Question by gggoosey: If we expose a new puppy to our other dog that had parvo as a puppy, can our new puppy get parvo?
Our dog Petey had parvo when he was a puppy and survived – he’s now 5 years old. We just moved to a new house this past December. Is it safe to bring the puppy around Petey if the puppy has only gotten one or two sets of shots? Is Petey still a carrier of parvo?

Although you mention no time line, you should be safe. Glad you actually care. BUT, your vet could give you a more reliable answer than Yahoo “members”.

Question by iwishthatiwasjessiesgirl: Which airline can I bring my pet rat on? (Domestic)?
Either as a carry on, checked, or cargo, preferably carry on in a car carrier. And yes, she has her health certificate from the vet approved for flying. Please don’t tell me to call the airlines and ask. If you don’t know, don’t answer. I have already called Southwest, American, and Delta and they said no.

I am pretty sure that in order to bring a pet, you would need a private plane. There are strict rules on almost every airline, so I am saying you can’t bring it on any. I’m afraid if you are moving overseas, you’ll have to leave your pet behind.

Question by Virginia Gal: What kind of pet carrier should I use?
I have a pretty decent size cat (about 13lbs.) and I need to carry him to the vet and I am moving soon. Should I get the soft carrier or a hard plastic one? I was leaning towards the soft just because they look more comfortable for him, but I thought I would get your opinion. Thanks!

Question by KK: Has anyone ever snuck their cat/small dog on a plane without paying the airline fees?
I’ve traveled numerous times on planes with my cat in an approved carrier in the cabin with me. He does well flying and I get to spend the holidays with him. Each time, I paid for a medical exam for him by my vet so that I’d have the medical certificate if they asked (they never did) and I paid the airline fees. Two years ago, the first time I flew, it cost $ 50 each way for his “reservation” and $ 30 for the exam, for a total of $ 130. The next time, it cost $ 75 each way and $ 30 for the exam, for a total of $ 180. Since I wanted to take him home for Christmas this year, I checked the airline pet fees and nearly fell out of my chair! Delta/NWA is now charging $ 150 each way for a pet and United is charging $ 175. The cheapest, USAir, is still charging $ 100 each way, but I don’t fly them because they’re almost never the cheapest airline for me. I recently bought a ticket on Delta for my flight home for Christmas and payed $ 250 for a roundtrip, but my cat’s “reservation” would cost $ 300, more than my ticket! If I was flying United, it would cost $ 350!

Now, I’m all for playing the rules, but this is crazy. And what’s even more insulting, I pay all that money and my cat still counts as one of my pieces of carryon luggage! $ 300 and I don’t even get to bring an extra bag! So I’m either going to board him (which now costs less than flying him even for a two- or three-week trip) or sneak him on the plane, but has anyone ever done that successfully? I wouldn’t have to sneak him through security because the TSA people don’t know and don’t care what flight I’m on. How would they know if I have a reservation for him? And if I have a friend waiting to take him to a kennel in case my plan fails, what’s the harm in trying? Has anyone out there ever done this?
Ok, seriously, read the question. Don’t send a stupid, knee-jerk reaction answer. If you don’t own a pet and have never taken one on a plane, don’t answer this question. I don’t plan to send my cat through the x-ray machine! I’d walk through with him like I always do. My “guess” is that the only people who know if your cat is booked on a flight is the airline on which you’re flying. Do the TSA guys know whether you’ve made a reservation for your cat? If not, why would they care if I have a cat with me or not?

I don’t know how on earth you could get away with it since they scan all carry on and luggage bags.
