I agree that there is a big imbalance between cat and dog references. I don’t think it’s anything to do with street dogs though. Wealthy Indonesian households have pampered pooches that don’t roam the streets (much like Western countries) and I think I’ve seen almost as many unhealthy stray cats (kucing yang tersesat) as dogs in many Indonesian cities. So my rival theory is that it’s because Duo is a bird, and of course he is obsessed with those evil cats!
