Onboard the tall ship Royal Albatross, the animals can lounge in custom-built"cat-bana" cages as their owners enjoy a four- or seven-course dinner beside them on deck.
For two-and-a-half hours, up to 15 feline and 130 human passengers sail along the resort island of Sentosa, enjoying views of Singapore's skyline and a short fireworks display. The ship has hosted over 2,000 dogs since 2021, and the cat cruises may soon catch up, with more than 200 tickets for human passengers -- priced at Sg$225 each -- having already been sold.Visitors pet a cat on the Royal Albatross, a luxury tall ship that hosts sailing and dining experiences around the waters of Singapore with pets allowed. - AFP
The company running the cruises, Tall Ship Adventures, says it consulted with experts and cat welfare organisations such as the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals to ensure a safe experience on board.
