Corrected entry: The cave of wonders originally states that "only ONE may enter here" emphasizing the number one. Yet Aladdin is able to enter with Abu. And it's not that it doesn't count because he's he's an animal as it is Abu that sets off the booby traps inside. And if animals didn't matter, then Jafar could have just sent Iago inside to grab the lamp.

Correction: The emphasis on ONE does not mean just one singular person but rather a particular individual, as the Cave states "one who's rags hide a heart that is pure, a diamond in the rough", meaning Aladdin. Abu was able to enter the cave as well because he was accompanying Aladdin. Iago wouldn't be able to enter because he works for Jafar, who's heart is far from pure. It's the same reason why the cave collapsed on the thief who also worked for Jafar in the opening scene.

Correction: It would seem the cave considers Abu a pet, so he doesn't count as a person. And as is usually the case, you are responsible for the actions of your pet, up to and including stealing magical jewels from a cave of wonders.
