Cats really aren't a good source for restaurants. Too small, too hard
to catch, not enough meat. Rats can be as good as cats would and
would be more apt to hang around the back door of a kitchen area.
Dogs are much better. Bigger, meatier, easier to catch than either
cats or rats and not as likely to injure you while being caught or
killed. Latter becomes very important to those who do the catching.
It's one of the reasons (amount of meat per animal being the other)
that the Chinese switched over to St. Bernards in the past few years.

I doubt it's really cost effective for a restaurant to go for house
pets over purchased meats, especially considering the associated risks
of being found out; but we know that there are a lot of dim people out
there. Someone, somewhere has had to try it at sometime. If you're
going to steal animals, much easier to back up your van to someone's
pasture and herd in some of the more conventional animals. Large
amount of meat for low cost and time.

last night that local dairy farmers have bee losing calves
to thieves recently.

A number of years ago, one of my daughters was living in Brocton, MA. There was
a Chinese restaurant about a block away from her apartment, and we ate there
often while visiting. After she had lived there about a year, she sent us a
clipping from her local paper, which stated that the local authoroties, acting
on a tip, had pulled a surprise inspection on this restaurant, and found a sink
full of pigeons in the process of being gutted and plucked, and two burlap bags
full of live pigeons in the kitchen. The owners claimed that the birds were for
his family's personal consumption. Ummmm! Pigeon Lo Mein.

After that, when in Brockton, we ate Italian.
