(WTVO) — A woman on a Delta Airlines flight reportedly began to breastfeed her cat during the flight and refused to stop when confronted by the crew.

According to Newsweek, the incident happened on a flight between Syracuse, New York and Atlanta, Georgia.

A now-viral message posted on social media shows a screenshot of a Aircraft Communications Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS) message from the pilot to the ground, which says “Req. Redcoat meet AC Pax (passenger) in (seat) 13A is breastfeeding a cat and will not put cat back in its carrier when FA (flight attendant) requested.”

Red Coats are “elite airport customer service experts,” according to Delta, who were requested to meet the woman once the plane landed.

Flight attendant Ainsley Elizabeth, who allegedly was on the flight, added on TikTok on November 13th: “This woman had one of those, like, hairless cats swaddled up in a blanket so it looked like a baby. Her shirt was up and she was trying to get the cat to latch and she wouldn’t put the cat back in the carrier. And the cat was screaming for its life.”

[hlthe2b]

8. Me too. This is abusive and yeah, the woman needs a psych exam without delay.

9. The poor cat is a baby replacement?

What about the teeth.

4. Can you get any nuttier than this? This is beyond crazy but just watch.

[bahboo]

7. Makes me think of the Office episode when Angela licks her cats.

And yet it's even worse.

[AngryOldDem]

10. Yep.

Animal abuse.

12. Wow! And we used to joke here on DU about breast-feeding pitbulls!!

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

14. Yes, but we never mentioned breast-feeding a HAIRLESS pitbull.

THAT would be odd, indeed!

[Scrivener7]

19. That was no joke, Coventina! Pitbull breastfeeders are a SCOURGE!!

13. Why on earth would anyone try to breastfeed a creature with the kind of teeth a cat has?

Seems to be a good way to lose a nipple. Human babies have gums. Cats have fangs.

15. I wonder if she wasn't actually trying to keep the cat warm by putting kitty next to her skin.

Putting a cold kitty under one's shirt is a common way to prevent hypothermia. I thought a friend of mine was going to laugh herself to death.... we'd gone into a public restroom and I decided it was time to give my neonate bottle baby its lunch. I'd made a cozy nest for it in my bra with paper to catch any accident. Oops! I hadn't mentioned to my friend that I was packing kitten, so when I reached under my sweatshirt and pulled a baby kitten out....well!

17. This may very well have been what the woman was doing considering it was a hairless cat (Sphynx).

If that's the case this got blown up way out of proportion. If not, then I'm shaking my head.

16. You can milk

anything with nipples.

[liberaltrucker]

18. Did she eat at Olive Garden enroute to the airport?

[miyazaki]

20. What, I thought everyone knows about cat nip.

?

[Trueblue1968]

21. OMG .... poor kitty cat.

[TomWilm]

22. My cat wanted me to breastfeed her ...

... whenever I was sitting shirtless, she tried out my nipples. Not much luck though, since I am a man.
