I hope an Arabic newspapers in UAE agrees one day to publish similar articles, we need to create more awarness about animals.

It is just that my cats so far listen to me so if they go close to the wall, I go near them and shout NO, so they go again to middle of the garden and they are so funny because they keep jumping in the garden like rabbits :D However I don't think an Arabian Mau male cat will ever listen to what I say.. it really depends on how you raise the cat and which breed it is.

I moved to a villa recently in order for my cats to have a garden where they can play "under my eyes only" and since we moved, all they care about ifs going out to the garden. I have seen lot of cats allowed to go out around the area where I live and all of them are actually in good health but at the same time I saw many cat fights which is something I dont want it to happen to my cats. In addition to all that, everyday there is a new post of a lost cat.. So the rule is I go out with them in the garden for a play time between 15 to 30 mns in the garden and another half an hour at night when I am back from work. During weekends I give them more time and I sit with them but I dont let them go out of my sight and [b'>I don't allow them to jump on the garden's [/b'>[b'>wall.[/b'> I will never let my cats be outdoors without me watching them and it really depends from a cat to another and their personality. If you let your cats go outside without your supervision, you should be emotionally ready that one day they might get lost and will not return home. I am very glad of the new rules. The new rules are very much needed in this country You need to offer your services as a cat trainer/whisperer!

I let my cat on the patio, but she is just unable to get out - so she's not totally indoors and to be honest she's not vocal anyway..... there is just far too many roads around for her to be allowed to wonder around. Plus she is hyper aggressive when she sees other cats and doesn't have the fighting skills to back it up - much safer for her to be "grounded"

Izzy I have 4 cats and if I don't let them out they cry and cry and drive me nuts. I really don't think it is right to keep them locked up inside as they love playing out. I keep them inside whilst I am at work and during the night but once I get home from work I leave the door open so they can come and go as they please. And to be honest they really don't go far from the house. My eldest cat is now almost 6 years old and loves being outside and so far she has been fine. There is no way I could keep her inside all the time. I will add that every time we have move we have taken into consideration the area we move to and how busy it is plus making sure it is not to near a main road. We moved to a new villa in October last year and the neigbourhood is quiet not a lot of traffic going through. I am glad of these new rules, it is a step in the right direction.

I dont understand why pet owners let their pets wonder around when there are so many roads around.... I have sabotaged my patio so my cat can't get out......
