What is Promises To My Pet? Promises To My Pet is a process that helps you think through and make a pledge about how you'll care for your pet throughout the duration of his life. Promises To My Pet is a tool to help you to make healthcare decisions for your pet BEFORE they get sick--when you are not under emotional distress and can think clearly. This document serves as a record of your pet in his prime. Fill this out and file it away with your veterinarian. The pain of losing a pet is often compounded by the fact that we have to be the one to decide when it's time to let our pet go.
