What if your pet outlives you? How would you provide for him? If for some reason you are no longer able to care for your pet and you are concerned about your pet’s future, please consider our Continuing Care Program which will provide peace of mind for you and a comfortable, natural lifetime for your pet if and when it is needed. If arrangements are made in advance, you can enjoy the company of your pet until your situation changes, and not worry about what will happen to your beloved companion afterward. You can and should make provisions for your pet in case something happens to you. Planning will not only prevent your pet from being homeless, it also will prevent tension among other family members who may not want to adopt your pet.

Our program is simple. Complete one enrollment form for each of your pets, which we will keep on file here at the sanctuary. If you are no longer able to care for your pets or if they should outlive you, we will immediately finalize arrangements with your representative, family member, or executor to have your pets transported to our facility. This program is available to your pets regardless of where you reside.

We will provide afection, quality food, comfortable shelter and state-of-the-art medical care for your pets until they can be adopted into new loving homes. If we are unable to find new forever homes for your pets, they will be able to live out their lives in comfort and security at the sanctuary.

The program is flexible. Our Minimum Enrollment Fees can be funded in two ways:

• If you fund your pets' care at the time of enrollment, you will pay a reduced rate of $5,000 per pet. This option will allow us to take in your pets if you become incapacitated or are otherwise unable to care for them.
• If paid on a deferred basis through a bequest in your will or trust, by making SFAS a beneficiary of your life insurance policy or retirement plan or other type of planned gift, the minimum fee is $7,500 per pet.
