Yes, there is an afterlife for animals too. They are part of the creation and since God breathed into everything his divine breath, they sort of share our immortal soul. Plus, I can't even image a perfect happiness (the one you are suppose to enjoy in Heaven) without my pets' company. I expect to find them waiting for me there when I die.
I don't want realism. I want magic! Yes, yes, magic. I try to give that to people. I do misrepresent things. I don't tell the truth. I tell what ought to be truth (Blanche/A streetcar named desire)
