text: why do christians believe that our cats and dogs don't go to heaven? i know, they claim they don't have souls but i believe they do. i am a christian and know many other christians that believe that our pets such as dogs and cats go to heaven! after all, it wouldn't truly be heaven without our little loved ones, would it? i believe that animals have souls. all you have to do is look into their precious eyes and you can see their love. no one can tell me that these little dear animals don't go to heaven. when i go to heaven, i hope i get to be in "charge" of loving and petting all of the animals!!!
