IRRITATED CAT FORCES AIR FLIGHT TO TURN BACK

VIENNA, Austria -- A plane was forced back to its origin after a bad-tempered cat attacked the pilot.

Gin was travelling to a cat show when he escaped from his cage after his owner fell asleep. He found his way into the cockpit, where he took an instant dislike to the co-pilot.

The cat was "very aggressive and scratched the co-pilot", forcing the crew to return to the airport, an airline spokesman said.

The plane, carrying 62 people from Brussels to Vienna, had been in the air for 20 minutes when it was forced to turn back.

The passengers were put on another flight to Vienna, without the cat and its owner.
