@louieandtodd Louie was such a good boy on his flight from Chicago to Mexico City 🇲🇽 While cats are normally required to remain inside their carriers underneath the seat we had kind cat loving crew members who let Louie chill in an empty seat next to us ❤️ One of the most commonly asked questions we get is how we handle their litter routine and the answer is we take them to use their portable litter box in the airport’s pet relief area before and after each flight. #cattravel #cat #cutecat #chillcat #britishshorthair #pettravel #travel #travelcat #katze #britishshorthaircat #traveltok #sweetcat ♬ original sound – Prince Louie 🦁 & Todd 🐼
