Hello KittyGato, and welcome to the forums.

I love a good proverb. My try at a literal translation in standard Arabic is:

الهر الذي يرتدي قفازا لا يصتاد الفئران
al-hirru alladhi yartadi quffaazan laa yaStaadu 'l-fi2raana


My try in Egyptian colloquial:

القط اللي يلبس جوانتي ما بيصتادش فيران
il-2uTT illi yilbis guwanti ma-byiStad-sh firaan

But for a definitive answer you can wait for a native speaker to reply.

Welcome,KittGato16, to the Arabic forum.

I see Josh's translation is literal though it is an idiom..
Which means if not mistaken:
لا ينفع الحذر مع القدر

 

[Mahaodeh]

الهر الذي يرتدي قفازا لا يصتاد الفئران

Just a simple mistake: يصطاد بالطاء وليس بالتاء

Aah, yes. Thanks for catching that.
