The Grantor gives the sum of {{grantor_sum ? '$' + grantor_sum : '$'}} and all of my dogs, cats, and any other animals of mine living at the time of my death or disability to the trustee hereunder, IN TRUST, for the following purposes and subject to the following terms and conditions:
This trust is created for the benefit of all of my dogs, cats, and any other animals of mine living at the time of my death (the "Beneficiaries" herein). The trust shall terminate upon the death of the last to die of the Beneficiaries.
This Pet Trust shall be subject to the laws of the State of {{state ? state : '__________________________'}} applying to trusts and trustees, now in effect or as amended. Any property held in the Pet Trust of the trust itself shall not be subject to any statutory or common law rule against perpetuities.
During the term of the trust, the trustee shall apply for the benefit of the Beneficiaries, any or all of the net income of the trust and however much or all of the principal of the trust from time to time, as the trustee shall in the trustee's discretion determine to be advisable for the care, including veterinary care, of the Beneficiaries. Any income accrued but not distributed for the benefit of the Beneficiaries shall be added to the principal of the trust.

I am creating this trust to provide for the care of my animals and the trustee does not need to consider the interests of the remainderman when making distributions. The trustee, in the trustee's discretion, may use all of the trust property for the benefit of my animals; even if the result is that nothing will pass to the remainderman.
Upon the termination of the trust, if any property remains in the trust at the time of termination, the trustee shall distribute any such income and/or principal to {{proceeds_left_over_name ? proceeds_left_over_name : '__________________________'}}, presently residing at {{proceedsLeftAddress ? proceedsLeftAddress : '__________________________'}}.
No bond shall be required of any Trustee named in this Agreement.
