Comment on Pet Trusts Arrive in Massachusetts by Kristina

You have some freedoms within the trust to make it less desirable for the caretaker to put the animal down. For example, if the animal passes, regardless of whether its by natural causes or euthanized, the caretaker no longer gets support payments. So it’s in caretaker’s best interest to keep the animal alive. You can designate the balance of the trust fund to an animal shelter or rescue group.
