Insurance

We know how important your pet is to you and as such, we recommend that you insure your pet. One in three pets will require veterinary treatment this year. Perhaps this treatment will be a 'one-off' problem like broken bones after a road accident. It may equally be an on-going problem like diabetes, a skin allergy or arthritis. As medical and surgical treatments become more advanced, inevitably the cost of first class veterinary care increases and in some cases becomes a limiting factor. This can be a heart wrenching position to be in.

For a fraction of the cost of feeding your pet, it is now possible to insure him/her against accident, illness and injury. With the exception of vaccinations and elective procedures like neutering, all you pay in the event of a problem is the excess on your policy - the rest is taken care of and your pet gets the very best treatment that money can buy.

Selecting a policy

Take care - they come in all shapes and sizes! Be aware that some policies will only cover an illness for 12 months before cover stops while others provide life long cover for on-going conditions. Leaflets are available in reception. We recommend combining the 123 Club with an insurance policy to give you absolute peace of mind for all your pet's healthcare needs.

Key points

  • Some medical problems can be very expensive to treat
  • The daily cost of insurance is relatively low
  • Tailor your cover to your needs and your means
  • Start your insurance early before your pet develops any problems to avoid any exclusions.
