Have you ever wondered what will happen to your pet if they outlive you? With Paws4ever's Legacy Care program, you will never have to worry. Our Legacy Care program offers pet parents peace of mind by ensuring their pets will be cared for if they outlive them. Meet our Legacy Care member, Roberta, and her adopted cat, Lulu:

Roberta moved to Chapel Hill 10 years ago, after the loss of her beloved cat, Monkey. Her new neighbor suggested she visit Paws4ever's Adoption Center to look for a companion to keep her company in her new home. Roberta fell in love with a tuxedo kitten (Lulu!) from our Adoption Center. Over the years, Lulu has become a deeply cherished friend. As Roberta approached her 75th birthday, she wanted to ensure Lulu’s future well-being. She enrolled Lulu in Paws4ever’s Legacy Care program, which guarantees Lulu will receive care if needed. Roberta also extended her compassion to pets in need by including Paws4ever in her estate plans. Now, she has not only secured Lulu's future but she is also creating a brighter future for so many more pets! We are so grateful for Roberta's dedication to pets in our community!

Roberta and Lulu's story highlights the importance of planning for you and your pet's future. We invite you to learn more about our Legacy Care program here: paws4ever.org/services/legacy-care/

A day in the life of Lucy, as told by her foster Olivia!:

"Lucy’s day consists of waiting by the door of the room that her food is kept in 2 hours before her actual feeding time, accompanying me while I eat my breakfast, laying in her favorite chair and falling asleep to the serene sound of the birds chirping, laying on her favorite catnip mat, making biscuits on me while I watch TV, rushing me to get to bed, and then ending the night with some cuddles!!"

Lucy is available for adoption! At Paws4ever, we value our foster community and their ability to extend love for these pets while they search for their forever home. Interested in fostering a pet? Learn more about becoming a foster here: paws4ever.org/get-involved/foster/

Did you know that August is national "Make-a-will" month? Consider including Paws4ever as a part of your legacy. We’d like to share a heartfelt testimonial from one of our dedicated supporters, Eileen:

"I first became involved with Paws4ever in the late 1980s, when it was the Animal Protection Society of Orange County. I volunteered on Sunday mornings, cleaning the cat litterboxes and giving the cats fresh food and water and a little love. Later, I was on the board of APS. Then my family life got too busy to volunteer and my support came primarily in the form of checks and participation in fundraising events. And I adopted two cats from the shelter.

I support Paws4ever because it provides a valuable service to the community by taking in animals that public shelters can’t keep and by giving those animals a safe, enriching environment until they find a forever home.

I particularly appreciate that Paws4ever recognizes the link between animal welfare and the humans those animals depend on. Making things work for the pet involves making things work for the people, so Paws4ever offers obedience classes, a pet supply pantry, veterinary assistance, pet behavior help, and a dog park. This is a large suite of services, and that costs money.

I contribute to Paws4ever and have put them in my will so that these services will continue to be available to our community."

We are so grateful to supporters like Eileen who choose to include Paws4ever in their estate plans. Their generosity ensures that we can continue providing the lifesaving services that benefit not only the animals in our care but also the people who love them.
