Re: Do our pets go to heaven?

I don't know, but if they do, we'll have to have an extra house just for the animals that have passed on from our family. Thus far the count has been:

Ten chicks (Jeff and I bought them right after we were married, they were all grabbed by a possum or other critter on their first night outside, except for the biggest named "Gusto", who unfortunately didn't survive our overzealous attempts to "save" him with the hair dryer. )

1 gray persian cat
1 siamese cat, Sapphire, died of old age at about 18
2 labs, Jethro & Zipporah (at different times)
1 bichon frise named Cracker Jacque, hit by a car
1 lovely silver tabby named Tiger, killed by contaminated pet food (remember that?)
1 boxer mix stray named Stella, hit by the neighbor's truck
1 beta fish named Valentine
2 hamsters, Henry & Harvey
10 goldfish, who only survived one night
1 Boston Terrier named Chloe

Take this information for what it's worth ( a grain of salt), but if God breathed into man, then it wouldn't be difficult to see that animals are given His breath to live as well. Even though I do not find any evedence to support animals going to heaven when they die, it is difficult for me to say that the spirit of the animals will not go on to live forever. JMO.
See and compare Genesis 6:17. The "breath of life..." was in the animals as well.

Re: Do our pets go to heaven?

Pets have no souls.

They are temporary sources of pleasure for humans and have no eternal value.
