Pets are important members of the household. A pet trust can make sure animal companions receive care if you become incapacitated or pass away.
You can name a specific caretaker or designate someone you trust to find the right permanent home. The plan can include practical instructions about veterinary care, routines, diet, and the animals’ individual needs.
Georgia law permits assets to be set aside for continued care through a lump-sum distribution or payments managed by a trustee.
Worth knowing
A clear plan prevents uncertainty and gives future caretakers the resources and direction they need.
