Or how will it work for our pets and the pet food industry?

Cats are obligate carnivores and dogs are scavenging carnivores. They need real meat to survive and thrive. People with pet snakes also need to feed their snakes meat.

Are we going to ban pet ownership?

There need not be a structural difference between this and "real" meat, no reason why they wouldn't be able to survive on these products.

I suppose if it is real "cloned" meat/organs. But if it is plant-based "meat", then it won't work for pets.

But I'm not holding my breath on real lab meat being less expensive than animal meat, even in 30 years.

I'm sure they'll try to create a "meat tax" of some sort to make meat more expensive.
