No I would never “buy” a “Pet” to be “Owned”, You can’t own other beings. They would be a rescue and they would be a non-human companion / ward.
As for ego, what is more egotistical than thinking someone needs to die just to keep another person alive?
Nothing bigger than carnie’s ego when it comes to thinking its okay to kill others just so they can have taste pleasure.
You can make that argument for anyone feeding there cat dry kibble then as a cat probably couldn’t tell the difference between kibble with meat and the one without as it’s so processed anyway.
In general the stuff we feed pets is more like chicken nuggets then chicken breast and you’d be hard pressed to tell the difference between a vegan chicken nugget and a real chicken nugget these days.
There’s probably a good argument against pet ownership from a vegan perspective. But I don’t think it’s because feeding a pet vegan kibble is somehow wrong. As long as they’re getting their nutrients, the cat probably doesn’t know or care.
Vegan’s don’t “own” “pets”, they have wards/non-human companions.
Most vegans take car of rescues, buying from mills is unethical / supporting animal abuse.
Does it give them sufficient nutrients? Are they getting enough stimulation and exercise from not having to hunt their food? If so then it doesn’t matter what you feed them.
Nope. No pets allowed. However in the interest of harm reduction you may adopt an animal companion from a shelter as long as you don’t treat like property. Note that the primary concern is not the pleasure of the human, which you have correctly pointed out is definitely not vegan, but the well-being of the animal.
I do object to feeding them vegan food if they’re not vegetarian in the wild. The only party being satisfied by that arrangement is the owner and their inflated ego, overshadowing the very nature of their pet.
Vegan diets are possible for a lot of animals that aren’t in the wild because we have access to stuff they don’t have in the wild. Also the animal that gets to live instead of being ground up into the treats used to teach mittens some showtricks to parade around is presumably rather satisfied with vegan cat and dog food as well.
Right after you euthanise your cat to save them from a slow death by starvation
Vegan cat food exists.

Animals don’t think beyond “this is tasty”.
