So it's okay to eat animals, but the moment they become
cute
animals, it's really bad?
Aww, don't hurt the
sea kittens
!
But no, there are no rules against eating pets, potentially the only problem is if you're breaching any health/safety guidelines on the slaughter, cleaning and disposal of any waste. Or if the pet is your partner's and they don't agree, as the case may be. Or even if the pet is yours, and your partner doesn't agree, but that one won't necessarily be illegal.

I believe that eating one type of animal is just as good as another (morally, however taste is completely different).

My friends has a hermit crab and one of them is called Captain Speedy and he's got the Jolly Roger painted on his shell.

I think a big reason why people have that kind of reaction to, say, someone eating a monkey's brain (O.o), is mostly because, as a culture, we're not accustomed to it. We don't normally eat dog meat in the states, and so, we find it odd when we see people who do. But, there's nothing necessarily "wrong" about it. Though, I may not be as outraged as some PETA members may be towards animal "cruelty," I don't think it is particularly kind to God's creatures to kill them, without a just reason behind it. Whether you
need
the animal for nourishment, skins, etc. But, a vegetarian diet is not nearly as nutritious as a diet with basic fish, beef, and poultry in it. But, I would question you on why you decided to chow down on your goldfish...
But PETA...
PETA members are
waaaaaaaaay
too far out there.

When I used to live in Alaska, I had an aquarium with a couple of hermit crabs, 2 golden king crabs and 1 red king crab. I used to spend my days watching them fight :P
