Leaving the USA (Not as Tourists)
7:00 A.M. The girl behind
the counter was from Boston and this
morning was her second day at the
counter. We showed her our passports and
received our e-tickets. I promptly asked
about Chuckie's ticket and got a
dead-faced response.
Note: Chuckie is a fixed male cat that
I took in off the sidewalk in 1992. He
has been a faithful companion and would
not make it with another owner. If left
in the states at a shelter, he would be
definitely exterminated. There is no
other recourse but for him to live with
us in the Bahamas. Andria has also grown
to love him, as he does her. She has no
children and Chuckie is her companion as
well.
The woman behind the ticket counter
informed us that “NO PETS”
were allowed on this flight. When
confronted again about our dilemma, she
went back into the security area and said
her supervisor would not allow Chuckie on
the plane.
Andria and I were looking at each
other, as there was no “Plan
B” for this kind of response. After all,
Chuckie had his legal permit for entering the Bahamas,
his medical check-up certificate from the veterinarian
in West Palm Beach. He would soon
be more legal in this new country than I would be.
