Pet Insurance

Pet insurance (or pet health insurance as it is sometimes termed) is a must have for every pet owner. At its most basic level it will protect cat owners and dog owners from expensive vet bills but, more importantly, it will give your pet high quality treatment direct from your vet so that your pet recovers quickly and healthily from any accident or illness. Pet insurance protects you and your pet by providing a guaranteed sum each time your pet has to be treated at the vet for a range of conditions.

In most cases, your pet insurance provider will pay your vet direct so you don't even need to pay out in advance. So, not only does pet insurance give you peace of mind but it is very convenient in the event that your pet becomes ill or is involved in accident. But don't think that pet insurance stops there. The range of benefits available from pet insurance policies is extensive. Benefits available in pet insurance policies include:

Cover for accidents, illness, death, straying and theft
Pet travel insurance including cover for taking your pet abroad
Holiday cover – reimburses you for a holiday that you are unable to go on or cut short if your pet becomes ill or is involved in an accident
Sickness cover – pays for your cat or dog to go into a kennel or cattery if you are too ill to care for your pet
Lost pet cover – pays a lump sum to help you advertise and find a lost pet
Liability cover – cover in case your dog causes damage to property

Pet insurance is also available for rabbits, hamsters and birds so make sure you purchase rabbit insurance, hamster insurance or bird insurance if you own one of these pets. Many pet insurance providers also offer discounts if you take out more than one policy.
