Would you agree your beloved animal was created by God, maybe He even had it planed to bring you together? Again most Christians would say yes, God created our pets.
Is God bound by any rules that prevents him from recreating our beloved pet when we get to Heaven? Our little puny human minds could not even comprehend the wonders he has in-store for us. Having our beloved pet waging his tail for us as we enter the Kingdom is not beyond Gods power.

Mega dittos !
What if it’s a pet you didn’t especially like but were morally stuck with, like an abusive Ex-husband’s smelly hunting dog? You got rid of him, but still cared for the dog because it wasn’t their fault your Ex was a jerk?
What if it’s the neighbor’s Pit Bull that killed your beloved kitty cat, but that neighbor really, REALLY loved his sadistic, evil, dangerous dog and believed that dog had a ‘soul’? Does THAT dog get into Heaven? And to what end? To chase the soul of YOUR beloved Kitty cat and torment HER for ALL of eternity? LOL!
What if MY idea of Heaven is the end of CATERING to the never-ending needs of pets and livestock? Maybe, to me, Heaven is a place where I don’t HAVE to milk cows, or I don’t HAVE to slop the hogs, or I don’t have to scatter corn & collect eggs, or I don’t HAVE to run the dogs 2x a day or I don’t have to lift yet ANOTHER cat turd out of the cat box or clean up the lawn with the Poop Shovel?
Hmmmmmm? Hmmmmmm? ;) LOL!
You’re barkin’ up the wrong tree if you think you’ll convince me that animals have souls and that they’re anything other than animals. Useful? Sure. Loving? You betcha! Souls? Nope.
(And many days, I wonder about the souls of the HUMANS I have contact with, LOL!)
good post sir!
I completely agree that there will be animals in heaven. It wouldn’t be heaven without them!
I saw this over on my.arfie.com and thought it was funny. Albeit, photoshop had a hand in creating it I’m sure.

Beautifully put...better than my snippy caustic comments. ha.
As I recall, in the new earth, the lion will lie down with the lamb. So, there must be those two, at least.
