actually a really good idea if you live alone with pets…
like, if i get hit by a truck i don’t want my dog to starve to death….

That's not what en emergency contact is though, is it?

[–] ozymandias@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 6 days ago (1 children)

nope….
however, “in case of emergency, i have a pet at home alone”: is pretty important….
e.g. i’m adding my pet to my list of emergency contacts on my phone now… they’ll figure it out.

Oh, okay, that makes sense. We thought you meant more like a will and the dog gets the money.

[–] ozymandias@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

we thought that’s what an emergency contact is?

[–] oftheair@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

No, it's someone you or someone/somemany contacts in case you're in an emergency, not someone in a will necessarily, nor who needs help in an emergency from you necessarily either.

Ah, we thought they meant put them in the will.

There was a guy in my neighborhood that died of cardiac arrest at home with his 3 dogs. No one noticed for a few weeks and by the time someone did the dogs had eaten the body and only one dog was alive.

I still feel awful about not checking on him...

It's for OmniMan. Now he can add Debbie.

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 7 points 6 days ago

Wat he dead? I’m millionaire now?…woof.

That's not, from our understanding, usually what pet play involves.

[–] kibiz0r@midwest.social 8 points 1 week ago (2 children)

No option for “Master” though

[–] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago (1 children)

They changed it to "Main".

Obviously, the master would be the one signing up.

[–] Zoomboingding@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The pet doesn't get an emergency contact?

[–] oftheair@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 days ago

[Joke] No because they're not allowed to go anywhere without their owner.
