That was the theme of a Twilight Zone episode.

Not sure if our specific pets go to heaven but the Bible is very clear that animals are with us in eternity.

Wow. I fell for it, hook, line and sinker. The thought of validating the belief of seeing ‘my old pals’ in heaven was irresistible. Some will continue to say This Pope said it, regardless of this article, because the idea is so very appealing and comforting to most animal lovers.

It’s come out at least twice on FR alone. I believe you replied on that thread, too.

*******

I know a few terrible dogs in my neighborhood who are so terrible that they have no chance of going to heaven, because they will frighten and attack even the angels for all eternity if somehow God allowed them into heaven. Just joking, I think.

Jesus’ first worshippers around the manger were the animals there. Why wouldn’t these innocent creatures go to Heaven?

My dogs get in or it’s no deal.

So non-Catholics pets go to hell with their owners? That’ll go over well.

If the Pope left "the pearly gates open," maybe he let all the animals out of Heaven!
