SINGAPORE: An owner of a luxury pet hotel was fined S$2,500 on Wednesday for using hotel premises as a pet shop to sell three pedigree cats for S$2,800 each.

The court heard that Tayler had eight cats in 2018 and kept them at the premises. She displayed photos on Facebook offering to sell them for S$2,800 each. Tayler managed to sell three out of the five cats she advertised for sale, despite being aware that a licence was needed to sell them, said the prosecutor.She had applied for the licence but her application was incomplete as she failed to submit further supporting documents, and did not follow up.The prosecutor asked for a fine of at least S$2,500, noting that Tayler had no previous convictions.

Tayler made the news six years ago when her hotel opened in Tanglin and was touted as the first five-star dog hotel in Singapore.
