Dogs and cats are domesticated animals and kept in the home for companionship, they are not bred for consumption like animals raised for slaughter, thats the difference, next thing buying children on the black market will become fine for people who cant conceive ??

America and some european countries, i would say that more countries would have these animals for pets and not consumption, as opposed to those who breed them to eat
"We have some new developments in store for the Civony community that we are excited to share!
The Civony Beta will soon be drawing to a close. We would like to thank everyone who has helped us in beta testing and we hope you have enjoyed the experience. Your feedback has been invaluable in making Civony a fantastic game. Of course, this is not the end. We are going live very soon!"
they said will go live. so it's in beta now and i'm pretty sure everything will be wiped. but i think alot of people are mad that the ad says LIVE. blah blah tons of discussions on this.
I'm not advocating going into someones house, taking their pet, killing it and eating it. I'm merely saying as GENERAL concept if you eat 1 animal, then you are claiming fair game to all animals. I don't eat most animals, especially since I hear almost everything tastes like chicken anyway, but people make too big a deal out of separating things with an arbitrary imaginary line. (Like "vegetarians" who eat fish... wtf). And why is raising something for consumption such an awesome thing that it makes it ok? Most of the ways in which cattle, for example, are currently being raised are both unsustainable and to many people inhumanly cruel. If we stuck a bunch of dogs heads in between metal bar grating so that they couldn't move or go anywhere, only stick their head into a bowl of food all day every day until they got fat enough for us to shoot a nail between their eyes and chop em up that makes it better for you?
People already buy children when they can't conceive, it's called adoption, just that it's not called the black market (another arbitrary line). Or invitro fertilization, or any of the other crazy schemes they've come up with.

A pescetarian.
Also, all animal consumption is disgusting IMO.
Think about it, you can pick a fruit off a tree, wash/peel it, and start eating.
With most animal food you have to kill it, get rid of its hide/fur/feathers, chop off the right areas, deal with all the blood spewing out, get rid of the bones, then cook it. Not worth the trouble for its negative effect on your health in exchange for the opinionated "great taste."
