I was in Shaanghai about a year ago, last week of the new year and had a blast. Loved the city and food! Didn't see a lot of cats or dogs for that matter

Did see dog on a restaurant menu, so I guess that keep the dog population down.
( just kidding)
Nah mate, no chop-chop dogs & cats in this part of China. Only happens in the south for some strange reason and this doesn't make Shanghainese and other Chinese very proud of - in fact they are repulsed and extremely embarrassed by this tradition.

Bad news tho... pets is a new trend here, just started about 10 years ago. We are infested with dogs and cats but naturally most owners keeps them indoor. Watch for dog poo when walking in the villa's garden here :/

ps. I have a pair of Rottweiler's (my most favorite hobby) so I'm not better than them
