Why doesn't it count as theft, if a cat is registered as somebody's property? China's constitution guarantees property rights; it doesn't make an exclusion for animals. Certainly if a farmer's cows were stolen by another farmer, the thief would be prosecuted for theft.
I wish I have to learn that there's no form of animal control nor any animal shelters in China as we would have in America. They do not seem to be a class that requires protection. I've seen several house pets simply left outside and their owners left town with a note on their neck. Do the Chinese love their pets or do they not?
If people will keep on showing that they care about their cats, and they will keep on rescuing them, and, possibly, complaining about the problem, I suppose that at one point the government will listen.
