I want all my pets who died, with me in the afterlife.

You know, there are a lot of people who say that animals have no soul and won't be going to Heaven. But I believe that God loves us and is concerned about us. He cares about the things that are important to us, and our animals are a big part of our lives.
He knows how much our pets mean to us and the love that we feel for them. I can't imagine Him denying us the company in Heaven of the animals that we loved here on earth. We know that there *are* animals in Heaven, so why not our beloved pets, too?
You have my sympathy at the loss of your pet.

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.

Do good deeds in this life and in the next you will have whatever you desire and ask for. God's promise is true, he never breaks his promise!
[40:40] Whoever commits a sin is requited for just that, and whoever works righteousness - male or female - while believing, these will enter Paradise wherein **they receive provisions without any limits.***
[42:22] You will see the transgressors worried about everything they had committed; everything will come back and haunt them. As for those who believed and led a righteous life, they will be in the gardens of Paradise. ***They will receive whatever they wish from their Lord***. This is the great blessing.

Cats are wonderfull creatures. I wonder about that sometimes myself too. I do believe it's possible that there are animals in Heaven. The bible does say that Jesus will come back in a white horse.

God made a covenant with the animals in the Old Testament.
