Do you worry about what happens to your pet if something happens to you?

Many people ask us about how to plan for their pets care if something should happen to them. It is a difficult topic to think about or consider. But as volunteers in a shelter, we see so many animals brought in due to the loss of their owner. It is important to talk about your concerns with family and friends and to start planning for the sake of your pets.

There is an organization called 2nd Chance 4 pets that has a comprehensive website to help you plan accordingly. 2nd Chance 4 pets is a nonprofit 501(c)3 organization staffed by volunteers located throughout the United States and beyond. As an advocacy group, they provide education and resources to pet owners, veterinarians and animal care organizations in an effort to reduce the number of companion animals euthanized due to the death or disability of the humans who care for them.
