Eating pets after they've died

I could never think of eating a beloved pet when they died. Gives me the creeps to think about it. The idea of eating Fluffy unless it was a matter of survival is beyond me. Even then, it would be very hard for me to do especially since I'm a vegan.

I have the same concern as Ram. If a dog, cat, or whatever pet dies, there has to be a reason. If there was some sort of disease, it probably would be unhealthy meat to eat. I don't think it would be a good thing to do.
