ok this is so funny.....
on Day 5 of life my baby came with me on the plane from Ohio to Seattle!
i asked the vet if i could take her on the airplane - of course traveling with a baby isnt the best idea - but as he said, 'its better then letting her die in the shed'...so she became my traveling girl. i had to go and didnt really have a choice - it was hilarious. of course she wasnt loud and no trouble at all.
the funniest thing was going thru security. the security guy was this huge angry man and demanded, loudly, that i 'remove the animal from the cage and put the carrier thru the xray'
so i pulled out this tiny 5 day old callie -- and he just turned to blubber and swooned - i mean he SWOONED over how cute she was. it totally broke the tension and everyone laughed - and thats when i got swarmed by tons of people asking questions and oooh-ing and aaahing about her. my new entourage and i moved on and we kept everyone entertained until our flight left. it was very cute.
so i was like a rock star going thru the airport and on the plane! everyone wanted to see her. when i had to feed her (had to keep the schedule!) people swarmed all around. it was very very funny. she was with me for the 10 days i was there and had her eyes wide open by the time we got home.
of course now she is such a spoiled girl - we just love her. my husband, a big ol' redneck, baby talks to her still. its very very funny
