I seem to recall a story in the Bible about a man who had a pet ewe lamb and loved it, and somebody killed his pet ewe lamb. This was presented as a very bad thing to do to that man, with the perpetrator deserving punishment. So at least, God understands pets or companion animals and how much they mean to us. It appears He’s not happy when someone destroys another person’s beloved pet. Perhaps that’s a good sign that He will let us have our pets in Heaven.
Thank-you, God Bless, and Amen.
