Isn't flying fun? Who doesn't love trapping themselves in a sealed cabin with hundreds of crazy people? Well, if you have been keeping up, you'll know people have recently lost all their composure while flying.
According to Delta flight attendant, Ainsley Elizabeth, the woman in question was holding her hairless cat swaddled up like a baby while trying to force it to drink her milk. The incident happened in early November, as confirmed by the flight attendant TikTok video posted on the 2nd.
A message was sent over the Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS) alerting Delta flight controllers in Atlanta that a woman sitting in seat 13A was, “{sic} breastfeeding a cat and will not put cat back in its carrier when [flight attendant] requested.”
Here is a screenshot of the ACARS message, which was later shared on Reddit, before going viral.
According to a source on Twitter who claims to have spoken with passengers on this flight from hell, the story is a bit more nuanced than the original reports let on.

The woman wasn't simply trying to breastfeed, she was attempting to calm down the stressed cat, but rubbing butter on her breasts for the cat to lick off. This is was lead her fellow passengers to alert the cabin about her strange behavior. Yikes!
