can our pets inherit it? The answer is no.
abstract
pets are part of the inheritance. Pets are not part of the

, even since the introduction of articles 515-14 of the civil code by Law No. 2015-177 of February 16, 2015, Animals are no longer things, but sentient creatures. They are still a heritage.
