Ye, same for cats as well, though they tend to fare better in terms of “village” care, in that the people living in the area will care for the cat together.
The issue is lack of vet care and lack of neutering/spaying. Once that becomes for available and frequent there won’t be so much of an issue.
Visiting SE Asia is really sad when you’re an animal lover, seeing the harsh reality of the average dog out there is hard to ignore, and far too big a problem for the individual to fix, so it’s a helpless, hopeless feeling as well.
If I ever hit it rich, I’m setting up spay/neuter clinics in that area, along with skin treatment clinics. I’ll send teams out to tranquilize and treat the wild dogs and cats and neuter them.
All over, really. I saw it personally in Thailand and Indonesia, but I’ve had friends say they see the same thing in Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam as well. :( it’s just a very sad part of visiting that area.
