A student who flushed her hamster down the toilet when Spirit told her she couldn't fly home with it, is now attempting to sue the airline for causing emotional distress.
Aldecosea, a Miami Beach High graduate, insists her doctor approved her hamster as a certified emotional support animal, and had the medical certificate to prove it when she went to the airport.
She's bought the adorable rodent after developing a large but benign growth in her neck last year.
'She was so loving.

Airline travel has become little more than cattle cars for the crazy and belligerent!
Thanks for the info.
If this happened before she got on the plane I bet she could have found someone at the airport who would have taken the hamster. Giving it away would be better than killing it. This story just doesn’t add up.
Your are correct. But then none of her story adds up. Including her claim that all the car rental agents at BWI were out of cars and claimed taking a bus would take too long.
Add to that this hamster was supposedly her "emotional support animal that she supposedly loved and depended on, yet she flushed the poor thing down a toilet rather than miss her flight.
She's either mentally ill or looking for a payday, or likely both.
IMO, she should be brought up on charges for animal cruelty.
There is enough blood in a young man's body for EITHER an erection or a brain, not both...
Should have flushed her.
