The Vegetarian's Dilemma

I've been a vegetarian for over ten years. However, we have two cats- they eat meat, so that makes me a consumer of meat (of course, not literally).  There are pitfalls for the would-be pure vegetarian.  There are meat products that are contained in all kinds of things- I guess the most obvious would be leather shoes, but gelatine can be in sweets and pill coatings to name but two.
So, my point is, I guess, vegetarians have to tread very carefully if they want to get 'all preachy' about it.  After all, they may be treading in leather shoes!
