I need any advice regarding travelling with a cat through PIA. I've called them several times and spoke to them in detail. They say one thing and it contradicts with the official procedure that I found in one of the PDF documents on the PIA website. So much so that the guy asked me to disregard it and do as he says.

I don't want some other randon guy at the airport to create any problem/confusion based on whatever guideline he chooses to follow over what some other person told me over the phone. I can't afford to get into any argument over this at that time.

For now, he just told me send some documents to the airport in Lahore and have the customs clear it. That has been done. But I wasn't asked to prepare any documents that I may need at the airport in Canada, in contradiction to the 'official guideline on the PIA website'. I sent him pictures of the pet carrier and he said it seems okay and there shouldn't be any problem. Thats about it.

Please share your experiences and encounters if any.

I'd suggest you try contact some other guy. I believe travelling with pets does require you to show proper documentation at both places. A second opinion never hurts eh?

he can just lie and say its an artifact...or a mummy...or hes a fur merchant..or just a cat-fur scarf..so many possibilities..
Too much hassle.

My butt-stuffing idea is the best one in this thread so far.

just follow the guidelines and disregard the guy. If there's a problem, at least you'll have more to say that "this guy told me so i did it". Contact a travel agent, contact people on a travel forum, google international guidelines, google airport guidelines.

If you don't want so much hassle, follow Chandoo's footsteps, if they detect a cat-like behavior like meow from your butt...just say it's catofartomonia.

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.
