What will happen to my pet when I am gone?

Rest assured, according to CS Lewis, your pet will go to heaven, but what if you beat them there? Who will care for them?

It’s been a good life. Your health if failing and your wonderful pet has been there every step of the way. They know you are not doing well. The sense it. What will happen to them when you are gone? We can help you protect them by either creating a Pet Protection Agreement or a Pet Care Trust.

We can help you protect them by either creating a Pet Protection Agreement or a Pet Care Trust.

A Pet Protection Agreement is a contract you can create to make sure your pet is well cared for after you pass. It allows you to appoint a pet guardian to take care of your pet, and set care requirements. For instance, you can require that your pet is taken to the vet for an annual check up, and make their final arrangements.

A Pet Care Trust can provide all the protection of a Pet Protection Agreement but also allows you to set aside money in a trust to pay for your pet’s treatment and care. A Pet Protection Agreement can be taken care of for as little as $250.
