Some cats can handle a plant-based diet but it's not just a matter of "here Fluffy, eat this and fuck off." You have to regularly measure the alkalinity of their urine and consult with a vet regularly to make sure they aren't developing dick crystals and UTIs and shit.

I know a few people who seem to be making it work (including someone who isn't even vegan, cat just had a ton of allergies) but combined with it usually being cost prohibitive, it's currently too big of an ask to say "do this vegoons, or you're a hypocrite."

Who knows what the future will bring though.

Allergies are a different issue altogether and that's reasonable if it the only thing the cat can tolerate (that seems unlikely though... my mom had a cat who was allergic to existing pretty much and she found a food it could eat fine).

But if it isn't medically necessary for some reason anyone who decides to have a pet that was born a carnivore can either feed it what it is meant to eat or fuck right off. Don't get a cat if you're gonna impose your morals onto an animal whose diet requires meat.
