It's a good way to let to those trusted to take care of your affairs know what you would want them to know. Since the letter of instruction is not a legal document, it does not need to be notarized or signed in the presence of witnesses or with any other special formality.
Basic Contents of a Letter of Instruction Firstly, it contains personal information, such as the executor's names and contact details. Secondly, it goes into specifics about the deceased's assets, delineating bank accounts, safety deposit boxes, and real estate properties, among other assets.
You should also write a 'Letter of Wishes' about your pets, giving details about their diet, activities, routine, vet's information, regime, medical care, insurance details, and even the special treats your pets enjoy.

1. Let the family members say goodbye. 2. Call your veterinarian or urgent care for help. 3. Transport/Storage 4. Decide to bury, cremate, or dispose 5. Honor your pet.
Most pets are cremated. Dead pets can be left behind with a veterinary and someone will pick up the bodies for destruction, meaning that they get cremated together with other dead pets. That is the least expensive option.
Including Your Pet in Your Will Once you have selected a caregiver for your pet, finalize the arrangement and include it in your will. This ensures that you are leaving formal instructions for who will take custody of the animal after your passing. You may also want to discuss setting up a trust with your attorney.
If a pet passes at home, an owner can bring the pet to their vet and request a cremation. Usually there are three options given when a pet is euthanized: private cremation, general cremation, or home burial. Private cremation is when the pet is cremated separately, and the ashes then put in an urn for the owner.
