Food is just chemicals and it turns out it doesn't actually matter if the chemicals have a soul attached to them or not. Personally don't think vegans should own pets at all but the whole "they carnivores tho" is rly dumb

Vegans wouldn't "Own" someone else. Plenty of vegans rescue other animals and take care of them as wards.

I personally don't use the word pet when referring to non-human animals in someone's care.

Why not? That's the exact scenario the word applies to.

Because I use the same word for human animals and non-human animals. I would call a foster kid my pet. I call them my ward or a ward of the state.
