THE BATTLE CATS WIKI CATBURGER SERIES

According to Kosuna, dogs are commonly eaten as food and actually keeping a dog as a pet in this setting is considered an extremely strange thing only done by rich people. In the anime the dog is replaced with a rare giant bug.

Kosuna cooks and eats a dog she is walking to get revenge on her boss Kanta for getting her crappy jobs.

In one of the gaiden episodes, there's a Contractor who is a human in a dog's body and she gestures to a nearby meat market to explain why she feels uncomfortable staying in an area.

To Mao's chagrin, Hei jokes that it wouldn't be a bad idea.

In an episode, Hei's landlady finds Mao (a human in a cat's body) wandering around the apartment complex (so he could relay orders to Hei) and she inquires if cats are eaten in Hei's home country, China.

The Black Ghost group comes in and offers help, but soon they prove themselves to be just as bad as the Athans, and force the five Pu'Away princesses to be a part of their plans.

In Cyborg 009, the Pu'Awak humanoid race is used as this by the Athans, a race of scientifically advances winged dinosaurs.

In the live-action adaptation it's Faye who does that.

On Cowboy Bebop, Spike speculated on eating the crew's pet super-intelligent Welsh Corgi Ein when he first met him.

In Barefoot Gen, a soldier teaches Gen and Ryuta to kill a dog and eat it to avoid dying of malnutrition.

He's our Team Pet, and we need him alive.

Please refrain from eating Tropey the Wonder Dog. If a given culture is depicted as Acceptable Ethnic Targets because they purportedly eat critters that another culture regards as pets, that's a form of Foreign Queasine. If villains eat a certain type of meat to demonstrate how evil they are, you're probably looking at Exotic Entree. Not related to Kick the Dog or Shoot the Dog. More convenient than Reduced to Ratburgers, as edible pets are easier to catch (they may even come when you call.). There's rarely any humor when people who do love their dog are forced to think about eating it because, you know, the world has ended.Д¬an cross over with Let's Meet the Meat and What Measure Is A Nonhuman. There may even be a minor subplot about it trying to escape. Humor is often obtained when the creature is aware of their fate.

Sometimes the characters are just keeping this poor animal around as emergency rations.

Sometimes the Ridiculously Cute Critter in the series isn't the Team Pet.
