When you are creating your estate plan, don’t forget Fido and Fluffy, and Mr. Ed. You cared for them in life, and after your death they will still need care. They meant a lot to you, so you want to be sure their new caretaker will do a good job.
That’s why you need to include your pets in your estate plan.
Include all the information the new caretaker will need: the name of their veterinarian, any medications the animals might be taking, personality quirks, fears, idiosyncracies, etc. Your dogs and cats are only human, you know.
Make sure you are very specific about all of this information, and make sure you file it with all of your other important papers.
Might I suggest filing everything right here at YouDeparted?
