I was talking to mt brother-in-law about our pets.I have 2 cats an he has 4 dogs an 5 cats.Which him an his wife keeps indoors.He is a salesperson for frito-lay an his wife works at home doing medical transcript.So they have plenty of money an life insurance on themselfs. They have no Kids at all, they are in their 40s.He was telling me that all of his life insurance money will go to the humane Society when he dies.Which he said the amount would be around $300.000.I think the money should go to more like cancer research or other good charities.But still donate some to humane soceity cause they need money just as well to keep the animal shelters open an save the animals.Would you leave your life insurance to your pets? lol What was funny he never anything said about his wife being in the his will.I guess he loves his pets more.

I prepay the vet bills but don't use insurance which is available and very expensive. You hear about little old ladies leaving their fortunes to the cats all the time but I think that is silly. Ensuring your pets are cared for is a commendable priority but if you have no one to leave your estate to then society might as well benefit from your donation.
