    When I lived in Melbourne I had a pet cockatiel. I had to get yearly check ups, and the only Avian vet was out in Burwood, so taxi it was.

    But every time I called to book a taxi, I told them I’m coming with a bird in a large cage and I could spill water. Just because I was worried about getting turned down for a ride.

    FYI, the taxi drivers always loved it.

      Yeah after that I always verbally confirmed that a cat would be riding with each booking from the new company. And then they automated bookings so I couldn’t anymore…
