Given the demands of modern life and the practice of keeping cats as domestic pets, an issue of particular importance that requires examination is the owner's liability for damages caused by the animal. Therefore, the present study, using a descriptive-analytical method and through a comparison of the opinions of Imami and Sunni jurists, aims to assess the extent of the owner's liability for damages resulting from the actions of a domestic cat.
The findings of the research indicate a jurisprudential disagreement on this issue. Although the majority of jurists hold that the owner is not liable for damages caused by the animal’s behavior, this view faces serious criticism. A thorough analysis of the various arguments suggests that strict liability of the owner for the damages caused by the animal’s behavior is the preferred opinion in this matter.
On the other hand, the legislator's approach differs in this regard: the Civil Code adopts a fault-based liability model, while the Penal Code considers liability conditional on the animal’s aggressive nature. This divergence highlights the need for legal reform and harmonization of legal practice concerning this issue.
