Student flushed her 'emotional support' HAMSTER Pebbles down the toilet after Spirit Airlines banned it from traveling with her

So she was obviously able to fly without the aid of her support animal so she's full of shit.

She's also a psychopath and horrible human being.

Wouldn't a hamster clog the toilet?

Her 1st name of Belen means Bethlehem in Spanish, FWIW

Jail time for this animal abusing fucking CUNT.

seeking celebrity for pet murder? what planet is this

Belen was most certainly NOT my emotional support human!

Someone should cut her up and flush her down the toilet. What a disgusting person.

Unbelievably cruel. Why didn't she just let it loose? Someone would have picked it up. Even if it still got killed, at least it would have a chance. I don't get her "logic" of choosing to drown the poor fucker as being the kinder option. Either way, her going public with the story will backfire.

I guess the support was a one-way street, cunt.

poor hamster :(

I mean...

and why hasn't she been arrested for animal cruelty?

She deserves all the shaming she’s receiving.....and she should be cited and fined and her lawsuit dismissed with a lecture about what a small, fraudulent, sniveling excuse of a person she is...

I once tried to bring my emotional support hermit crab, Farquhar, on a Southwest flight from LA to SF, and was denied. I should have just put it in my carryon, but, no, I had to conspicuously carry him in his cardboard box with holes, and the security kept an eye on me so I didn’t just pocket him.

Luckily my parents had driven me to the airport and could take him home. They mailed him to me in a box packed with popped popcorn and he arrived safely and feistier than ever.

Since the airline originally made the mistake and told her she could bring her pet, they could have at least put it in the cargo hold - I am assuming there was a cage for it. Isn't that what they do with other animals? If not it should have been left with the airline who could make sure it was picked up by animal control. I just can't imagine flushing it down the toilet as though it was the only option. Both parties are skanks for this but I hope this girl does not get any money out of this. Frankly I am tired of this emotional support animal stuff to begin with - the best emotional support when flying is a xanax or two!

The bottom line is she didn't need the emotional support hamster after all...drowned it in a toilet and hopped on board.

I have a killer shark as an emotional support animal. I'll make a fuss if they won't let me fly with it.

She couldn't beg arriving passengers to please adopt Pebbles? Somebody would have stepped up.

So she kills terrifies and drowns her pet so as not to miss a freaking medical appointment.

Well boo hoo. No punishment cruel enough for this one.

Is this a hoax?

Bipolar?

Flushing it down the toilet, putting it outside, or whatever, is animal cruelty. She is yet another irresponsible pet owner. I would hope there would be criminal charges against her.

I want to know more about this medical appointment she so desperately couldn't reschedule.

Wow I feel bad for the hamster, having such a cunt for an owner.

But flushing a hamster wouldn't harm the pipes. I once had a mouse in my flat, I flushed him.

Dwarf hamsters are small as a mouse. Can you imagine if it got loose? They can get through tiny holes such as an animal carrier has.

Americans are so dumb

You should have heard the commotion my emotional support tarantula caused.....

I got a rock.

Sick bitch. She deserves to be flushed down a toilet. Fucking cow.

An appropriate send off: In a clump of blue airplane toilet ice, hurling through the sky.

As it was being flushed, that baby hamster screamed out "Crazy, take the (hamster) wheel"

RedRum.

RedRum.............

"I told you we wuz hardcore."

What about a support gerbil?

If she were a friend, I would ghost her and I hope all her friends do likewise. She is contemptible...

She hasn't been arrested for animal cruelty because it's just a fucking hamster.

Some new information

R35, you sound reprehensible

This doesn’t make sense. I’m calling bullshit.

Oh FFS, check between your couch for some spare change and go buy a new one!

^between the cushions of your couch

You can't say that her diagnosis is incorrect, though. If anyone needed "support," it's this crazy lady.

The stress of air travel could kill a hamster. They’re pretty delicate and high-strung.

I don’t understand these retards who think that it’s fine to expose their creatures to the stress of traveling.

The appointment was to remove a benign tumor on her neck. She freaked out about it so much that she dropped out of school and got this emotional support animal to cope.

But the airline says there were 9 hours between being informed she couldn't take the animal with her and her flight, so clearly she's got some big problems.

You're telling me in that 9 hours she didn't text someone for advice?

She's an idiot. All she had to do was get on her iphone and post an ad on Craigslist with the location of the hamster in the airport and someone would have come and picked it up. What she did was cruelty to animals and there should be laws against that. I don't believe for one second that the airline told her to flush her pet, she's a lying cunt!

She should be beaten in the head until unconscious and whatever falls out should be flushed. What a monster.

Didn't she have a carry-on that she could have put it in to sneak it through security? Something is not adding up here. It was a hamster, not a donkey...

"If Spirit Airlines told you to jump of the roof would you do it?" And yes, I totally believe Spirit employees told her to do that. They have no souls, any of them.

[quote]I want to know more about this medical appointment she so desperately couldn't reschedule.

Isn't it obvious?

If only her mother had flushed her.

[quote]She was also in pain due to a benign golf ball–sized growth on her neck.

Why the fuck did she let it get that big to begin with?

And why the fuck did she think it would be a good idea to go public with this story?

Is she being dragged yet?

[bold]#JusticeForPebbles[/bold]

Well, that ended up looking crappy : (

It's awful -- what happened to Pebbles -- but I immediately laughed at this. I can see all of her crazy, desperate angst. If it's that important you, pay the change-ticket fee and take the next flight.

LMAO, R5

What a bitch for doing that!

I prefer to think on Pebbles lying on a warm beach somewhere....the toilet whisker her out to sea, and she made it to land.

Free at last, free at last...god'amighty, Pebbles is FREE AT LAST!

I need an emotional support hamster after reading that story. Poor Pebbles, she deserved better than that bitch.

[quote]Wouldn't a hamster clog the toilet?

No it wouldn’t.

Belen’s sisters Fargaret and Messica could not be reached for comment.

[quote]R58 Poor Pebbles, she deserved better than that bitch.

I know! Pebbles supported her thru so much. But then she's going to delay the owner's trip to Florida, and it's DOWN THE CRAPPER!

[bold]iStandWithPebble

This stupid bitch has brought shame to the whole state of Florida

How ironic if the doctors appointment the owner supposedly had to rush home for was a therapy session.

According to the news she has a replacement hamster now.

R64 WHAT responsible pet store would allow this monster to adopt [italic]another [/italic] hampster after what happened to Pebbles???

This broad's pic needs to be taped by every cash register in every pet store in the country!

R64, even though I’ve met a few women named Belen, your post made me snort out my ice cream.

Oops! I meant R60.

Pebbles is gone, I hope she's drifting out to sea. She always loved to swim away. Maybe she'll find an island with a shady tree, Just like the one in our backyard.

R68 murderer

What a stupid, horrible little girl.

R70 [italic] Can't you see she needs emotional support???

She's a disordered mental case Millennial who was just trying to get her pet to her next residence free of charge. What a horrible thing to do to an animal but the hamster is probably better off dead than with her as its owner.

If she really cared about the hamster she would have given it away to a family with kids who would appreciate it and take care of their new pet.

This is the EXACT type of person who flies Baltimore to Fort Lauderdale.

"Emotional Support Animal" at the airport is code for moving your pet from one residence to another for free. Because it can't go on the moving truck.

Seems to me that as a self-proclaimed animal lover, she would have known to call some kind of shelter or sanctuary. The kids with their Google these days - it shouldn't have been too difficult. Plus, she took the flight that left 9 hours later so she, you know, had a bit of time...

LOL R57.

Kudos, R60. that was good.

"WHAT responsible pet store would allow this monster to adopt another hampster after what happened to Pebbles???"

They're hamsters. I know it's not PC to say, but they're hamsters, and a lot of people don't see them the same way as a dog or a cat.

As much as she's being justifiably shit on here, the airline is at fault. She passed through how many people who told her she could take the animal on the flight? Sorry, but that's on the airline and they should've done more to help her, IMHO. She wasn't some entitled frau who bullied her way through two staff members, raising hell. She called beforehand & was also OK'd by someone at the terminal. It was only a third person as she reached security who stopped her.

As a flyover shut in, wasn't there an airline commercial with a pet turtle being denied on a flight, and the staff taking care of it, or am I imagining it? Point being, it wouldn't be out of line for an airline to anticipate this problem and not be dicks about it.

He's gone to Hamster Heaven.

[quote]“She was scared. I was scared. It was horrifying trying to put her in the toilet,” Aldecosea said.

Well, I imagine so.

It's not the airlines fault she killed the hamster. No responsibility these days. They admitted the agent on the phone told her it was okay. They switched her flight to nine hours later. They offered to give her airfare. No the conditions aren't ideal, but it didn't necessitate her killing the animal. She's full of shit. She didn't need it for emotional support and if she really, really did, she would have rescheduled her appointment and waited to make the necessary accommodations.

Here's a legitimate question.

She says all her roommates or whatever were however far away. Fine.

She took a flight 9 hours after her original one... which, I don't know. Seems like if her friends couldn't get to her she could have had enough time to go back home and drop the hamster off?

r81 my point was it wouldn't have gotten to that level if airline staff had done their jobs. That's not a complicated request, either. She was very clear about what it was, how she was carrying it, and why it was needed (which was complete bullshit, but that's another issue).

It was the Thanksgiving weekend, so her saying she couldn't get a hold of anyone is reasonable, and the article linked @ r36 said she was too young to rent a car. (That assumes there'd even be one available on a holiday weekend anyway).

I agree with the person who said to try social media, but again on the busiest holiday of the year in America, how likely is it? Since it was the airline's mistake on a softball issue, I think they should've done more for her. And I'm not absolving her of responsibility for killing an innocent animal, either.

It's all very [italic]Medea[/italic]-like.

Who will play her in the Lifetime Original movie?

[quote]It was the Thanksgiving weekend, so her saying she couldn't get a hold of anyone is reasonable, and the article linked @ [R36] said she was too young to rent a car. (That assumes there'd even be one available on a holiday weekend anyway).

She was at the Baltimore Airport... there are plenty of public transportation options and a new thing called Uber. Where was she coming from?

If she was expected over the holidays then a family member would have been checking for her texts.

Thank goodness she didn't have an emotional support gorilla.

^ Or an emotional support pet spider. If she did then I would have needed an emotional support animal to combat my fear of spiders.

When I was in college in the early 00s, I had a pet goldfish. Before the liquid ban, I would fly home over winter break with my fish as a carry-on.

I checked with the airline's website and there were specific instructions detailing how it needed to be packed. I called the airline, they gave me the same specific instructions. I checked TSA's website, etc. I packed my fish according to the instructions and never had an issue for 3 years- 6 trips total. My senior year, the liquid ban went into effect. I got a ride- 9 hours home- so I could bring my fish home for the month. Looking back, I was a little crazy, but I certainly would have found any other accommodations before I'd consider flushing it.

Fuck this psycho bitch. It's not hard if you actually give a shit about your pet.

This thread is hee-larious. I have guffawed several times. Sometimes the comedy & senses of humor among the DL readership have me in tears. So glad this place exists.

Thinking on it, aren't ALL pets "emotional support animals"? I mean, you don't get them just because you need another mouth to feed, or because the state's sending you a check...!

What if she had a baby? Would she flush it too?

What a heartless witch.

[quote]What if she had a baby? Would she flush it too?

Then, Datalounge were cheer her on!

When one gets on a flight with passengers who are too fragile to make the trip without "emotional support" I'm more concerned about the unhinged going berserk while in the air.

Anyone travelling with an emotional support animal needs to be kept an eye on.

The way they go on they could lose it at any moment 30,000 feet up!

Only in America!

Now I won't be able to listen to '80s pop hits "Girlfriend" or "Mercedes Boy" or watch reruns of "The Flintstones" without sobbing uncontrollably.

🐀 Je Suis Pebbles !

Sil vous plais, Justíce Pebbles!

[quote]Sil vous plais

Imbécile illettré. S'il vous plaît

She’s going to have to change her name. Dumb cunt ruined herself and this will follow her forever.

Homer's support lobster

If she had just left the poor thing on a table somewhere, or in one of the airport stores on a counter, SOMEONE would have taken it home eventually, once he wasn't claimed.

She should have found someone in the airport with an emotional support snake, sat down next to them, and let nature take its course.

R102 Only if the snake was big enough to make a meal of the dumb cunt student.

This emotional support animal garbage has to end. Trained service animals only. I'm tired of these cheap idiots abusing it. Clearly this girl is too dumb to be flying unattended.

Florida!

R44, airports take issue with anything not being watched as personal belongings. It’s the times we are living in.

I am really hoping this was a hoax and the hamster did not get flushed. If it’s true, she is a psychopath. I am saying a silent prayer that the next person who recognizes her cold cocks her right in the grill.

I would hint her down, tape her to a seat smke her watch videos of hamsters while I slowly stick a serrated knife in her pussy and cut up through her guts. Then id make sure she hate he er own instetines until the gagged on them. Then I'd slit het throat and dump her in the garbage like she did to that poor hamster.

This woman is a psycho and does not deserve to live at all.

She should have called me. I know what to do with pebbles.

Here's what I don't understand- why the heck didn't she just ask someone- ANYONE- to take Pebbles as their own, if indeed she JUST HAD TO KEEP HER STUPID APPOINTMENT?!

I have a dog that I love dearly. And there is no way I would let anything come between us. If I were in that girl's shoes and was afraid for my pet to be out in the cold, I sure wouldn't kill it as an alternative! I would give it to someone, begging and pleading that someone take it and take care of it for me- or even make a deal that they can send the pet to me later, at such and such address, and that I would pay the cost. But, kill it? No f-ing way!!

I'm very angry, but I don't want to hate that woman. However, it's so very easy to hate her. I am filled with hate for what she dis, that's for sure!! But, if she really was of the mind that she was being merciful to her pet, then I just feel really sorry for her, that she wasn't bright enough to think of another way.

Who the fuck does that? She should have let the hamster go. She's cruel. She should he fined.

R108: Marry me!

What a waste of a hamster.

I wonder who was the fucking idiot who came up with this "emotional support animal" bullshit?

As pointed out upthread, why didn't she sneak it on?

When I was a college student, many years ago, I lived alone with my cat. All my family out of state, so I traveled and always busy on holidays--mostly for Christmas. Well, I had very little money, but every time I took an airplane home, I paid my own ticket, my cat's ticket (which was expensive) and the required pet health care certificate (also not cheap). Airlines make you pay extra for traveling with a pet, and for that extra you get nothing--only being allowed to put your pet under your seat, where your carryon would be. I always felt so much for my college cat--the best pet I ever had, since he went everywhere with me. I remember I even had to take him into the airline bathroom into the stall with me (since you can't level bags or anything unattended). He hated the airline bathrooms but it was part of our routine for 10 years--it was loud, crowded, smelly, terrifying for him to hear people walking and flushes. But he knew I was right there with him, watching over him, when he was helpless in his pet porter. He went through that to be with me. I would l have sooner chopped myself into pieces and flushed pieces of my own body down the toilet than flush my cat. Once I was on a flight and a man complained about my cat and tired to get the stewardess to take him and put him in cargo (because the guy hated cats) and I refused and threatened to walk off the plane, so the airlines finally gave my cat his own seat, though he (of course) had to remain in his porter.

Why couldn’t she get an uber to the nearest animal shelter and drop it off? Sure, they would not look kindly on her as a pet owner Andrew. she would not likely get it back, but it’s better than MURDERING it.

I like how our resident hetero serial killer at r107, the guy who is always talking about stabbing and raping women, is calling someone else a psychopath.

I wondered that too. I guess she "had no time" because her flight was soon. Yet she supposedly cried in the stall for ten minutes. I'm sure she could have pawned the poor thing off to someone who was staying in town. I know if someone came up to me and said they have to leave their hamster that I would take him in. If I couldn't keep him at least I could find someone who could. She's a gross person and I don't think the airlines owe her anything.

As a hamster owner (demeaning I know, to be the grownup owner of a child's pet, don't ask) there are certain things that are just obvious. One, travel stresses hamsters, you absolutely shouldn't be trying to take them on a fucking plane. Two, you made the decision to have a pet, you are responsible for it, it's life matters, and you can't divest yourself from the responsibility by flushing it down the fucking toilet. Just cancel the journey and go home! She should be banned from having any other pet, psychotic bitch...

That's awful!

would an animal shelter take a hamster?

If a hamster got loose on a plane, couldn't it eventually chew up some wiring or some shit and get everyone killed?

Hopefully this vile stinkfish will be tortured to death somewhere sometime

This is really troubling. If the ASPCA, the APA, AMA et al serve any purposes, they need to get on this vile trend. Dogs for blind people—OK, yes. For elderly people, yes. But this is wrong in so many ways.

Animals shouldn’t be put at the mercy of people who are fucked up in the head and lonely, and scams like the one at this link need to be done away with for good.

I googled ‘emotional support animal.’ This was one of the first results, a paid ad telling people for a $99 fee they can get an emotional support animal prescription to get around no-pet policies. This is not what service animals are for, and neither are they for sacrificing to deranged attention-seeking narcissists.

After she flushed pebbles and cried for ten minutes, what did she do with the remaining 8+ hours?

R125 Selfies, duh.

It is more stupidity being encouraged by the internet

How different is this creature (the woman) from an insecure man from a Dr. Phil episode who is behind bars because he beat his wife who he “loves so much” to death? Some people are too disturbed and lack too much empathy to exist in society.

United Airlines say requests have risen by 75% to 76,000 in a year.

Delta has faced requests to carry "comfort turkeys", possums and snakes. And it says staff have faced biting, growling and barking animals, as well as urination and defecation.

R129 Attention seeking motherfuckers.

Listen, I have had severe social anxiety and panic disorders to the extent that aside from going to work because I had to, I mostly stayed home. I would not have been more at ease walking through a grocery store with a great dane or riding Amtrak with a porcupine on my shoulder. That’s bullshit. I kept to myself and I sought out therapy and worked through it. Animals are not meant to be novelty human sidekicks. They are sovreign beings, not lithium available by prescription to every deranged person who shuffles along.

She should have put Pebbles up her vagina.

She should be hung out in public stocks for a week so that she can be mocked and jeered without any emotional support—at the very least. She flushed a living animal that she claimed was there to comfort her down a toilet. She needs to be taught several lessons: She has no empathy. The world does not exist to comfort her at her whim and at her disposal. There are consequences for injuring other people and other animals. There are reasons no one is willing to be kind to or near her without a doctor’s order. She needs to learn these things if she is going to be allowed to continue to interact with society.

Whatever, Dyke, r117. Cone at me bitch and ill slash your throat to your fucking windpipe. Women like u do not deserve to live.

Rob Porter @ R134, don't you have a desk to clean out this morning?

R108 Get in line bitch.

R122 Airline equipment are full of rodents already. It is a major problem, and exterminators regularly service all the aircraft.

They come on in catering carts and find their way all through the plane, and yes, there is great concern for wiring integrity.

[quote]I wondered that too. I guess she "had no time" because her flight was soon.

She had 9 hours to figure it out.

Seriously though. She got through Security, right?

Is she just a dumb cunt or did she do it on purpose?

Because any half thinking person would have realized all they had to do was stick the hamster in their bag, walk on the plane, and not say anything.

"Sorry ma'am, you don't have a ticket for your son to board the plane. He can't fly for free anymore."

9 hours later: "Officer, the toilet is clogged".

Omg, I just found out about this. WTF is wrong with this woman???? Really,???? She flushed her pet down the fucking toilet???? I baby my pets to death. I even heat up their evening dinner, and coddle them like nobody’s business. I couldn’t even imagine flushing one of them down a toilet.

This bitch just ruined the rest of my day.

CUNT. I wish I was allowed to punch people like this. They need and andvit would be a good way to relieve my pent up anger.

Has anyone flushed her down the toilet yet?

Thanks, liberals, for the concept of emotional support animals. It gets more and more difficult to be a progressive.

Liberals are not progressive anymore

R144, wtf do liberals have to do with this? I’m a liberal, and I fly with one of my pets. I pay an extra $150.00 for flight each way, and I make sure she always has her vaccines. And if I was told that I couldn’t bring my hamster on board, I’d either find another airline that would allow it, or I’d get in a fucking Uber with it, and go back home. I certainly wouldn’t flush any pet down a toilet, or abandon it.

Your comment pisses me off. I am an excellent and responsible pet owner, and I don’t understand how you think that the progressives have manufactured situations or policies that put personal pets at risk.

If you cannot board an airplane with a pet, then don’t take the pet, or don’t fly!

God, sometimes I pray for a serial killer that preys on animal abusers. Nobody would even try to catch him.

Start with this bitch. Like Michael Vick and his dog fight asshole behavior, what kind of human has the capacity to flush their pet down the toilet, no matter what it is? What a cunt.

Thank God they didn't make that lady flush her emotional support peacock down the toilet.

LOL. There's some woman on FB with a very similar name (Belen Aldecoa) - and with blonde hair, no less - and all the AJW's are bombarding her page with hamster related memes and nasty comments.

Needless to say, it's not her - but the poor girl's about to go into hiding.

She may have become angry for whatever reason and flushed Alvin out of anger, and now wants someone else to take the blame.

[quote]WTF is wrong with this woman????

She's still in school. And I would guess has never been away from home in her life before.

Apparently the real world confusses her.

She has tattoos and a nose-ring. This shouldn't come as a surprise. What an asshole.

It certainly confusses me r151!

Someone grab her by her hair, hold her head face down in the toilet bowl, and flush it a few times just to scare the hell out of her.

R146, well said.

[quote]Someone grab her by her hair, hold her head face down in the toilet bowl, and flush it a few times just to scare the hell out of her.

I just hope it doesn't escalate from there....!

Would Pebbles the hamster, swirling through the pipes toward a certain death, act sort of like a Rotor-Rooter cleaning snake and dislodge any potentially pipe-clogging debris and/or obstacles while en route to her demise? If so, that’s GREAT news for the airport’s plumbing-maintenance costs!

R157 I guess if poor Pebbles were desperately gnashing her teeth and clawing, it's possible.

Let's not think about it.

Moment of silence....

From Pebbles, beyond the beyond:

PETA‏Verified account @peta Follow Follow @peta

We are working to get her charged with animal cruelty. Just a phone call could have saved this animal from a horrific death

[quote]Flushing it down the toilet, putting it outside, or whatever, is animal cruelty. She is yet another irresponsible pet owner. I would hope there would be criminal charges against her.

Where's the link to her social media? Need to troll.

I hope PETA gets her.

I wish nothing but the toilet for her future.

[quote]R159 From Pebbles, beyond the beyond:

Somewhere, Pebbles is smiling. And we all hope, SINGING!

Why didn't she pull a Richard Gere and shove it up her ass? She has two stinkholes and didn't even use one of them? These twinkettes of today have no imagination at all......

I know.

smh

I know where she could have hidden it!

Deary @ R165 that was already used up @ R163. You should have used the Rod Stewart example instead. Yes she should have swallowed the gerbil!

R164 I don't know. RME GFY GSGGUYA AKA Go stick Gere's gerbil up your ass!;)

She should have to spend 9 hours inside Richard Gere’s ass.

If you need a pet to fly, then maybe you shouldn't be flying. Drive with your pet to your destination if you can't handle the stress of planes or take a valium and suck it up. Airlines need to ban all "emotional pets", it's become a big joke.

The ASPCA and similar animal-rights organizations need to work to ban ‘emotional support’ animals. There is a world of difference between service dogs for blind people and emotionally disturbed people who are granted licenses to drag or carry around captive animals as personal shock absorbers. It’s fucked up. Non-human animals are sovreign beings, not put here as accessories for people too revolting to find human friends.

Fun fact: If Belen lived in the southern hemisphere, Pebbles would have spun towards her watery death in the opposite direction!

Rumor has it Belen had to go out and buy TWO hamsters to emotionally support herself after losing Pebbles.

Pebbles got off easy.

I guess Pebbles won't be giving her owner the "Benefit of the Doubt" anymore.....LOL

Her intelligence is pulp.

PULP.

Pebbles could still be alive, feeding off radioactive waste in the sewers of Florida, 100x her original size and now with 4 rows of razor sharp teeth. Biding her time.

R172, she got two so that when she flushes A, she'll still have B to comfort her in her grief over flushing A.

Wtf? Is this like Harry Potter now, everyone can bring their rat,cat or owl?
