Even though I have picked a person (not a family member) and provided for my guys in my will, I worry too. A lot of people want their pets killed when they die....especially parot owners. I can't go that route.

I worry about that too. I also have turtles and tortoises that could easily live 50 years or more. I'm 43 so hopefully I have a few good years left, but what will happen when I'm 80 and can't lift a 60 pound tortoise? What if I die in a car accident on the way to Petsmart tonight? We sometimes get large groups of cats or dogs at the shelter who end up there because somebody died and relatives don't want them. One shelter visitor told me that she wants her dogs euthanized when she dies, and that's written into her will.

My parents left me enough money to comfortably provide for
all my cats, BUT the question that concerns me is WHO will
care for them?  I have three grown kids and grown grandkids
and all of them love cats, but they have a bunch of their own.

I would like to find someone to move into our house and take
care of them.  I'd even give them the house, and it's a very nice
house in a resort area on a lake in the eastern mountains of WV.

So far in my will I've left 1,000 per cat to help them find
good homes, but how do I know someone won't take the money and
dump the cat?

I worry about my fur babies constantly.  They are my life. If
anyone has any good ideas about what I can do please e-mail me
personally.

Consider providing for them in your will.  I had a lawyer draw up one
leaving everything in trust for the care of my guys.

Wow, Natalie, that is impressive.  You definitely have a lot
more cats than we have.  I'd take in more if my hubby and I
weren't so ancient (77 and 88)  but I'm afraid when we die
we'll leave a bunch of orphans. It's a constant worry, and
we have no rescue group to help...... We're it!
