Can my will provide for my pet's future care and maintenance?

—Name withheld on requestAs pets are increasingly regarded as family members, structured planning for their long-term care is becoming an important part of estate planning. Your will should clearly identify the pet, including relevant details such as name and breed. It should appoint a primary caretaker responsible for the pet’s food, grooming, medical treatment, and overall welfare, with the caretaker's prior consent properly recorded in advance and clear care instructions set out. As a prudent safeguard, a secondary or backup caretaker may also be named.
