I don't know why it's OK to eat a lamb, cow, baby cow, chicken etc and not eat cats or dogs. I don't eat any animal, nor do I care to eat any animal, but why is it OK to put a cow or a chicken through a hellish life, cramped in unlivable conditions, cut off it's beak, feet, or cram it into a stall so small that it can't turn around, back up or lye down for it's short life then slaughter it, and sell it as food but it's not OK to eat a dog or cat. I understand that it's shocking that anyone would eat a cat, but I find it shocking that people eat other animals that had the most horrendous life prior to being slaughtered...a life so bad that slaughter is a blessing.

Sorry to ruffle feathers, but I think all animals have feelings, not just cats & dogs. I am not putting down any individual for eating meat, most of my friends, and most of my family eat meat but I am ashamed that the USA as a country would allow such horrible quarters for any food animal. If the animals were treated as respectfully as many of the organic free range animals are treated it would be more shocking to me that cats are eaten.
