The Scoop: JetBlue Doubles Prices for Underseat Pets
All this talk of what the airlines are charging for the details, got me thinking about my lil detail, North. He loves being included in my life – and lets me know when he doesn't feel that way – but, boy, can the price of plane tickets get us down! When looking into a summer trip with my pooch this week, I realized a very shocking (and troubling) fact: JetBlue has doubled the price of a cabin pet from $50 to $100.

What better flying companion than a pooch! Mischa Barton took off from LA with best pal, Ziggy, on their way to begin filming The Beautiful Life in NYC.

Have You Ever Regretted Not Adopting?
My pet-less pal took a trip down to LA last week, and was totally smitten by a certain kitten that was for sale outside of a store. She told me that she hadn't even considered adopting a pet before, but something about that particular cat made her want to put it on the next flight home with her (think Samantha and Baby in the Sex and the City movie). Unfortunately, she didn't take kitty home, now totally regrets her decision, and thinks about "what could have been" every day since.
Nicodemus Is a Feline Flier With Evan Rachel Wood
It's not everyday we see a celebrity with her cat — it isn't that they get any less love, it's just not commonplace to bring them out in public for potty breaks and walks around the block.
Except at the airport since, when travels include that kitty companion, out their lil heads pop. This cute cat gets a helping hand out of his Sherpa (naturally) at LAX yesterday.

History Lesson: Laika, The Space Dog
There are plenty of recognizable dogs in history, but did you know the first animal in space was a stray dog? In 1957, a stray pooch found wandering the streets of Moscow was launched into space aboard the Sputnik II, as the first living creature to enter orbit. Laika may not be as well known as the Apollo 11 landing on the moon, but she was a hero during the time of the Russian/American space war and paved the way for human space flight.
