so there will no doubt be many there, I was referring to peoples earthly pets.

If you acknowledge that there will be animals in Heaven, then why not people's earthly pets? I know of nothing in scripture that prohibits this possibility.

I'm not sure how a Jew can figure out a way through your redemption plan to allow for pets, but in the Christian faith, we are required to have the Holy Spirit which will quicken at Gods command, and with out that spirit, we decay back into the earth and stay there until the judgement.

No Spirit, no eternal life.
