VIDEO : Just Outside Taipei You'll Find Houtong: A cat lover's paradise

About an hour's train ride from Taipei, there's a small village that has gone to the cats. Houtong once had a population of about 6,000 roughly 50 years ago. But the village's fortunes began to turn around in 2008 when a cat lover and blogger visited and shared photos of the village's many stray cats. Over the next couple of years, Houtong became something of a cat mecca as tourists came to visit the village taken over by 100 to 200 stray cats.
