Animals are living beings. The eat, they sleep, the feel.

I agree that they do, but just because they are living animals doesn't mean that they feel pain. Some simpler animals (sponges, jellyfish) don't have nerves as we do and can only react to stimuli ("pain") in a more diffuse way.

Ya, every creature feel pain, because God made every lining being with the senses, every creature feel pain with the limitation of their verves.

Ofcourse they do! If they didnt then why would a cat scream if you step on his tail? or why would a dog howl if he got hurt?

Of course animals feel pain. Have you never heard a dog yelp when you stand on its paw or seen a cat limp if it hurts its paw.
