An Airline That Pet Sits, Deal on Travel Adapters & More

Headlines & highlights from around the web:

I love stories like this!Â Canadian North is going above and beyond to help evacuees from the Northern Alberta wildfires, many of whom are traveling with pets. In one case, a passenger went into labor and the flight operationsÂ team offered to look after “Meow Meow” in their office, even getting her an official badge and putting her in a supervisory role.

Our #YEG Ops people love Meow Meow @Deputy6720. She makes great coffee. We’ll definitely be sad to say goodbye 🙂 pic.twitter.com/DDKzFPn9eb

TopCashback is offering a crazy 21% cashback at REISS today only, stackable with their 15% site-wide discount (which you’ll definitely need on non-sale items).
Amazon has a daily deal on Europe/Asia plug adapters ending at 3PM. Get a pack of 6 for only $4.29 (43% off). I personally prefer to carry one universal adapter, but if you want a bunch of smaller profile plugs for your next Europe or Asia trip, this is a good deal.

Wondering what why some people got upgraded to the next level of status with United, including those without any status? According to reader AH, aÂ United rep told him it was basically a “lottery” pick to celebrate United’s anniversary and apparently people were calling in to complain that they weren’t chosen. What do you think–do people have a right to complain or should United just have done a better job of explaining their selection process up front?
