OK, first of all, Christians are not unanimous in saying animals don't have souls.
Secondly, Revelations is a Book full of metaphors. The slain Lamb is Jesus (the "Lamb of God"); the horses of the four horsemen symbolize the swiftness of the disasters (it was written in ancient Rome when there were no cars or jets).
I would like to take this opportunity to ask that you please be careful with interpreting the Bible. There are some unbelievers out there (not necessarily saying you're one, of course) who take some passages so literally that they put even the most ardent fundamentalist to shame. But yours, i think, is actually a legit question.
Blessings. :)

You never know, animals could very well go to heaven. The slain lamb= Jesus. And God created those horses to live in heaven.

The slain lamb is Jesus. As to horses. You don't think God who created the universe could create a few horses in Heaven?

Revelation is a message received in a vision. The images are symbolic, not literal in nature. The lamb for example is a symbol for Christ.

Who says animals don't go to heaven? Nobody really knows, I don't think they mentioned that in the Bible which is why it is always up for debate. I like to think that they do go to heaven.

Its language and references that we can relate to.Simple--- ie. if you were an accountant I would try to use accounting terms to get something difficult to understand across to U.
