Even pet detective can’t find lost cat
It’s been more than two months now that Jack the cat, a fluffy orange feline, mysteriously disappeared while in the hands of American Airlines at JFK International Airport but the search is far from over.
The cat was last seen in the cargo area of JFK in New York City.
His “disappearance at the hands of American Airlines has spawned a Facebook page and a PR headache for the airline,” says Nation Now. The cat was on his way to California, where his owner was set to start a new job.
His fame has grown as a Facebook page dedicated to the search has more than 15,500 followers. Critics claim that American did not act quickly enough after he was discovered to be missing.
The airline notes that its efforts since the end of August have included hiring a pet detective, and placing food, water and humane traps in the cargo area — all to no avail.
