I agree, same with horses, I could not eat any horse meat, they are special to us.
We reared a pig for meat, Gilbert was a pet but a male pig, we hand reared him as his mother Charlote abandoned him. He followed us like a dog, when young, but he had to go for meat, instead of Gilbert my friend who's farm it was swopped his meat for another pig. That wasn't so bad eating the pig, the one we ate was not him.
