Fat Cats & Lucky Dogs: How to Leave (some of) Your Estate to Your Pets

In this audio interview with Peggy Hoyt I discuss my book, ‘Fat Cats & Lucky Dogs: How to Leave (some of) Your Estate to Your Pets.’  This interview explores the ways people can plan for the well-being of their pets after they pass away.  Pet trusts have been gaining in popularity within the United States; today all fifty states now have some sort of pet trust statute with Louisiana and Minnesota being the most recent.  I go over the history of how Pet Trust Statutes developed and the ways people can use them to make sure their beloved pets are provided for.  This interview will hopefully give people the information they need to provide for their pets after they die.  No one wants their beloved companion to be sent to the shelter to walk the green mile after they pass away.
