Do Animals Go to Heaven? Do Animals Have Souls?

No, the Bible says that animals and humans are souls.  (Numbers 31:28) Well, it seems they have forgotten what else it says in (Leviticus 17:11-14)  The life of the flesh is in the soul. which actually means, it is our soul. And since animals have blood in them, then  they will go to the paradise earth with the majority of the humans. When the first man, Adam, was created, he was not given a soul but "became a living soul." (Genesis 2:7)  I beg to argue; the the blood is the life of the soul, so he would be able to live without blood in him.  A soul is composed of two things, the "dust from the ground" and "the breath of life. Well you also need blood. If some one bleeds to death, is he not dead?  Please!

Can souls die? 

Yes, the Bible teaches that souls can die.  (Leviticus 21:11; Ezekiel 18:20)  At death, animals and humans return to the dust of the earth.  (Ecclesiastes 3:19,20) In other words, they cease to exist.

Do animal sin?0

No. To sin means to think, to feel, or do something that violates God's standards. In order to sin, a creature must be able to make moral decisions, but animals lack this ability.  They usually act according to instinct during their limited life span. ( 2 Peter 2:12)  At the end of their life span, they die, even though they do not sin. 

Note: This make not make much sense to you unless you are an animal lover, like me; but animals do not have anything but their instinct, nor do they sin. which to me,  In a way they are cleaner and more moral than humans  and deserve to go to heaven as much as anyone who follows God standards, because God made all the animals. They say that animals cannot think, but I have seen that a lot of animals have more sense than humans  and in my opinion are smarter than most. Especially some of the people I have met and known.  Not to offend anyone, but that is the truth.  At least when an animal learns something they are taught, it is in their brain and are able to remember it.  Now, tell me they can't think.
