Something's got to give!

For those traveling with pets, here is some info for you:
Sparky Takes a Trip - But Will You (and OTHERS on the Plane) Survive It?

And if you thought AA example was "bad", look at this:
"Costs have gotten crazy: The way rates have gone up for pet transport in recent months
is a consideration. Let’s look at domestic pet-transport prices on Northwest, for example:
Northwest pet-in-cabin travel:
$160 roundtrip
Northwest pet-in-cargo travel: up to (take deep breath)
$718 roundtrip
NOTE: That $718 fee is for “canines of size” so if Sparky is a big boy and requires a giant-sized travel kennel (dog + kennel = 150 pounds), you’ll pay $718. Not sure I’d take a
child along at that price."
