Yeah, the 'cat facts' thing is a borderline spam thing. However, I can answer that I know people from China who had well-loved pet cats back home. I think eating cat and dog meat is more of a local thing to the south. In Shanghai, they sell cat meat in the streets, but in other places no one in my tour group saw it happening. BTW, I have been told that the dogs that are eaten there are specifically bred for their meat. So I guess some are considered suitable to eat and others are pets.
