Do you have to feed pets halal food?

Allah Almighty revealed the Quran for humans and jinn, not animals. The food rules therefore apply to us, but not animals. Animals hunt and prey on other animals. When we have pets, we can feed them food that is available in the supermarkets, but should not feed them any pig products.
