They follow Taoism and Confusianism. First get your facts right. There are Buddhist but not as numerous as you would think.

first the Chinese are not all Buddhist some are followers of Confucianism also Chan Buddhist were strict vegetarians but Chan Buddhist are now hard to find most are zen Buddhist who are not as strict P.S. Taoism is form japan

i guess they do not consider cats and rats meat....

Not all Chinese people are Buddhist, that's why.
