When You Can No Longer Care for Your Pet
|
|
|
|
|
There are unfortunately situations when you can no longer care for your dog or cat. Sometimes you must move to a place that does not allow them. Sometimes it’s just too much for you. Hopefully you have friends or relatives who can help. Some people put ads in the local newspaper. In any case this is a traumatic circumstance that you should plan for well in advance.
Animals at Risk Care Sanctuary (AARC Sanctuary) is committed to providing lifetime care for domestic animals in a homelike setting. This non-profit organization allows people to set up a lifetime trust for their pets. This ‘pet retirement through estate planning’ concept gives people the added assurance someone will care for their pets upon the death of their human companion.
Click here to reach Animals at Risk Care Sanctuary.
AARC Sanctuary is unique in that it provides a lifetime refuge for domestic pets. Animals left in the care of AARC Sanctuary are not available for adoption. They are lovingly cared for during the remainder of their lives while residing at our pet retirement home, along with their live-in pet nanny/caregiver. They receive quality care and comfort while living in a safe, permanent, homelike atmosphere, WITHOUT caging.
You can get information from your local Human Society.
You can check with The Lander Pet Connection which provides the following information on its Web site: “We love all animals, and have a deep and abiding respect for all kinds of life. We spay/neuter, pay for vet care, boarding/fostering for homeless strays, unclaimed “pound” dogs and cats. We maintain a list of unwanted pets and match them with people wanting to adopt. Since November 1998 not one healthy pet in our community has been euthanized due to our efforts! And a total of 2500 dogs and cats have been placed in new homes. We are non-profit 501 C-3organization and exist only on donations from caring animal lovers. Donations are tax deductible.”
You can also get help provided by Animals at Risk Care Sanctuary located in Stanislaus County, California. It is a non-profit organization staffed entirely by volunteers. Click on “links” on this site for an excellent list of rescue and other U.S. organizations that can help.
