Peace of Mind: Ensuring the care of your pets when you no longer can
If you have pets, you want the comfort of knowing they will be cared for and loved if anything should happen to you. We strongly recommend that you remember your pets when crafting your estate plan. Find someone you can trust to leave them to and talk to this person so they know and agree to your wishes. However, if you do not have anyone to leave your pets to, Asheville Humane Society offers the Peace of Mind Pet Care Program to ensure your pet is taken care of when you are gone or in circumstances where you must go into assisted care.
Please note that this program requires a bequest agreement and some restrictions may apply. Please contact us using the form below for more information.
