Still Need a Caregiver For Your Pet Trust?
Who will be the caregiver?
This is the most difficult question that needs to be answered when doing estate planning for animals.
Most of us do not want to impose those daunting responsibilities on unwilling friends or families.
If you cannot find someone to appoint as the caregiver for your pet trust, you might consider a Homeless Animal Rescue Team or H.A.R.T.
There are many H.A.R.T locations throughout the United States.
These are 501(c) (3) non-profit organizations formed to provide care and shelter for neglected, abused and abandoned animals.
They are generally local and actively engaged in monitoring the animals in the area and assisting in the placement in temporary and then permanent homes.
Although there is no national headquarters that I know of, you should be able to find a local H.A.R.T. in your area.
