Can I just say that first, the egg wasn't 'stolen' away. It wouldn't have been fertilised at any point after being laid. It's basically like - if you will - a chicken period. It HAS to lay an egg, whether or not it becomes a chicken depends on if there's a rooster. You're saying it as if someone is almost giving the chicken an abortion and taking it out of it's stomach - it doesn't work like that.

I'm vegetarian but my long term boyfriend who I live with isn't. He has his own separate place in the fridge for meat, and if he wants it he can cook it. I still love him all the same and won't force anything on him if that's what he requires/likes for his diet. Same goes for pets.

I find your post, like others, a little harsh. You're not vegetarian and I don't really know who it's directed at, at that. I personally wouldn't make my carnivore pets vegetarian, but that's just me.
