Bump! I think this is really important for everyone to think about
Bump! I think this is really important for everyone to think about
C'mon I really hope more people are concerned or are thinking about this type of stuff![]()
I don't have anything official, but I'm sure Zoee would go to my brothers. And the cats....well, that's a good question. I am sure if my mom was still around she'd take them in at her house. She watches Taz for me when I'm on vacation, and she will watch Paizly too next year.
But this is a very good thing to get worked out. I'll have to figure out those arrangements for sure. Thanks for bringing it up.
Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.
Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

Interesting topic. If my immediate family had an accident (i.e. including my parents), I suppose the animals would go either to one of my friends or my parents' friends. No-one else in my family; grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, etc, keep animals, so I would have no luck with them. Failing that, I would hope that all the work I have done for the RSPCA shelter would be exchanged in finding them good homes.
Any arrangement you decide to have though, make sure to get it down in writing in some form of legal document, and make sure to keep in touch with these people and bring this topic up from time - to - time to make sure they are still willing and able to care for your pets, in case something were to happen to you, in an emergency.
I'm not even necessarily talking about death, either; what if you become incapacitated and can not care for your animals? Stuff like that I think it is VERY important to get this stuff in order (obviously, death included).
Ashamed to say I haven't given it much thoughtMy brother would love to take my cat but not sure who would have the doggies.......
