It depends on which "Asians" you mean.

China has both dog and cat meat, but they're not very common. Koreans and Vietnamese do have dog meat, but they do not usually have cat meat. Japanese do not eat cats or dogs.

Mainstream South East Asians (excluding Vietnam) do not eat dogs or cats at all. This is because a significant portion of them are Muslims, and the consumption dog and cat meat is a sin in Islam. Singaporeans and Thais usually view dogs and cats as pets, and consider eating them taboo.

Most Indians do not eat dogs, but there is a small tribal region that does. Central and West Asians are predominantly Muslim and so they do not eat dogs.

Also, cat and dog eating is not something purely Asian. Both cats and dogs are eaten in places in Europe, Africa and even America.
