Anybody remember a few weeks ago a cat ended up flying to France

[Toots]

An airline I don't remember which found a cat stowaway on one of their overseas flights ending in France. It was a heart warming story about how a lost cat was found and flown back to the USA "First Class". Well what if that animal had been wrapped with explosives? It obviously was not screened. The US Navy uses dolphins for such missions, why wouldn't an enemy do the same? All this talk about how much safer we are because of Bush* makes me cringe....

1. I think the cat got to France on a cargo ship and got flown back

Was it in Wisconsin? Can't remember for sure.

5. Yes, Appleton

Sort of in the North East part of the State 20 some-odd miles south west of Green Bay.

Appleton is a big, big paper manufacturing area and the place is just crazy with cargo containers used to ship paper and related products. The story is that the cat got into and shipped with one of these overseas containers. Not at all improbable.

BUT

It odes point out that shipping containers ARE NOT INSPECTED!

2. Exploding cats

I suspect the evil Dr Wilhelm Von Frist, Arch villain of the transnational feline explosives racket.


Everybody knows that cats fired the magic bullet.

3. No don't remember this particular cat story, but have heard

of it happening in the past. Cringe is right... safety to poop on!

4. Cat + airplane + France = Terror.

This should be obvious to everyone.

We should build a cat prison on Catalina Island and call it Catmo. It's the only solution to this mess.

6. Exactly.

The French are treacherous foreigners who want the terrahists to win. Cats are in league with Satan.
Nothing more needs to be said, except that the fact that this emissary of turbanned terror got into our airspace so easily shows that still more Fascism is necessary to lock things down in this country.

11. Actually, I think "Catalina Island" speaks for itself

7. what makes you think the cat wasn't screened?

i'm sure at least they made it take off its shoes and empty its pockets....

10. This cat has been screened

9. Dolphins used to screen passengers for bombs?

The US Navy uses dolphins for such missions, why wouldn't an enemy do the same?

Tell me more of this novel use of dolphins by the navy to screen passenger jets. :-)
Or are we talking about Al Qaeda Flipper suicide torpedo missions?

Feeling afraid of Flipper :scared:

12. I wouldn't mind if my wife's cats were sent to France.
