Christians are obligated to forgive those who seek forgiveness, especially other Christians.
Highly doubtful if these animals would really seek forgiveness.

I read with amusement this line you posted:

And was reminded of a sweet little Christian girl I knew in high school, who, upon hearing that I had been converted to Christ, went into her room, got down on her knees, and prayed "God, if you can save THAT guy you can save anyone."

Remember these words "I did not come for the righteous, but sinners." The bigger sinners they are, the more of an indication they are indeed, the people for whom Christ came. On the other hand, the more you think they are horrid filthy worthless beings, the more that is an indication that you think of yourself as "righteous" (at least in comparison to them), and the less you believe that Christ came for YOU....., and that is a bad bad bad state to be in. Just for thought.
