Who's Gonna Take Care of Fido?



Many people make plans with a friend or relative regarding the care of their pet after they die. However, a sure way to make sure your pet is covered is to make the pet's care a part of your Will. Even though a pet is legally considered property, you can leave money for your pet in a trust. You bequeath money into a trust with your pet as the beneficiary and a trustee named. A caregiver for your pet is also named. The trustee could be a friend or a relative or an institution willing to serve. Make sure all your loved ones are covered in the event of your death.
