    I think it's ok to eat dog and cat in china and some other countries where is legal to do so. There is nothing wrong with it. If I go there, I would like to try turtle and dog too, but not cat.
    People have attachment to cats and dogs as pets, so eating them is still an "ethical" problem.

    Muslim people have attachment to pig so should we ban pork altogether?? Of course not. Dog and cat meats are just another source of food for people to choose in place where they are legal to consume. I personally wouldn't want to eat cats, rat and snakes, but if other people eat them, it's none of my business.

    What is this "attachment" (to pig) that you're referring to?? The reason they do not consume pig is due to their religion, a story behind it. More in a form of respect for what had happened.

    Are dogs and cats part of the livestock??? Have it cross your mind that why is there only the existence of one breed of chicken, per se, instead of "persian chicken", "poodle chicken", "syberian chicken", etc?? No, certainly, peacock does not appear on my diner.

    Muslims do not have attachment to pork. They shun pigs and pork because it is considered a "dirty" animal in their religion. It has nothing to do with attachment.

    If I got this wrong and there's Muslims or someone who knows the religion well, please do feel free to correct me.

    That is correct, Muslims don't eat pigs because to them pigs are unclean. Along with many other foods. It's the Hindus that regard cows as sacred.
