There's no difference between a dog pelt purse and a fox pelt purse for example. It's just that one is more acceptable.
I don't think it's art though.

There might be a difference -the cat and dog probably weren't killed specifically for that project. Which imo would make it more acceptable than the fox purse.
Is it art? Not to me. It might have been if the artist had simply made the product and started using it, but putting an object on display and stating "THIS IS ART" is more likely to have the opposite effect, in my opinion. If you have to tell people it's art, it probably isn't.
Sort of the reverse effect of comments that start with "no offence, but....."
