over run with what??

I have never visited Taiwan, and probably never will have that opportunity, but, if you have the chance, here's something you might want to look into.  Once again this is information I would not have discovered if it weren't for my trusty page-a-day trivia calendar.  It seems that the tiny Taiwanese village of Houtong was once one of the country's major coal producers.  These days the mining industry has died off in that area but Houtong has become a tourist destination because they are, as the calendar says, "overrun" by cats.  Evidently cat lovers come to see all the cute kitties running around.  I have mixed feelings about this.  I am a cat lover, having had a few as pets over the years, but I think maybe cats, like so many other things are better enjoyed in moderation.  I remember once, on a bus ride through Portugal, we stopped at a charming village with an amazing view of some ancient walls.  We had time while there to enjoy refreshments in a local restaurant/bar.  We chose to take our drinks out to the arbor shaded patio.  It was a lovely cool place to sit and enjoy the view and the breeze, but there were a lot of cats roaming around.  They weren't bothering us exactly but there were a lot of them.  I'm not sure if I would enjoy a whole village full of cats.
