You do know those cats are all strays that no one takes care of, right? People literally go there to abandon their cats. It's exploitative, and I've heard most cats there are disease-ridden furballs. Not to mention the place probably smells like cat piss everywhere.

What Taiwan doesn't need is a place where stray animals are romanticized or however you weirdos who go there think of them. Or did you not know Taiwanese are renowned for buying a cat or dog, realizing they can't take care of it/it's a lot of work, and then driving somewhere out of town to abandon it?

Most of the English-related material online appears to be uncritical (from my two minutes on Google), but if any of you lot can read Chinese, here's a good Facebook page related to how dumb Houtong is (also from the same two minutes on Google--different search though, of course):

Wasn't it only a few months ago the Vietnamese or indonesian immigrants were asked to stop eating the strays by some Minister or other.

I cant help but feel that's a little short sighted if the ministry.

In completely unrelated news I have to do a speech at a wedding in Kaohsiung this weekend. I think I have enough time to see some monkeys, any other suggestions spring to mind?

I hear it's pretty easy to slip onto a restricted military base and get some excellent photos of the ships in the harbor. Another goon might have more information though.

Pier 2 is a nice area with some interesting stuff.

Wakey Wakey is a restaurant / place to drink that's on Lotus Pond that is nice.

Yeah Pier 2 rules and if the weather's not poo poo there's a decent enough beach at Qijin, a short walk and ferry ride from Xiziwan MRT station.
