Pet Heaven

[jackfaire]

Kind of more of a whimsical thread but my cat passed yesterday. Personally I think to think a cat passing is like sloughing off an old boddy walking through a wall and turning a corner into yet another dimension of adventure.

What do you think happens to beloved pets when they pass?

[Ghel]

Excuse me for being tactless, but there's no more reason to think that there's an afterlife for animals than there is for humans. The idea that there's a heaven for humans, animals, or even plants is founded on wishful thinking. You're better off realizing that this is the only chance at life that Fluffy has (or you, for that matter). Cherish the fond memories, because in the end, that's all you have.

[jackfaire]

Your not being tactless your simply stating your beliefs which is exactly what I asked for.

Me I believe in reincarnation. For pets I have no idea for others I don't know. All I know is no matter what I will live my life to enjoy it without harming others and have fun the next time around too.

Hobbs, that was indeed awesome. And if I had to go to church in that town, I know where *I'D* go.

My sister's gerbil passed away a week ago today. When the gerbil died, I told my sister that Kairi was eating carrots and running around in her ball, happy and no longer in pain from cancer. It made her feel better.

I believe there is an afterlife for all beings. I find it comforting. *shrug*

I just know my last cat's gonna reincarnate into Cthulhu.

I do believe in an afterlife for humans, as I'm Christian, and while I'm honestly not sure what happens to pets, I sure do know how happy I'd be if I got to heaven and saw all of my old furry friends come bounding up to me again. I like to think that heaven is a happy place, and that if seeing our pets again will make us happy, they will be there.

If there are not pets in the afterlife (including ones we've had) then I don't want to go there.

My pets are (and were) more than just "pets". They were family members, they were companions, and they were partners.

One of our cats will probably eventually reincarnate into the Second Coming of Gozer. McGriff is still hanging around the apartment, I found cat hair yesterday on a rug that I know I vacummed.

No matter how many times I see that it still cracks me up.

I don't believe in an afterlife either...but hey, if I find Pablo waiting for me when I get there, I'll be pleasantly surprised...and if I'm right, well, I guess I'll never know the difference.
