Man asks 'what would you do' if this happened on your flight - The Mirror

It's always nice to have pleasant seatmates when travelling by plane. You're in a tight space at 35,000 feet in the air, so someone polite, perhaps even sweet, is the ideal situation - especially if you've drawn the short straw and you're sitting in the middle seat.

But one man asked, "What would you do" if you were flying and your seatmates were his three adorable cats.

"Sponge Cake, Donut, and Buttercream all love chin scratches!" he wrote as the caption to the adorable video, which had people desperately wanting to meet the threesome. "What would you do if you were stuck with three furbabies on a flight to Paris?" he penned over the top of the clip, which amassed almost 20,000 likes.

Then, the camera panned to Sponge Cake, Donut, and Buttercream, who were all wearing the most adorable French costumes, complete with berets and striped shirts.

One of the cats was gazing out of the window, probably wondering when their next meal was, and then the next shot saw two of the cats grooming each other, politely sitting in their seat.

In the comments, the cats were showered with praise. One woman wrote: "These sweet guys on planes are always so cute. People who get to ride with them are blessed. What fun that would be. I love them".

Another wrote: "They are so beautiful and well-behaved. They need their own private jet".

"I'd pay extra to sit next to them," a cat lover admitted, and many others likely feel the same.

Somebody pointed out that they're all "dressed beautifully," with one Instagram user saying: "That's the best thing ever! I'd be happy to sit next to them!"

There are different rules for different airlines as to whether you're allowed to travel with dogs or cats in the cabin.

On the Flight Centre UK website, they explain that cats and dogs are usually the only types of animals allowed to travel on airlines, and most others are required to be shipped or freighted by road.

Usually, they warn that your pet will be placed in the cargo hold under the main cabin seating or sometimes in the front or rear of the plane, depending on the aircraft.

However, if you have a small pet, you may be able to take it on board as carry-on.

They write: "While there are currently no airlines from the UK that offer this service, it is possible on some flights in the United States and Europe, depending on the airline".

They also note that pets are supposed to stay in their carrier at all times, but it's important that you speak to a travel consultant beforehand so you can figure out the best course of action for you and your pets.
