Anita and Arabella, two female cross Spiders went into orbit in 1973 for Skylab 3 space station. Also on board were 720 fruit flies, six mice, two minnows and 50 minnow eggs! The experiment proved that spiders can spin nearly Earth-like webs in space. Though Arabella and Anita have both died, their bodies remain at the Smithsonian, memorialized for their small, vital part in increasing our knowledge of space.

yes, of course, the first animal that went to space was monkey.
The Russian space probe Mars 2 went to space in the year of 1973.
A total of 32 animals, including monkeys, dogs, mice, fruit flies, and turtles, have been sent into space for scientific experiments and research purposes. These animals helped scientists study the effects of space travel on living organisms.
The first animals were launched into space to see if it would be possible for them to survive in space at all. Once that was settled and humans went into space, there was no longer a need for space pets.
