Does your client have pets?
Our beloved pets are much more than companion animals, they’re our family. So what would happen to them when we’re gone or no longer able to care for them?
RSPCA ACT’s Home Ever After Program is a free service, giving pet owners the peace of mind that their loved pet will be cared for if they if they pass away or are no longer able to care for them.

With Home Ever After their pets will be loved and protected by RSPCA ACT as soon as they arrive into our care. We will use our years of experience in animal adoption to find them a wonderful, loving new home. Home Ever After is a free service that we provide for the love of pets. We only ask that individuals consider including a gift in their Will to RSPCA ACT.
