I worked with a fellow whose beloved jebel dog died and he buried it out in the desert. For the next couple of years, he went out and dug it up regularly to 'talk' to it.

I know of a colleague whose cat died. He was very upset to say the least. Anyway, he took the dead animal out to the wadi (a wadi is a valley) behind his house to bury it. He went to check on the grave the next day and much to his horror the grave had been dug up! He was sooooo upset. Expats and animals are a real big topic of discussion. I know of several expats who have taken it upon themselves to recue all the animals in the Kingdom.

There was a guy working for Saudi Arabian Airlines. He felt sorry for the feral cats on the compound and in the Souk opposite. He used to rescue them, give them medical treatment, feed them up and ship them back to Arizona. This over a period of MANY years!

I personally know one lady who rescues and adopts all the compound cats in her area. As of a couple of years ago she was sharing her house with18 cats. She has heaters and airconditioning units installed in her very large yard and has a wing of her house dedicated just for them. I feel sorry for the poor maids that have to clean their itter boxes. But bless her heart.....
