Do all dogs and cats really go to heaven? Yes, they do! The death of your beloved pet can be one of the most heartbreaking losses you'll ever endure. But recovery isn't only about closure. You also want to know where your best friend has gone. After the intense, unexpected grief he experienced following the loss of his own companions, animal lover and biblical scholar Gary Kurz set out to prove that there are indeed pets in Paradise. After devoting countless hours of research, he now shares his inspiring insights to bring you a richer understanding of animals and their souls. You'll finally find answers to common questions about animals and the afterlife--and you'll also get a 30-day devotional to help you work through your grief. If you've ever loved and lost a pet, or if you know someone who has shared a special bond with a furry face and a cold, wet nose, you'll welcome this amazing book's reassurance that love and loyalty are truly eternal, and that someday, you and your pets will be together again. Gary Kurz is a retired Coast Guard officer who served his country faithfully and honorably for over 30 years. He and his wife have a love for animals and a concern for others who share their love. He lives in Manhattan, Kansas, near Kansas City.

"This gave me hope and confidence. The writer made perfect sense and used the unerring truth Scripture to validate his statements. I miss my Gideon deep in my bones and this made me feel better, knowing I will see him again. I happened to read this book before he died and I’m certain God led me to it to prepare me for what was coming. As a Christian, I’d been taught early on that since animals “didn’t have souls”, they couldn’t make a decision to follow Christ like humans could. They are not sentient in that way. However, this author puts forward the argument that those decisions arent required anyway of the animals, and that lest we forget, animals ARE mentioned as being in the afterlife. His arguments for this are strong and believable. I am so glad I read this book. Some of his sentences sounded as if they spoke directly to me, stating things I needed to hear to calm my heart. I will reread this!"
