We shipped 5 dogs and 4 cats into Saudi a few years ago. A bit of a hassle but do-abe - just make sure you have import permits for all them and that all paperwork is stamped by the Saudi embassy in Dubai before leaving. Good Luck.

I also lived on the East coast, although not in Khobar. It is more relaxed there than some other parts of KSA. I would certainly think about moving back if need be.
