Boeing 737 Diverted by Cat Attack

A plane bound from Khartoum, Sudan, to Qatar was forced to make an emergency landing earlier this week when a stowaway attacked the pilot. The suspected terrorist was a cat.

According to reporting in Al-Sudani, the kitty was not a happy passenger, and proceeded to attack the captain. While the crew made every attempt to capture the aggressive stowaway, it proved impossible to get near the furry hijacker. Unable to continue the journey, the pilots set about returning to Khartoum, to the surprise of the passengers onboard.

While you might assume the naughty cat was an escapee from a passenger’s on-board belongings, it seems he was more likely to be a feral feline who sought a comfortable place to rest. Al-Sudani reported that the plane was stationary in the hangar overnight for cleaning and preparations. It is believed that the cat crept onboard and found a comfortable spot to rest in the cockpit.

There is no word yet on the condition of the pilot. Read more about this incident and other animal shenanigans on planes at Simple Flying. -via reddit
