There will be Lions and Lambs in heaven so probably there will be dogs and cats--they do not have souls from what i understand so they will be new ones .

hahaahaha Are you serious?

ok ok I know you are serious. Great to see you sharing sis. You have great questions.

As far as my memory goes, i cannot think of any verses that deal directly with your question. I would say they simply stop being, but the truth is that i do not know. The word does not specify. Sorry.

Disney says that all dogs go to Heaven - hahaha ok ok i will be serious. :)

if pets do go to heaven, their owners will also have to go to heaven to see them. The Bible makes it clear that the majority of people will not go to heaven,


These verses came to mind.

Romans 8:22-25 (New King James Version)
22 For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now. 23 Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.

Greetings Ginnybee,

I think many believers have pondered this matter over the years.
Afterall, our pets are like family. And it`s grievious to have to put them down, or see them pass away.

Well, we know about horses being in heaven = Revelation 6:2,4,5,8, and 19:11,19,21. Maybe that`s a clue that we will see other animals also (like our loving pets).

God has done some phenomenal things pertaining to animals.
There are now service dogs who can sense, in advance, when a person with a seizure disorder is going to have a seizure, and warn this person ahead of time.
And how about when that tremendous tsunami occurred 6-8 years ago, killing 100`s of thousands of people, various types of animals were seen running inland before the tidal waves came.

Something to think about: Almighty God might have special plans for our 4-legged friends.
Amen.

Grace and Peace.
