Pet Insurance

These days, good quality veterinary care does not come cheap. Although our prices are very reasonable and competitive,we recommend pet health insurance. Remember, there is no point in taking out insurance to pay for a disease or illness that your pet has been diagnosed with. This would be excluded from the policy so start the insurance whilst your pet is young and healthy. Expect to pay slightly more for pedigreed dogs and cats. Rabbits can be insured too.

The features most important in choosing a policy are:

Does it cover illnesses for lifetime or just 12 months - there is no point in insuring your pet for a year only as many conditions are manageable nowadays and your pet may be on medication for many years.
Does it exclude dental disease (the most common reason to make a claim)?
Has the company offering the cover got the necessary track record in the pet health market?
Does it cover 3rd party liability - if your dog bites someone, or causes a car accident, you could be liable for a personal injury claim.
