You may want to check out the AVA site and the excerpt below. Its actually about S$15.00 per day if your cat is in an unair-conditioned room. If its an air-conditioned room, its more. (is your country in the list below? Then he wont need to be quarantined i guess)beanboy wrote:We are moving to Sing next Feb and are undecided whether we should bring our 11 year old cat. He is very much a house cat but we are afraid the 13 hour flight might be too much. Also we don't know whether the cattery's are any good in Singapore.
Should he stay or should he go!?
Yes, there are parks where u can take them for runs (off leash IF they are not fierce, chase and/or bite people) Best to have them on leash for a few times first till u get familiar with the place. Good that u pick up their pooh, very few singaporeans here do (er before u all start protesting, I am asian so this isnt a racist thing!) As long as you show the good example and pick up their pooh, and the do the right thing with them, its cool. Yes, they can run on the beach and u can take them for walks but NOT on buses, rarely in a cab, unless in a cage. Cant take them into supermarts and its not like in uk /.us where u can leave them outside to sit and then come out and pick them up... . Maybe certain areas where there are lots of expats with animals, might be some shops which dont mind u leaving the dog outside, but dont think many open to it.Nicola wrote:We are looking at moving to Singapore and have dogs, cats and tortoises. Can anyone tell me what life is like for cats and dogs in Singapore ? Can't leave them behind with family as we are currently in Middle East. Can I walk my dogs on the streets ? Are they accepted out there ? Am asking this as here dogs are seen as unclean and not allowed on beaches, in parks etc. I always clean up after them when we are out - and keep them on the lead in town, but there is lots of desert where I can take them out to run. Is there anywhere I could take them to let them off the lead for a good run over there ?
Any info/advise gratefully received.

Nicola
depends where u live. have u found a place to live and can u say what road its on, then i could give u an ideaNicola wrote:Thanks for the info - the dogs will have a ball running around on grass instead of sand !
Another question in the animal line - but wild ones this time ! Do yo usee many nasty things (ie. snakes) in gardens etc ? We very rarely see them here thank goodness, but as a true snake-o-phobe this worries me !
Thanks for any info
Nicola
