‘This makes me afraid to fly now’: US couple take 3 kittens on 10-hour flight from Belgrade to Chicago; netizens call them out

They played with their kittens and even fed them cat food on the flight. The kittens also had a bathroom break seven hours into the flight.

The couple adopted the kittens after finding them abandoned in a Serbian village. The kittens travelled across various European cities with them in their van and were coming back to the US as they were going home for the holidays.

“You won’t believe what happens on this plane, flying 10 hours with our 3 kittens. We’re @ianandana a couple who shipped their van to Europe! Follow us for travel tips, van life and kitties.

“This is so unsafe for the cats. what about plane turbulence?” a user asked. “As a flight attendant, this would be an obnoxious flight to be on. I love cats (I have 4), but we have to enforce the rules. I suspect you knew the rules ahead of time. All I see is that you’re putting the flight attendants in a bad situation and teaching your kids that it’s ok not to follow policies,” another person wrote. “I have severe cat allergies. This makes me afraid to fly now,” said a third. “No offense but I cannot IMAGINE smelling cat food inside the cabin- i think I’d be sick,” another netizen said.
