horror stories about pets who have perished or became ill as a result. I know it will either be too cold or too hot for Paully. 

If not, has anyone gone on Amtrak or Greyhound with their piggie. Mine have always travelled by car, but would love if I could do it another way...
