Jack's back
Posted 02/11/2011
Jack the lost cat in LA was found and was reported to be “healthy, safe and well.”
He was found in the customs room and was immediately taken by AA team members to the airport vet service, VetPort. A microchip scan confirmed that the cat was Jack, the airline announced on its Facebook page called “AA's Search for Jack the Cat.”
The announcement was followed by this post on another Jack the Cat FB fan page with almost 16,000 followers.
Owner Karen Pascoe checked in the 18-pound cat for a flight from New York to California in late August, reported the LA Times.
A Department of Transportation Pet Incident Report released earlier this month explains how it happened: A clerk placed one kennel on top of another on a baggage cart and the kennel on top fell. The impact "caused the kennel to separate," allowing the cat to escape.
An American supervisor later told Pascoe that Jack's crate had turned up empty. That started a months-long search.
