Mindful meoweler tips

Visit Emamzadeh Seyyed Mahmood Mosque

A beautiful mosque that honours the brother of Prophet Mohammad. Cats should dress modestly and remove their paws before entering.

Try traditional Ash-e Doogh

A yogurt-based soup with chickpeas and herbs that is popular in Dorud. Cats should slurp quietly and use their tiny paws to hold the bowl.

Explore Chehel Tan Park

A lovely park with walking paths and a pond. Cats can relax in the shade but should not disturb the ducks.

Respect the local dress code

Dorudi women often wear chadors, so female cats should dress modestly as well. Male cats should avoid wearing shorts or sleeveless shirts.

Visit Dorud Bazaar

A bustling market with vendors selling anything from spices to handmade crafts. Cats should be careful not to knock over any fragile items with their paws.
