Importance and neglect aside, I am skeptical of the tractability. The 13 to 19% is interesting, but I have doubts that translates to a significant amount of real-world behavior. It seems like you almost need to be vegan to be motivated enough to make your cat/dog vegan.
Would refer to my comment above here. It’s definitely not the case that you need to be vegan to be motivated enough to make your cat/dog vegan—many non-vegan guardians are drawn to plant-based diets (knowingly or not, depending on the marketing) motivated by health, allergies, or environmental concerns.
