As one of what I suspect is a huge minority of people who've actually had pet squirrels (actually mine were chipmunks, but close enough I think?) I just want to
say how ridiculous it is that ANYONE would claim to have a squirrel for an "emotional support animal"...because they freak out in any sort of man-made trans-
portation...cars, buses, & planes areterrifying to them & they hide for days after. I know...I once flew home from overseas with my 2 chipmunks under my
seat as a (declared & specially-approved) "carry-on". (this was years ago, & a long story) So if anything, that crazy woman was the ESA for the squirrel!
And yes, this sort of self-absorbed infantile sense of entitlement that some seem to have just makes it hard for those who truly NEED an ESA. I don't even like
to see people smuggling their little doggies (& I LOVE dogs!) in their over-sized purses into stores & restaurants, where in theory it "hurts no one"...until it does.
The same kind of people who park in handicapped spaces at the store when they don't need it. That plane (in above story) was delayed for 2 hours...who knows
what havoc that caused people who had medical appointments or funerals to attend or a job interview? Geez...
