A Pet's Last Will & Testament
Before humans die, they write their last Will & Testmanet, give their home and all they have to those they leave behind. If, with my paws, I could do the same, this is what I'd ask...
To a poor and lonely stray I'd give:
My happy home.
My bowl & cozy bed, soft pillows and all my toys.
The lap, which I loved so much.
The hand that stroked my fur & the sweet voice which spoke my name.
I'd Will to the sad, scared shelter dog, the place I had in my human's loving heart, of which there seemed no bounds.
So, when I die, pleasae do not say, "I will never have a pet again, for the loss and pain is more than I can stand."
Instead, go find an unloved dog, one whose life has held nojoy or hope and give MY place to HIM.
This is the only thing I can give...
The love I left behind..

Suffering is Equal to Pain for Animals – Do Animals Suffer | petMD
This may also be a first step in getting courts to more readily recognize the sentient nature of animals and help them to move away from a pure personal property definition.

DSJ: Choosing a Pet Insurance Plan
Want to know more about pet insurance? This article is a good place to start. I don't have any of my pet's on an insurance plan, including my horses. One friend discovered the value of insurance on her horse when it suffered a very serious colic. The insurance not only helped to pay for the cost of the veterinary care, it also provided funds for another horse.
