Houtong Cat Village is a tourist destination in Taiwan that is essentially a village-sized outdoor cat cafe. Once a mining village, they’ve since switched over to attracting tourists with the alluring promise of wandering cats and picturesque scenery. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the cats were all sweet and well-treated…which is better than some cat cafes. They’re stray cats that the entire village takes responsibility of. So are they still strays? It’s complicated, but the whole system seems to really work well.
