Hello, I'm new here, so please be kind :) Can anyone tell me whether there are any vets and boarding places for cats in and around Jubail, please? I can't imagine having to travel to Khobar or Dammam just to get to a vet. Thanks in advance.
Hi, The nearest vet I found was in Khobar, at Jeddah Vets. They are very professional, and will even drive to Jubail to pick up your animal if they can figure out where you are. I had to rent a car to drop my cat off to be spayed, but once there ... Read More

I was going to suggest you get a moped, babyHM, but oh, right, we're in Saudi, where you're forbidden to ride even a bicycle! (Hang on, have to check my closet to ensure all of my shorts are below the knee, wouldn't want to give anyone lascivious ... Read More

Yeah, I find if I hug the shoulder, stay on side roads, and make eye contact with anyone beside me at the lights (not to mention tailgating in traffic if it's heavy and slow) the psychotic drivers are manageable. Read More
