At one time we were encouraged to feed the chicken litter, from our houses, mixed with molasses to our cattle. Many farmers did. We did not.

pet food does contain animal byproducts. What do you think they do with the millions of cubic yards of chicken and turkey entrails that come out of the processing plant in my neck of the woods. Every part of the animal is used for something.

I have worked on equipment in these plants. I only buy locally grown meats. I won't touch the crap coming out of these plants.
