Animal lovers were given the opportunity to give a cat a fresh start on Friday in Dubai.

The Animal Specialist Clinic in Dubai Jumeirah’s 1 hosted the last day of an event that allowed people to adopt a cat into their family.

Turkish angoras, domestic shorthairs, Persians and Arabian maus were just some of the breeds that were available for adoption at the event which was described as the emirate’s “biggest all-breeds adoption extravaganza”.

Anybody who is interested in finding out more about how to adopt an animal can contact the clinic on 04 343 540 or on their Facebook page.
