2nd Chance 4 Pets – Ensure lifetime care for your pets if you were no longer able to. This organization works to reduce the number of pets that are euthanized in the United States due to the death or disability of their human companions. Each year, more than 500,000 pets are surrendered to U.S. shelters because their owners passed away and had not made plans for the continued care of their pets. Many of these healthy, adoptable pets are euthanized in shelters.
