An airport security worker made a stunning discovery in a traveller’s suitcase after an X-ray machine showed a live cat was trapped inside the bag, authorities said on Tuesday.
A traveller was at JFK International Airport in the US when security staff opened the suitcase that had been checked in, only to find an orange tabby cat stuck inside.
And in a plot twist, the cat didn’t even belong to the traveller.
Photos of the incident also show the cat’s ginger fur poking out the zipper.
“The cat did not belong to the individual with the suitcase, it belonged someone else in the household,” TSA spokeswoman Lisa Farbstein told NBC News.
