Season 2 Ep. 24 Gifting pets in your Will

07 August 2025 The Vicca Law Podcast Season 2 Ep. 24 Gifting pets in your Will In this week's episode, we explore an often-overlooked aspect of estate planning: what happens to your beloved pets when you pass away. Pets are legally considered property under Queensland law, which means you can leave them to someone in your will just like any other personal asset. But unlike furniture or jewellery, pets are living beings that require ongoing care, attention, and financial support. Lidia Vicca discusses the legal framework for gifting pets in your will and highlights key considerations to ensure your furry (or feathered) companions are placed in the right hands. From choosing a suitable guardian to including provisions for pet expenses, this episode provides practical guidance to help pet owners safeguard their companions’ future with clarity and compassion.
