Do animals have souls?

She is a very cute bun!  You have chickens? I've thought about getting two or three, for eggs, they would have plenty of free range on my 4 acres and eat up all the bugs. But I've got a fairly large vet bill right now, and feed bill for the cats, dogs, bunny and goats (my organic weed-eaters), so I'll wait on the chickens. I've also thought about goats for their hair, to spin into yarn, but the price on those goats are pretty high. 

I miss having a horse; my mare died about 14 years ago, but I have a friend with a horse that I can brush and groom and hug. I love their smell! Every Christmas, my dad and I would take a warm bran mash out to the barn for the horses. I was a member of the Pony Club, and my old gelding was a hunter.  I showed him in hunt seat for a few years as a junior, but then he just got to graze in the pasture for the rest of his life, happy as a duck.  He lived a long, good horse life.
