I know strange question but just so I know what kind of food in Chinese's is ok to eat (I always worry its dog or cat am eating!). Like chicken, I figure that can just be chicken, I hope....

I agree with Roman H, I know dogs and cats (especially) go missing, but turning up on your plate - I don't think so!! - not in this country anyway.
Have to admit to seeing the rabbits hanging up in the butchers. My mum makes a mean rabbit and pork (salted/brine) stew! Not many sell rabbit now, which is a pity.
As Jeep says, soaked in salt water to clear the blood, it will become whiter. Young rabbit fried in breadcrumbs - delicious!!

I have three cats and I find they get bored of their food very quickly. I just keep changing the brand every week. They seem to eat better when I do that. Also as soon as she finished her food throw away the remains so she has fresh food for every meal. I don't think it matters if she just eatscat biscuits as long as they're 'complete'. I know some people only feed their cat the complete biscuits (just ensure it says complete on the box, as this will provide all the nutrients a cat needs). I think as long as she's eating something there is no need to worry. But, if she's starting to look too thin or she's still having diarrhea get her into your vets.

Get real, Alsatians, cats, these are all urban myths spread by ignorance.Do you really think someone running a restaurant would waste their time skinning a cat when they still have all the vegetables to buy and prepare.The meat they can buy at the same time and it comes cheap enough, plus they don't waste much.If the restaurant is in business then they will be making enough money to afford proper meat and remember this is Britain, we do have Trading standards and health inspectors.
I think you should worry more about E.coli from dodgy pies at roadside cafes.

It would be about the same color as rabbit. When I first moved to the south an old black lady was looking for rabbit meat and I told her I saw a sign with someone having them for sale.
She said to always buy rabbit meat with the foot on it to make sure that it wasn't cat. I would think that it would be dark and similar to beef.
I've about had it with my cat sitting up on top of my convertible car getting cat hairs all over it and possibly damaging it. Give me a couple of more days with him doing that and I'll get back to you with first hand experience.

Not a strange question at all! When I was a kid rabbits were always hung at the butcher's with their heads on.
My nan said that that had been so as long as she could remember (b.1882) so that they were seen not to be cats.
If you've never had rabbit ( & my wife won't have it in the house) it's like chicken with a bit more taste, & pinkish in colour.
Cat colour I suppose...

A chinese restaurant by where I used to live got shut down for having skinned cats in his freezer. Apparently he was using them as chicken, and nobody realised. So I guess they look like, and taste like chicken.
My advice: go for the beef dishes, although that could be dog meat! Maybe prawns is your best bet!

"meat" is a word reserved for animal flesh that is prepared for humane consumption.... that aside, the flesh a a cat is identical to rabbit meat, possibly a fraction sweeter according to a butcher who once explained to me that the reason why rabbit is always sold with its kidneys still attached to its backbone, a cats kidneys are level across its back and a rabbits are staggered one in front of the other. this practise started in the second world war when food (meat) was in short supply.

No idea...
Rabbit (soaked in salt water - whitens the flesh) is similar in texture and colour to chicken, and used to have the nickname 'underground chicken' because of the similarity.

It's another white meat, according to the bumper sticker. As with any meat, the more muscular areas would have darker meat (and more fibers/tendons).

It's not the colour so much as the unidentifiable cuts of meat. Steer clear of Cantonese cuisine...........
