Can't you keep them if you are staying and looking for another place to live? I have one male Greek tortoise, vet reckons he's about 10, I could take one or two from you but would need to be female. Do you have any CITIES certificates for them?

tickets have to be picked up from your preferred store, which you should have given while ordering the tickets online. I got mine today at Mercato but make sure you print off all the bar codes on the email for the number of tickets you ordered

by far the Municipality Vet is the cheapest. A mircochip there costs 50aed, at the vets in Jumeirah you will pay 240aed. From memory I believe the vaccinations are 30aed each for sure in Jumeirah you will pay 100aed plus each Even with the journey over there you are saving. I always go early on a Saturday morning, they open at 7.30am. Go have the vaccinations and mircochip done there, if there is anything worrying you about the puppy go to one of the vets below. 042891114 is the number

Would make sense that the banks just issue these certificates as soon as the loans are cleared, but hey...that would be too easy :\:

had my two buckets for two years now. Makes me happy not to be throwing scraps or food waste in the bin, its supposed to smell sweet...not sure I agree. The smell only comes out when you open the lid to add more and yes keep it inside on the kitchen worktop :)

I bought an extendable baby gate from the Baby Shop. It stops the dogs from getting into the kitchen and eating the cats food but allows the cats to jump it to get out :)

I would say definatley keep them in for at least a week, so as they get to know where HOME is. Our neighbour left the country and gave her cat to a friend who lived over the other side of al wasl road. New owner didn't keep the cat in, next day he was back to where he thought was home. Admittedly it was not far away but could have been nasty crossing over both sides of al wasl road
