The TSA has released an X-ray photo of a cat discovered inside a carry-on bag at Norfolk International Airport in Virginia
The folks running TSA security checkpoints at airports have some real humdingers to tell about the things they uncover. Soiled money. Inert grenades. Drugs inside scrunchies. But cats? Live cats? Tucked inside carry-ons? It’s happened before, and now it’s happened again. On Friday morning at Norfolk International Airport in Virginia, a feline was discovered inside a passenger’s carry-on bag during a security screening.
“They knew the pet was in a carry-on bag, because this was a pet travel case/container. “It appears that the individual either did not know to remove the pet from the carry-on travel case before going through the checkpoint, or forgot to do so,” she said. “When that happens, they have to start all over again, meaning that the passenger and the cat have to start over at the checkpoint.
