The bible tells us agonizingly little about the supernatural attributes of pets and other non human earthly creatures. The New Testament goes further than the Old, suggesting a future redemption of the entire creation from its bondage to decay. If that is literally meant, Heaven would seem to have a kind of zoo in it, a zoo with no fences and walls and no danger. And the animals will bark and meow and howl and roar their everlasting praises to God. Since animals do not have a moral sense in the way that humans do, it is not possible for even a “vicious” animal to incur guilt of sin — there would be no animals in Hell.
The Monks of New Skete speculate on this very matter:
"Do the bonds of relationship extend beyond this life?
We have no proof, one way or another. But there is a depth to our experience that awakens faith, faith that in the mysterious character of life ultimately nothing of real value will ever be lost. Our closest relationships, both with humans and with dogs somehow point beyond themselves, leading us to hope that there is indeed something of the eternal present in them."
OH wow! I had always hoped my dear departed animals would be with me someday in Heaven but I have never read the scripture. Could you give me the passages?
It would seem fit for a loving God.
