WARNING: Make sure your insurance company give you lifetime cover-see below:
Our pets are
one of our best friends, yet we often leave them uninsured and the
consequences can be expensive.
Your dog or cat may suffer an accident, become ill, injure somebody,
or cause an accident on the road.
Pet insurance plans can
cover such eventualities as your pet having an accident, sickness,
compensation for having to cancel your holiday, money for advertising
or to pay a reward if your pet is lost or stolen. The level of cover
varies with each policy, but most provide cover for the following
categories: Vet Fees
Theft/Straying
Advertising/Reward
Third Party Liability
Accidental Damage

When a pet arrives
at the clinic after a road traffic accident or with a broken
leg the cost of treatment can be a concern for many people. Having you pet insured removes the question of how much will treatment cost and whether it can be afforded at that time.
Other conditions
which can become costly to treat over a period of time are what
are called CHRONIC diseases- this means that these diseases often
last for the lifetime of the pet and many can develop at early ages-
e.g. Arthritis, heart
disease, skin problems and allergies, cancer,
liver or kidney disease.
The most important advise we can give you is to ensure that your pet insurance gives you
LIFETIME COVER.
Make sure your
insurance covers illnesses and injuries for life.
This is invaluable if your pet develops an ongoing condition such
as arthritis or eczema, as some policies will
stop paying out after the first 12 months.
Many people have been very disappointed
with these policies.Or alternatively
offer a maximum benefit policy which means over the pet's lifetime
they will only pay up to a set figure per condition regardless
of the cost of treatment.
Two companies we recommend
which give LIFETIME
COVER are Vet2pet
and Petplan's
Covered for Life policy.
With these there is no time limit on how long you can
claim for each illness or injury, regardless of severity. All
you need to do is renew the policy each year and the full veterinary
fees benefit is reinstated.
We have the application forms
for these 2 companies at the clinic.
