This is just... unreal. Besides the other stuff, is it common in
China for people's pets to just be running around loose outside
or in apartment buildings? I can imagine that for cats but dogs?
\_ More likely they will end up on dinner tables in
restraunts.
\_ Personal observation: When I was there in '95, I saw _no_ stray
dogs (as opposed to places like Bangkok where feral and stray
dogs are ubiquitous), but I saw a lot of stray and feral cats.
The one mother dog I saw was in the zoo, locked up in a cage
separate from that of her pups, presumably to keep her from
eating them, as mother dogs are known to do. (Whaaa~?)
\_ Cats have parasites, so you can't eat them.
\_ random fact: SARS is harmless to cats. it just
passes through their system in a couple weeks, doing
no damage.
\_ That's what you dirty humans think. Stay away
from us - big cat
