I am a Criminal

It's unfortunate that happened that way, but since it was a buffet, then I can kind of understand - altho I don't necessarily agree. I've seen people at buffets that overload their plates with more food than they could ever eat with the sole purpose of taking it with them, or even sharing with a non-paying member in their party.
If you were at a restaurant where you ordered a meal off the menu and didn't finish it, then you would be given a doggie bag to take the rest home, if you asked for one.
And you didn't let your Dream Cat down. Glad you didn't get in trouble, and I hope the people that ratted on you, have a dark cloud follow them for a long time! They should be ashamed!!!

Maybe you could ask them if they could give you a bag of any left overs from any plates that go to the back for cleaning. That way you aren't taking the fresh food directly from the buffet. And just explain you would like it for your pets at home. You are a paying customer, so it's not like you're taking it for yourself.

I take food home for my Jasper-dog all the time! I would share with the kitties too, except Charlie's tummy is very specific about what she can eat and I don't want to only feed Sherpa and have her feel left out!!

Awwww...don't feel bad! We should never have to feel bad about doing something for our loved pets.

Sorry that happened...you never let Michael or any of your cats down!

We have all done that. Taking leftover food home for a Michael is NOT a bad thing! From now on, go in there and explain the situation to them. Offer to pay a little extra for Michael's chicken and I'll bet they will GIVE it to you. Try it. You of all people would never let your cats down. They are SO lucky to have you as their dad!
