If a cat or dog is eating vegan meals, they’re doing it out of their own free will, just saying. Give a dog a piece of Tofu turkey and they eat it, i didn’t force them to eat it, so. 

Give a dog anti freeze and they’ll eat it. Feed a dog rat poison and they’ll eat it. Give a dog grapes, nuts, chocolate, beer, etc. They’ll eat it. They don’t know that it’s dangerous for them. As their caretaker you are responsible for knowing better, not them. If you deprive your cats or dogs of meat, especially cats, you are actively killing your companion in the slowest way.

Dogs actually beg for food because they’ve been domesticated to trust humans.
They beg because they believe that their judgement is more fallible than their caretaker human.
I’ve gotten my dog to willingly take medicines that no dog would ever eat of her free will otherwise.
We literally train pets to believe that we know best, are their pack leader, and will protect them.
That is the promise you make when you own a pet, and they believe you.
If you break that promise and hurt their health, you’re a really bad person.
