Please don't hate me

What would it take?
Ok, here's the situation. You're in your home with your pet dog and cat when a giant blizzard suddenly and without warning hits your city. You're locked in your home for days, weeks, even months.
You've eaten all of your food and are now beginning to ration the canned cat food (we all know that that stuff looks delicious). For some strange reason your water lines don't freeze over. It doesn't make sense, but you accept it as fate.
No food, no end in sight, cat food is almost gone...at what point do you eat your dog and cat? What would it take for us to eat our pets? Would they have to die first? Would you kill them so as to provide food for your family? I guess the question is not 'what will it take for you to eat your pet', but rather 'how far will you go to provide for your family?'
At some point aren't we obligated to eat our animals? Doesn't duty and the will to live require us to eat our pets?
Sound off, tell me your thoughts. What would it take for you to eat Mittens, or Lucy, or Milo? How far will you go to take care of the ones you love, the human beings that you love?
