Mikhail Galin, 34, took his cat Viktor on board flight SU1702, from Moscow to Vladivostok, Aeroflot said. Under Aeroflot's rules, pets weighing more than 8kg (17lb) must be placed in the luggage hold.
Because Viktor was too heavy for the passenger cabin, Mr Galin devised a cunning plan. ...
A day later Mr Galin returned to the airport with the smaller "cat double", which passed the weight limit test at the check-in desk. Mr Galin then gave the smaller cat back to its owners at the airport before boarding the plane to Vladivostok with Viktor.
the bad news? He got caught after he posted the story on his facebook page, and was punished by losing his frequent flier miles.
