Funny to think that with 'being perceived as anything' the starbucks could be a person fulfilling their life's desire =P

Still, jealous.

Maybe that's what the portal is for.

The gates swing outward never...
My first thought was that they were going to slide into the walls like in Star Trek.

Hmmm... there seems to have been some renovation going on in heaven, the gates and courtyard used to look like this. I'll say, the new look is a lot more more welcoming.
However, there could be more than one entrance to heaven, perhaps this could be the second gate.

I also remember Pete (or was it Sabrina) mentioning something about separate heavens for dogs and humans, so I was under the assumption that dogs had their own section of heaven, away from other species (key word: dog heaven). So I'm guessing the cats/rabbits/lizards etc. in this strip were former dogs but chose to modify their appearances?

That cat with the swirly shoulder pattern is awesome.

I would imagine Heaven has a communal garden.

I remembered the more city-like Heaven with the golden brick roadways, but I assumed that was the business entrance.

Usually Heaven's gates are metal fences, not solid doors... That's why! It's to hide from the eyes of those who are going to it, the view of a such beauty! :shock: :D Great win on the surprise effect. ;)
So, there's no escalator, but fortunately the Heaven is a realm of mind, so they won't feel any physical pain, especially get lactic acid in their legs. :P BTW, really nice place they've got after that long flight of steps! So many details, in particular it's loving the Roman style road. :) So many variations on the creatures, really cool the winged cat! There's a man, and he looks to be in the wrong Heaven. :P
That comment has to sound no more particular to you, Cerberus. ;) Animal's Heaven must be full, Fox. Who of them would really go in the Hell (there would be some names, though :P)? And why? Hell is a place designed for humans... :roll:

Agree, cool look. 8-) Evidently, they were expecting to see the typical dazzling light of Heaven. :P Where did they take them? Oh, wait, that's Heaven, a realm of mind... So, they imagined to have them on their muzzles. ;)

Two things: One, Rick has added a significant more detailing in his backgrounds as a general rule since then. And two, Heaven is a realm of the mind, as Cerberus said.

...Funny, I completely did NOT remember that Cerberus and Pete had a relationship. Wow... She's changed a lot. For the better.

It's like Fur Affinity, Deviant Art, and a Beat-less album cover all at once!

It looks crowded as crazy, too!

Is that some kind of red donkey sticking its head out of a portal in the ground?

Reminds me of a poem:

"When you get to heaven
You will likely view
Many folks whose presence there
Will be a shock to you,

But then keep very quiet.
Do not even stare.
Doubtless there'll be many folks
Surprised to see YOU there."
-Annonymous

Now THAT'S a good poem! Probably true, too. :)

It did seem a bit one sided as there was only one human in the last panel.
I remember it being said that appearance is down to the persons own will, but even so you would expect to see more humans/people wanting to seen as human.

I think I see another one on the left side, next to that driveway restaurant.
