Woman insists on feeding pet cat in cabin

Even though the crew asked her to stop this behavior, she refused to put the cat back on the plane. The captain urgently requested ground personnel to deal with it. The news of the incident came from the aircraft communication, addressing, and reporting system (ACARS), which caused dissatisfaction among many passengers. Moreover, Delta Air Lines had set stricter rules for bringing pets into the cabin, such as pets could only stay in the safe deposit box at the front of the cabin and required additional charges, but there were still passengers who ignored the rules. From the perspective of social order and aviation regulations, this behavior was inappropriate.

For example, the cat foster care in Hangzhou was generally 100 - 200 yuan per day, while the door-to-door feeding was about 30 - 50 yuan per time (the price was affected by the distance, pet species and number, and service content). If many people bought it, they could enjoy a lower price. - Taking into account the habits of pets, such as pet cats, which were sensitive and timid by nature and had poor adaptability to unfamiliar environments, it was a better choice to stay in a familiar environment and accept home feeding. - He had to be careful when choosing his food. Pay attention to the safety of pets, such as opening a video call before entering the door or installing a camera at home; pay attention to distinguish whether there is a third party to make a difference, in case you can't find someone to take responsibility when something goes wrong; try to find an acquaintance or someone who has worked with you before. For the person who came to feed them (pet care master): - The income was considerable. For example, during the Spring Festival, the demand was the highest. Some people could earn at least 5000 yuan by visiting the house 100 times during the eight-day holiday, while others could earn nearly 9000 yuan by feeding 260 times during the Spring Festival. - The fees were different. For example, 30 yuan per trip within 3 kilometers,+5 yuan for each additional pet; 60 yuan per trip within 5 - 10 kilometers,+5 yuan for each additional pet; 60 yuan for more than 10 kilometers,+5 yuan for each additional pet; and +4 yuan for each additional kilometer.

Cat feeding article
There were different opinions and situations regarding cat feeding: ** 1. In terms of feeding stray cats ** 1. ** In dispute ** - Some people believed that feeding stray cats would lead to over-reproduction of stray cats and increase the number of stray cats. But in fact, the root cause of the increase in the number of stray cats seemed to be the increasing number of abandoned domestic cats. For example, the increase in the number of stray cats in Australia during the epidemic was mainly due to the increase in the number of abandoned domestic cats. The economic depression would also cause domestic cats to be abandoned as stray cats. The most fundamental way to reduce stray cats was to enact laws to prohibit the abandonment of pets. - Some people felt that feeding stray cats was hypocrisy and not true love. If it was true love, it should be adopted. However, many people who fed stray cats for a long time also adopted stray cats at home. Moreover, this was a personal act. There was no financial support, and personal ability was limited. They could not adopt too many. The person who fed the stray cats did not repay them or even suffered misunderstandings and slander. Therefore, it could not be regarded as hypocrisy. - There were also people who thought that feeding stray cats was a free-range pet, a personal hobby that took up public resources and was not true love. However, free-range cats had owners and homes, while stray cats were homeless. It was also a good deed for kind-hearted people to not bear the hunger and cold and give them food. Love did not mean that they had to be adopted, just like donations to nursing homes and orphans. It could not be said that it was hypocritical not to bring home lonely old people and orphans. Although animal rights could not be equated with human rights, saving small lives was also a manifestation of kindness. Many people treated things around them indifferently, did not understand, and helped the weak without asking for anything in return. This was the tragedy of society. People could start from the small things that they could do around them. It was also a kind act to feed stray cats. It was a virtue to have good thoughts and sympathize with the weak. 2. ** An example of feeding stray cats ** - Some kind-hearted people were very generous when feeding stray cats. The food for the cats was so abundant that they could not finish it. It was even better than human food. This also triggered a discussion about feeding stray cats. ** 2. Cat-feeding (for cats with owners)** 1. ** Market demand ** - There were many young people with cats now. The 2019 China Pet Industry White Paper showed that there were as many as 44.12 million pet cats in cities and towns across the country. The owners of these cats were mostly young people with good spending power. They were busy. When they went on business trips or returned to their hometown, there were many problems in the pet store where the cats were kept. For example, the cats were sick, frightened, lost, and so on. Therefore, there was a market for cat feeding. 2. ** Launching cat feeding service ** - First of all, he had to create a circle of friends for pet breeders. He had to introduce himself as a pet breeder and accept the business of feeding cats. He had to share more cat pictures. He could go to a friend's house or cat café to take photos of the cats and send some pet knowledge at the same time. - The second was promotion. Prepare a personal introduction, service details, and charging standards. You can make posters or use maker posts to promote on platforms such as Zhihu, Douban, Little Red Book, WeChat Moments, Xianyu, and 58 City. Every week, you must send it to WeChat Moments and promote it to add potential customers. 3. ** Revenue ** - If you go to four places a day and the route is reasonable, you can earn 200 yuan. A college student could earn 1600 yuan by working two days a week and eight days a month. However, cat owners may have additional needs such as more cats, accompanying them to play, etc. They can charge more. A WeChat account with 5000 friends might require at least 50 orders a month, and the demand would be even higher during the holidays. It was also possible to earn 3000 yuan a month if you worked hard. However, applications like Jupiter Cat that connected cat keepers and cat owners had become less popular after the PIDAN incident. ** 3. Cat feeding game ** There was a casual puzzle game called "Feed the Cat." The game's graphics were refreshing. Players needed to use their intelligence to help the kitten eat food, and at the same time, be careful not to let the food fall into the black hole.
