If there is a heaven, do you think our pets go there too? I'm not sure that I want to go to heaven if my cat Lenny, isn't up there. Growing up, he was my best friend.

Yes, and also with the cow you had for dinner last night.

Nowhere does Scripture explicitly state that animals do not have souls...There is nothing in Scripture I know of that would preclude the possibility of animals' continued existence...The Bible does give us some reason to hope that departed animals will be restored. We read in the Bible that redemption is a cosmic matter. The whole creation is destined to be redeemed through the work of Christ (Romans 8:21), and we see the images of what heaven will be like; beautiful passages of Scripture tell us about the lion and lamb and other animals being at peace with one another.(Isaiah 11:6-8). Whenever heaven is described, though it may be in highly imaginative language, it is a place where animals seem to be present. Whether these are animals newly created for the new heavens and the new earth, or they are the redeemed souls of our pets that have perished, we can't know for sure.

wow I hope so my best friend should be up there waiting for me. lol I really am not sure, I have studied the bible on that and I believe yes but most of my christian friends say no. the argument is "because animals don't have a soul they can't go to heaven." but in the bible The lord comes down from heaven in a chariot with two WHITE HORSES!! so horses must be in there. I guess in the end, there are no tears in heaven and you won't be sad about your cat either way. We will just be happy to get to see the Lord.

We wont omit people who're no longer there. they gained't be in our information. specific, we are all God's babies, yet whilst we don't settle for His present of salvation we wont bypass to Heaven.

There is no proof in the bible that we will. But I hope we can visit them on another planet perhaps.
