Ep25: Abandoned Cats in Saudi Arabia

In this episode, we’ll be delving into a pressing and often overlooked concern as we engage in a discussion with Sarah, one of our podcast hosts. Sarah’s unique perspective emerges from her research into the pervasive issue of cat abandonment in Saudi Arabia. Notably, she’s also an integral member of a small yet dedicated rescue team operating within a city in the country.

Sarah’s work is more than just academic; it’s deeply rooted in her active participation in the field, where she plays a vital role in rescuing abandoned felines. Her insights, therefore, offer a comprehensive understanding of the challenges faced by these abandoned animals and the efforts made to alleviate their suffering.

This episode marks the beginning of a series that will explore the multifaceted dimensions of cat abandonment in Saudi Arabia. We’ll examine the causes, the impact on local communities, and the tireless work being undertaken by individuals to make a difference.

Join us in this informative and insightful conversation as we shed light on the complex issue of cat abandonment in Saudi Arabia, and the dedicated individuals striving to create positive change. Thank you for tuning in to this podcast, where we begin our exploration of this vital subject.

Hosted by three postgraduate researchers, The Anthrozoology Podcast is a place for early career researchers to discuss current topics in the field.
