Hilltop Haven, Mount Washington, NY: Hilltop Haven Animal Rescue/Halfway House started March 2008. We rescue and transport animals from high kill shelters to no-kill rescues every weekend. Sometimes we do have animals available for adoption. The adoption fees from these babies helps to fund the transports that save 1,000's more. It also helps to pay vetting on the animals that are in need of medical care. Email: [email protected] Facebook Profile:http://www.facebook.com/hilltophavenanimalrescue

The Humane Society of the United States recommends that you do not transport your pet by air unless absolutely necessary. If you must transport your pet by air, your first decision is whether you can take your pet in the aircraft cabin with you, which is your best option. If your pet is a cat or small dog, some airlines will allow you to take the animal on board for an additional fee.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) allows each airline to decide if they will allow you to travel with your pet in the passenger cabin. If a commercial airline does allow you to bring your pet into the cabin, your pet container is considered to be carry-on baggage. Your pet container must be small enough to fit underneath the seat (generally about 10x15x20 inches and weighing less than 40 pounds). To find out about this option, call the airline well in advance of your flight, because there are limits to the number of animals allowed in the cabin area.
Another option available for pet owners not willing to brave the experience of flying commercially with an animal companion is flying on a chartered plane. Many charter services allow animals, regardless of size, to fly in the cabin as passengers close to their owners.
According to the American Veterinary Medical Association, in most cases cats and dogs should not be given sedatives or tranquilizers prior to flying. An animal's natural ability to balance and maintain equilibrium is altered under sedation, which can be dangerous when the kennel is moved. Whether flying as a cabin or checked pet, animals are exposed to increased altitude pressures, which can create respiratory and cardiovascular problems for dogs and cats which are sedated or tranquilized. Brachycephalic or snub-nosed dogs and snub-nosed cats are especially affected.
