The only reason you don’t eat those meats is because you are not used to it. People ate horse meat in Europe regularly until WW2 and cats and dogs are eaten in other part of the world.
Cats and dogs are no more intelligent than cows but we have emotional attachment and historical use (herding and killing rats) for them so in the Western world we prefer to have them as pets.
Would you eat cat, dog, or horse meat?

Horse meat is not rare here in Sweden. Nor is moose or reindeer.
I eat horse. I would not eat cat or dog because I’ve don’t see them as food but I’m still more disgusted by insect meat.
If it tastes nice, sure.
