With all the stories of displaced people and the tales of loss and tragedy coming out of Fort McMurray, there’s also been some good stories. Such as this one we posted about the airlines that were helping Fort Mac residents escape with their pets, including Canadian North Airlines. So far hundreds of pets have been evacuated, or recovered by firefighters and police.
This guy’s story is a little different. This is Meow Meow and as his family was getting ready to evacuate, her owner Kristal Scott went into labour, so they asked if the Canadian North Airline folk could hold on to the cat until the new family was settled.
They agreed.
The airline released these photos on their Facebook with the following caption,
“Our Edmonton Flight Ops team has been kitty-sitting “Meow Meow” for one of our passengers that travelled with us from Fort McMurray. They figured that if she’s going to be part of our team she might as well have proper identification. Meow Meow, it’s been a pleasure to have you with us this week”
Yup, that’s an official badge for Meow Meow the cat.
The airline posted a few photos so the family could see how their furry friend was doing.
During her time with Canada North, she sat in on meetings about further evaluations and assisted in assuring that pets would be taken care of.
She also did some wandering of the office to cheer up the workers.
They also tweeted out a photo of Meow Meow with the caption “She makes a great coffee. We’ll definitely be sad to see her go!”
Once reunited with her owners, Kristal posted this image to Canadian North Air’s Facebook, praising the airline for their help in taking care of their fuzzy family member and making her into a celebrity. Someone’s gotta take care of the animals, and Canadian North are doing it right!
Great job guys!!
