Unfortunately, I'm a little off when it comes to some details of my own religion. What do we believe about animals? Do they go to Heaven too?

Were animals created in the image of God? They die like we die. Does that mean they are involved in sin or are they suffering the effects of it being part of a fallen world? If you believe that animals were made for man and not as children of God, then I would say No.. If you believe all animals are children of God then Yes.. You will have to make this call the Bible doesn't address it... Jim

Some people believe they do, others believe they don't. The bible is not too clear on this. But there were animals in the Garden of Eden, so I believe there will be animals in heaven as well. And if my deceased pets are there, even better!

Some believe animals have no souls therefore do not go to heaven. But I believe what the bible says and it states anything with the breath of life has a soul this would include animals and that means they go to heaven.

In Islam, we believe all animals believe in God. This was very interesting, my cat heard the Quran and she just stood silent(she never really does that) and wouldn't move a muscle. We took her out of the room while the Quran was still playing and she could hear it..and she tried to get in the room! So you see, all animals pray to God. We also believe on the Day of Judgement, the animals will be judged on their right and wrong actions. After that, they will turn to dust.

The bible doesn't say much on the subject. The only one I know of states that the spirit of an animal, returns to the dust.
Ec 3:21
Who knows the spirit of the sons of men, which goes upward, and the spirit of the animal, which goes down to the earth?

I have asked someone this before. They said that animals are here for our enjoyment. Because, come to think of it, we won't even think of our pets or anyone else we left on earth when we're in heaven, because there is no sadness in heaven.

in the bible there are animal-like beings already in heaven....animals and birds and mammals are all contained within humans...humans are an amalgamation of all the substances and creatures on the planet....animals represent the spirits of people, literally!

I don´t think they will see heaven. However, it does say that there will be animals in heaven. Perhaps newly created animals.
GOD bless
