I know Vegans usually have a lot of pets, do they feed their animals meat? If so, how do they justify this, since meat is murder?

    Speaking for myself, a vegetarian, not a vegan, I feed my cats meat because they are carnivores. People are omnivores and can live without meat.

    Wait, really? How do you know this exactly? I know lots of vegans, and most of them have no pets at all. I was vegan because it made me feel better. I'm no longer vegan, because sometimes eating a bite of ice cream is worth feeling like shit.

    Cats are carnivores. Dogs don't have to be, and neither do humans. What other animals are carnivores? Birds, fish, rodents...? Not seeing the connection.

    Not all vegans think meat is murder. Some vegans don't eat meat because of dietary reasons, or economic reasons, or environmental reasons. Or because they just feel like it. And not all pet food contains meat.

    I'm assuming you don't know any vegans, because you could have just asked one of them how they justify it. Yet, how do you know that vegans usually have a lot of pets if you don't know any of them personally?

    Life is full of mysteries.
