pet-custody-best-interest

Produces a jurisdiction-aware best-interests analysis for companion animal disputes in domestic dissolutions. Classifies the governing framework (well-being statute, hybrid equitable, or pure property), builds distinct ownership/caregiving/control evidentiary threads, applies welfare factors with adversarial awareness, and generates enforceable allocation recommendations. Use when drafting pet custody analyses, animal allocation memos, pet possession briefs, or when a user asks about dividing pets in a divorce, breakup, or cohabitation dissolution.
