This story stinks to high heaven of fakery.
Given that an “emotional support” animal has a special attachment to the person, it’s inconceivable that she would kill it at the dubious demand of another.
“she told the Miami Herald that she “didn’t have any other options” since she didn’t want the hamster to suffer a slow death in the cold.
She decided to flush the hamster down the toilet.”
How about she just decides not to board the plane in order to save the life of her devoted support animal?
Anyone that needs and emotional support hamster is not emotionally balanced enough to believe a word they say.
Enough with the emotional support animals.
Get therapy or stay home.
