For yourself, maybe, for your pets, absolutely not. Cats are strict carnivores[1], and dogs, while they can survive on a veg diet, it is not what they evolved to consume[2].

Your friends are literally killing their pets. Please either inform them and make sure they stop it, or inform the local humane society/animal shelter and get them taken away.

Another excellent reason to go vegan, both for yourself and your pets. I'm not an authority on this, but my friends have bragged about their cats and dogs alike living a healthy, happy life on a plant-based diet.
