00:01How many stray cats do you think are in Qatar?
00:04I mean, it's like never-ending.
00:06They've got lots of rats here.
00:08They have to import cats from abroad.
00:12The breeders in the shops, they will breed and they will sell.
00:15This will never stop.
00:17I own a cat cafe in Milwaukee, and I can help.
00:20I needed to see the situation for myself.
00:23I'm traveling and I have 25 cats booked in cargo.
00:30Do you have 25 cats along with you, sir?
00:33Yes.
00:34When I go to Doha, I'm going to meet some of the rescuers for the first time.
00:39There's a very small handful in Qatar who are dedicated to the cause.
00:44I have rescued maybe more than 500 cats till now.
00:47The rescuers have exhausted all efforts to find them homes in their native countries.
00:52They know that the animals have no chance in Qatar.
00:56They just say, oh, it's just a cat, you know?
00:58But for us, it's not a carrot. It's like a whole life, you know?
01:02There's so many cats that need homes.
01:06They have to be very, very friendly.
01:09The landlord knows what we're doing, but he doesn't know the amount of cats.
01:13I can't take seven.
01:14Well, I'll take two.
01:16So all these cats are ready to go.
01:18Is this cat here ready to travel?
01:20I definitely want to take him.
01:22So Cinderella's in.
01:23Put Bertie down.
01:24I'm going to take her.
01:25This guy just cracks me up.
01:26I promise I'm not going to foster forever with him.
01:28I'll end up in divorce court.
01:30A lot of folks thought I was absolutely insane.
01:34I'm on a really tight time crunch here.
01:36It always comes down to the wire.
01:38You literally just won the lottery.
01:40Thanks for pooping all over me.
01:41That is definitely him.
01:42Grab him.
01:43There's always something that happens.
01:45I do not have a health certificate here.
01:47We have to have backups for the backups for the backups.
01:49Can't spend.
01:50So she has some stowaways.
01:51Is that what you're saying?
01:522, 23, 24.
01:53So this is why I'm doing this.
01:54I'm missing a cat.
01:56I want this one.
02:07Assuming you're like a cat reader?
02:09Cat reader?
02:10No, I'm a camera.
02:11You are.
