5.0 out of 5 stars A "must-read" book for all true pet lovers, August 11, 2002
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
Collaboratively written by David Congalton and Charlotte Alexander, When Your Pet Outlives You: Protecting Animal Companions After You Die is a solidly written and "user friendly" resource for pet owners wanting to ensure that their animal companions are taken care of in the event of the death of the pet owner -- especially since pets are legally classified as property under American law and as such cannot lawfully inherit money directly. Setting up a pet trusts and veterinary care contracts, and the wide variety of options to ensure one's pets are taken good care of, and more are all discussed in depth in a "must-read" book for all true pet lovers.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm glad I found this book!, August 8, 2002
By A Customer
I discovered "When Your Pet Outlives You" thanks to a friend of mine who knew I was worried about my beloved cats. My wife and I have four beautiful four-legged children and we are constantly worried about what would happen to them should something happen to us. Not anymore! I took this book to our attorney and asked him to set up a pet trust just like Congalton and Alexander suggested. Thank you Charlotte and David!

Following their suggestions, I've made sure that my cats will be loved and cared for, no matter what happens to me. Can't recommend it highly enough.
