PET INSURANCE

Veterinary treatment can be expensive but if your beloved dog - cat or any other pet is injured or sick it is essential.

Choosing the right pet insurance cover will ensure your pets get the treatment they deserve. This is essential if your pet were to develop an ongoing condition such as diabetes or arthritis which would require treatment year-after-year.

Your Pet is a member of your family his/her quality of life is important to you and your pet relies on you to give it the best life possible.

A Pet Insurance plan offers a financial solution to your veterinary bills so you can focus on providing your pet optimal health rather than on the cost of healthcare. If your pet becomes ill, providing the best care quickly without worrying about costs will be priority.

Why do pets need insurance?

Each year 1 in 3 pets fall ill or are injured - that's more than 4.5 million cats and dogs.

There is no animal NHS and the average emergency visit to the vet will set you back around £300. So if your pet was to have an accident or need emergency medical treatment it could end up costing you hundreds, if not thousands, of pounds.

Take a look below at some of the most common reasons for going to see a vet:

Some of the main reasons for making an unexpected trip to the vet include:

1. Cuts/lacerations - 2. Lameness - 3. Road traffic accident - 4. A growth - 5. Abscess - 6. Bites

7. Foreign body (swallowed) - 8. Pyrexia/anorexia of unknown origin - 9. Gastro-enteritis

10. Ear infections.

Your Pet insurance would cover all of these common conditions. And it doesn't have to be expensive either. Pet cover is becoming increasingly essential as the cost of vets' bills continues to rise.

Technological advancements in veterinary medicine have meant that vets are able to provide more comprehensive treatments and this has caused bills to rise steadily. Yet insurance itself can start from just a few pounds a month, enabling you to avoid most of these unexpected costs, whenever they arise.
