I told him I’d never heard of any such thing. I was from the Appalachians. He gave me a break.

He gave you a break because you were a member of a minority!! 'Appalachian Hill People'! Don't laugh! it's true! They are a seldom referenced but recognized minority.

I'm a member of the 'Red Neck Swamp People' but they won't give us minority status.

Could he carry his pet cat and call it another occupant?”

Not sure - given a cape and a proper tiara my cat might consider being an occupant. Understand there is a move underfoot - probably originated in California - to require a harnass/seat belt contraption if you are going to take your pet in the car. Seems as how we switched from “it’s for the children” to “it’s for the other children”, known to most of us as our pets.
