Should airlines allow more pets in the cabin?

Background

Travelling in the cargo hold can be stressful for animals because of temperature, noise and separation, so many owners push for looser cabin rules. Others note that cabins are cramped, some passengers have allergies or phobias, and barking or accidents on long flights are real risks. Rules differ by airline, so checking ahead is essential.
