Psalm 36 refers to God's love for animals. I'll take that as a yes, they are in Heaven.
Also, Jesus teaches us that we are to let things be done according to our faith in Him. I have asked Jesus to bless animals with eternal life in Heaven; I believe He has done so; I claim it in His Name, therefore it is done.

I don't see how we can be happy in heaven if our beloved animals aren't there. God knew our pets even before he brought them into creation and He is certainly capable of restoring life to the little critters. There will be insects in heaven also along with other newly created animals and plant life.
They are living souls. And everything that is living and breathing has the breath of God in it.
As is said in Ecclesiastes - body goes to the ground and spirit to God who gave it.
So, according to me, they will be in heaven. Or on a new Earth. They do not sin so they need no salvation to go there.
BTW you can pray for that to happen. God hears our prayers. And there is nothing in the Bible that says "no animals in heaven". So pray.

This is from a previous thread created hundreds of years ago.
Ecclesiastes 3:18-21: “As for humans, God tests them so that they may see that they are like the animals. Surely the fate of human beings is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath (literally “spirit“); humans have no advantage over animals. Everything is meaningless. All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return. Who knows if the human spirit rises upward and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth?”

They do not need salvation. Because their fallen state is not their fault.
"For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of him who subjected it, in hope that the creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God."
Rom 8:20
Bible is very clear about it. We just need to get 1 + 1 together.

Well I will tell you this,I lost my old boy last year. He loved me and would protect me,and hubby,with his life. But he hated just about everyone else. I dont see how he got into heaven. He was my boy but he was often a bad boy!
