The Baganda proverb that aligns with the American expression "when the cat's away, the mice will play" is "Omusajja omutali mu maka, abakyala basula." This translates to "When the man is not at home, the women take liberties." Both sayings convey the idea that people tend to act more freely or engage in mischief when authority figures are absent.
