I heard we get to keep humans as pets there.

I believe there is a heaven for cats.
They find there the love they crave, the freedom they long for, the companionship they treasure, the warmth they love to curl up in, the safety and security of a place without fear or hunger.
And if they wish, they find us waiting for them with laps to lie on, hands to pet and gently scratch behind the ears, and soft voices to tell them how loved they are.

The Bible does not give any specific teaching on whether pets / animals have “souls” or whether pets / animals will be in heaven. However, we can take some general Scriptural principles and shed some light on the subject. The Bible states that both man (Genesis 2:7) and animals (Genesis 1:30; 6:17; 7:15,22) have the breath of life. The primary difference between human beings and animals is that man is made in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:26-27). Animals are not made in the image and likeness of God. Being made in the image and likeness of God means that human being are like God, capable of spirituality, with mind, emotion, and will - and - have an aspect of being that continues after death. If pets / animals do have a “soul” or immaterial aspect, it must therefore be of a different and lesser "quality." This difference probably means that pet / animal “souls” do not carry on after death.

I understand heaven to be where your soul goes when your body dies.
I have yet to meet any animal that dosen't exhibit some kind of personality so it seems to me that all animals have souls (in varying degrees of complexity).
Whether you are cat, human, chicken, manatee, gecko, bee, whatever - I believe there is a place for you in heaven.
P.S. You do realise that even there the cats will all be lying in the warmest spot!

"For there is an eventuality as respects the sons of mankind and an eventuality as respects the beast, and they have the same eventuality. As the one dies, so the other dies; and they all have but one spirit, so that there is no superiority of the man over the beast, for everything is vanity. All are going to one place. They have all come to be from the dust, and they are all returning to the dust. Who is there knowing the spirit of the sons of mankind, whether it is ascending upward; and the spirit of the beast, whether it is descending downward to the earth? And I have seen that there is nothing better than that the man should rejoice in his works, for that is his portion; because who will bring him in to look on what is going to be after him?" - Ecclesiastes 3:19:22

i don't believe that there is a 'heaven'....if it doesn't exist, how can cats go there?
besides, life is life...why would a human be so egotistical to think that they are the only beings that are worthy of paradise?

It hasn't been proved. I haven't been there, but I heard only mice go to heaven.

Animals have a soul as we do. Look into their eyes.
