Belgium Passenger Jet Drama
A cat broke out of its cage about 20 minutes after take-off on a flight from Brussels to Vienna and ended up
in the cockpit where it scratched the co-pilot
"The cat was a prized animal that travels to cat shows around the world and had started wandering around the passenger cabin"

"The passenger (with the cat) was asleep and at that point the cat managed to escape the cage"
The cat named "Gin" slipped through the opened cockpit door as a flight attendant served lunch
The animal was "very aggressive and scratched the co-pilot" forcing the crew to return to the departure aerodrome
