Why is it essential to have a pet trust for each animal?
Our pets are family and deserve to be cared for with dignity and love. The truth of the matter is this: when we become unable to care for our pets or die, our pets become vulnerable and are at risk for abuse. Yes, abuse, as many dogs and cats are sadly given to shelters or, worse, euthanized. Equines are sold for pennies on the dollar; sadly, auctions have meat buyers waiting to purchase for easy money. This is the truth, not a myth. The most important thing we can do for our beloved pets is create a pet trust. You set up the trust by ensuring the person you have talked to agrees to take your pet with enough funds to care for it. Add the veterinarian’s names, prescriptions, and daily care needs.
